I was sat in the Osmond yesterday and this certainly wasn’t just the doing of Town fans! The Yeovil lads were doing their very best to wind people up. One Town fan took exception to this and eventually thrown out by the stewards.

The Yeovil fans carried on antagonising the Town section, mainly from a group of around 30, many of which looked about 16, some Town lads, having had enough started gesticulating back and motioning over to them. Kicked off when the second goal went in, town fans expectedly celebrated in front of the Yeovil section, one lad took it upon himself to try jump into the Town section and was promptly stopped by police and stewards, not before spitting in the face of a Town fan, he was then cuffed.

I don’t condone the abuse of the players when they came over the clap their travelling supporters but this certainly wasn’t instigated by Town lads, not from why I saw anyway.

It’s taken 6 pages for someone who saw what happened to put the record straight, and thank you for doing so. I’m far from a Stone Island’er myself, but I’m glad we’ve got to the bottom of it and established that it wasn’t town fans at fault this time. We are too quick to judge our own.

Ffs didn’t realise Yeovil had a firm … perhaps the end of football violence hasn’t reached Somerset yet 🙃

'Trouble over Bridgewater.'

Did not see any trouble from the UF.

But did post a few days ago that there was fighting last Sat, both before and after their FAC local derby match. Police horses and Police dogs had to be used to break up trouble.

I posted that they would not bring enough fans to cause trouble at BP.  Maybe I was wrong?

Quoted from HertsGTFC
For years there have been pockets of bell ends in and around BP we have one in the first section of the upper near where we sit.

They walk in sit down on kick off, go to the bar after 38 mins and model the latest Stone Island jackets and baseball caps. They’ll be stood up in their seats next Saturday offering out the Notts County fans, booing the knee and shouting abuse in front of young kids…… “geezers”?….. “boys”? …… “lads”? No just throwbacks who belong in the 70s & 80s.


Yeah not going pretend we don't have bell - ends in the crowd, but that is a poor generalised view. I'm very lucky to have a good job and be able to wear SI, CP etc...My money , My choice. This does not make  Me Fight opposition,  Boo the knee or anything else you level at certain folk. Think it's your views that are in the " 70's , 80's if I'm honest. UTM , ATAW 👍
