The Trouble At Bath....

Is it just me (probably) ? or does anyone else feel a bit cringeworthy about the trouble at Bath yesterday?
Firstly, it was a pre-season 'friendly' against a team I have only heard about a handful of times. AND it was hardly a Millwall/West Ham/Swansea type game where we expect a good old rumble in the back alleys!

Amusing stories have filtered through the good old airwaves of Facebook but come on....I can recommend a good old Boxing Club in Roath if you want to prepare for the season when we take on some decent 'clubs'.....

Anyway, that's my thought for the morning. As you were......

sarah im shocked a good ole rumble in the back alley i thought you were classier

I think the Bath supporters were shocked how many of us turned up. I bet they have never experienced that before.

Us Cardiff fans stood in their "Grange End" behind one of the goals while the loud Bath supporters stood on the corner of the Bob Bank next to us. Only a gate separated us. Fair play to them though they had quite an impressive flag on display. It was about 4 times larger than the Malaysian flag we are all use to now and the design was your typical St. George cross with a few mottos on it. They had it hanging from the roof and I've got to say again it was impressive. However this did cite one of our guys to produce a German flag which resulted in songs being sung about some 4-1 vixtory. that brought a smile to my face.

The police soon after escorted those Bath fans to the opposite stand behind the other goal. The huge flag reappeared there. Same really because I felt it killed the atmosphere a bit. That was until the gorl with the big boobs appeared to our right and above where there was some house garden that overlooked the ground.

And didnt she get the usual chants lol tight fuckers wouldnt pay to get in lol saving diesel for their conbine harvester no doubt

Didnt see any trouble heard there was some shit nr the train station tho.

Yeah.....she moved to the town centre after the match, I saw her by that Chineese takeaway. From close up her face looked like it had been run over by a combined harvester.

Never Saw any trouble and all those I was with had a great night

Same here apart from the 1 guy pissed as f**k and sleeping before we even got to newport


I had a cracking evening out Nice seeing you again mate

I saw no trouble, I've not mentioned that. In fact we mixed in well with the locals.

Only trouble being reported is coming from the supporters bus. Perhaps we should ban the supporters club......JOKE.

me niether altho the spray painted wall was pathetic as was the tool who threw a can of Bow at our bus and smashed the window , waste of a good drink that ! Seriously tho luckily bus windows are double glazed so only the outer glass shattered and nobody hurt , pity there was so many kids on the bus and they dont need so see stuff like that .

I didn't come accross any trouble all day, was a great trip.

Went to the bus stop after the game where we had to wait about 20 minutes for a bus, then went to a Wetherspoons by the station before getting the 22:30 train home. Speaking to a copper there though and he said a train around 9 o clock was full of City fans and they had to be escorted home by police.

As for the day as a whole, great day out, new ground for me. Can't wait for the start of the season now.

didnt see any trouble.
was in bath pubs till 11pm great people in there and a great laugh.
even took a strole down the road after reports filtered back of window getting smashed, just met by a load of gobby chavs and people threatening me out of the flats above
scary

Was it the youth rushing the local old bill to get a burger??????
or the late taking of the bath end by the under 8s

1 of the tramps must have picked up the half full can of Bow that hit the bus window

I heard 200 Millwall turned up and it was toe-to-toe for most of the day and numerous mounted police charges, police with batons and full riot gear using snatch squad tactics to collar trouble makers. There'll be a few doing some pretty heavy bird for yesterday's antics and we'll be unwelcome at any grounds for friendlies in future

I love how it's a serious article and then that one liner at the end CARDIFF CITY WON 2-0

http://www.thisisbath.co.uk/sport/Teenager-arrested-amid-storm-tea-bar-City-game/article-2399317-detail/article.html

Was it even worth running the story?

just the bit, Cardiff City won 2-0 would have been suffice.

load of bollux over nothing.
the only sign of tension i sawe was when milly stomed their blockbuster for a bar of choclate.

and that came from the girl with the ample chest and her massive, as they had moved down to the corner of the shops to hum along to the mosquito

oh yeh city won 2-0

"Teenager arrested amid storm in a tea bar at City game"



Says enough doesn't it?


New to football by anychance? not meaning to be condescending?

400 + city fans 1 arrested, and for what? Probably pissing on a wall

Big trouble there, as said above somerset and wiltshire police drafted in an extra 400 officers to descend on twerton park to keep the town a safe haven for locals after violence flared between Cardiff city And Bath City fans during a friendly, police quickly moved in to clear the huge Cardiff mob off the terrace leading to the home supporters. Running battles were seen all over the City of Bath before, during and after the game. Funny as
