Hi lads, a Burnley supporter in peace here. I came onto your forum with the intention of assessing your supporters views of the game yesterday and the officiating standards, however I noticed this thread regarding the trouble.
I witnessed the back end of it where the elderly woman was on the floor and some of your lads were getting back on one coach through the side door where the toilet is.
Looking at the video extracts it was extremely disappointing that this kicked off like it did and possibly some of your lads got out of the coach to join in to defend their own? I did notice yesterday, before and after the game that there were dozens of so called Burnley fans, I would prefer to call them idiots looking for trouble. This has been the first time this season I have seen it around Burnley. There is no place for this and it just a pity there wasn’t an adequate police presence in the area where it happened to possibly prevent it and arrest some of the idiots involved.
I attended the Sunday tea time fixture at your place earlier in the season and stayed over on the Sunday night in your excellent vibrant city. Me and a few other lads from Burnley had an enjoyable evening drinking beer and talking football with some of your supporters. Anyway, I would like to apologise for the behaviour of a few dick heads and wish you lads well for the forthcoming game against Brighton. Get 3 points there and it will be game on again. You have been unlucky with refereeing decisions of late and should have had at least one penalty yesterday. I don’t know what Neil Warnocks plans are beyond the end of the season but I think the guy is a character and great for football. Good luck Bluebirds
