There’s was loads of coppers in the away end and I still saw stuff getting thrown over. How is that the owners fault? I couldn’t see them doing anything about it...apart from taking that Mag top from that sad twat in the second half.

Today, things failed mate. Whether it was the coppers, or the stewards, they made a monumental mess of things. There will be kids who won’t want to go back, and that is ulimately the fault of the club who are responsible for safety.

It’s a personal choice for me to pay nearly £1k for season cards in the north stand, but I don’t expect no protection when morons are trying to hurt folk. Today was shameful

No worries. But something needs doing or it’ll just occur again. I notice that Donald and Methven are very quiet on the matter today. No tweets from Donald this time, very easy being a good owner when we’re winning, bit different having a proper response when things like this happen.

I’m not one to condone violence, but I’m enjoying the various videos on social media of Coventry fans getting a kicking, given how much they’ve ruined my daughters day
 
Football Supporters Federation might help, think Peter Daykin who's a big lads fan still has a senior position with them. When I worked on the railway he helped out when the Sunderland fans were kettled by the Polis at Central Station post Hearts away.

Not about the defending (although I acknowledge there is a strong case for it) but about the vile pieces of scum throwing missiles during the game & how it was allowed to continue. I appreciate there is another thread(s) on this subject but I havent read every post so I'm not sure if it has been mentioned there.

I was in the north east corner with my Mrs & kids, luckily nothing landed on us but we saw a number of objects thrown throughout the game & it didnt make pleasant viewing. We almost went in the north stand today as well. The police & stewards were useless. Do we complain to the club, the football league, independent police complaints commission or someone else? I'm not sure what the appropriate channels are but this kind of thing cant be allowed to happen again. Someone could get seriously hurt, I just hope nobody did today

What are the police in their control room looking at,they must have saw bottles etc being thrown why could they not send stewards to stop them.
 
Fuck all done to minimise problems that all and sundry knew all week, paying at the gate selling alcohol etc and zero tolerance to them, fuck all enjoy the money Mr Donald Mr Methven

Read on their board that none of this happened today and we always play the victim. There is the odd reasonable fan condemning the behaviour though.

It’s only by the grace of god, we are not discussing someone being killed by the objects. On two or three occasions I saw objects smash into seats

The amount of stewards & polis in front of the home end tunnel NWC side too tota,lay out of proportion

Yet they could see the objects been hurled but did fuck all about it

My bairns 7 and she actually pointed out to me that some parents were leaving with kids to get away from it. I asked if she wanted to go but she said no so I just sat covering her head

Iam ashamed to be associated with the club for allowing this to happen. There is no way you should have been able to pay on the gate for away supporters.
Clearly there is no strategy for dealing with this type of incident. They blatantly allowed missiles to be rained down on families. The safety officer and police should have stopped the game and evacuated the north stand. One missile, just one could have killed someone and they stood and watched it. Scandalous

Two of their fans, who were at the front of the north upper, are cowards of the highest order. One was a middle aged bloke in a body warmer and had his hair pinned back (I know :lol:) and the other was in a yellow stone island coat. Both mocked upset kids as objects continued to rain down. Utter f***ing scum.

Both of them were laughing as kids cried.
