I have sympathy with the fans, 100 per cent. It’s a tipping point for them. It was peaceful. One or two bottles were thrown and a couple of flares - I think that was towards Jamie to be fair - but they’ve had enough.

Bloody hell. We might even get proper trade unions next. People have been cowed, and had the things they value dearly undermined by money grabbing bastards for 40 years now.
If only this wasn't just restricted to football. Watch the backlash to this tomorrow. Violence! Ooh, a flare was thrown! Even more scandalous, people behaving in in a way that can't be monetized.

Also any future games now are more likely to have greater security outside the ground. Any new protests will require a very different strategy.

differenf derivation obviously but an interesting assonance. Can’t imagine he’d tolerate the same language being used about say Philip Green by a Labour supporter.
