15 NUFC fans who've today pleaded guilty

[Kubicki's right boot]

Police deal to fit up the SAFC lads on trial in February?

[Ghost in the Machine]

I know nothing about this incident aside from what I've read on here, however, may I ask one entirely innocent question. How come the Newcastle fans appeared to know our lads were being dropped off at the station?

is it not safe to assume all trains from edinburgh go via newcastle?

im not defending anyone here but if you want to look for bother it would be the logical thing to assume?

The train in question was announced to be terminating in Sunderland, that's why the lads got on it in Auld Reeky. It wasn't announced to be stopping at Central Station, let alone terminating there.

No.

Both sets of fans were fucked from the start.

Football fans v NP, it's no contest i'm afraid.

There would be a fucking media uproar if they treat Rugby fans in the same manner but that's one of many prices you pay to be a football fan.

Guilty unless you can prove otherwise.

The NUFC fans have been in court today, pleaded guilty and it's gone off for sentencing. Separate case to the SAFC lads but all to do with the same incident, or so the Police will say.
