[News] Burnley v Cardiff fans violence

[Durlston]

Given the importance of this match, it's too tempting for the Soul Crew not to turn up. I hope Sussex police are prepared........

Got to say in my years of supporting Albion, the worst fan behaviour I've seen was from Cardiff. Not just saying it because we're up against them now. Just remembering trips to Ninian Park, where big groups of lads were rounding on the young and the blatantly not up for fighting (for example, me... but not just me) in a more thuggish and aggressive way than I've seen anywhere else.

At first glance I thought it was President Macron’s snatch squads beating on the old and disabled again.

I think this is absolutely disgusting. Why oh why do people insist on filming in portrait orientation?

Ninian Park was a place I visited only once- and made suitable preparation to be there and away quickly.

Post-match tomorrow if we win might be interesting...

Yes, I agree. Two trips to Ninian Park in the old days and it was very unpleasant. While all violence is undesirable, their habit of picking on innocents while they themselves are in large groups is cowardly and sickening. I would like to see some of these tossers fight one-on-one with someone who can really fight - that is how angry they made me. I guess they would not be up for that.

Cardiff fans claim to hate the English well get out of our league then sheep dippers.

How much more before mums and dads decide its not safe to take their children to football, as we regress to to the 70s and early 80s

Not a nice video to watch admittedly, but we are nowhere near the mad, bad days of the 70s and 80s. I’ve been to loads of home and away games over the last few years. I have taken various family members along, daughters, sons-in-law, grandchildren and not once have I/we encountered any trouble.

I’m of the mind that these days if you’re looking for trouble you’ll find it, and the consequences that go with it. If you’re just off to watch the footie, have a few beers and a laugh then you’ll be alright.

And we think we are more civilised than other countries

Do we? There aren't many places on earth less civilized than a British high street on a Friday night.

The times I went with my mate it was fine but they were absolute nutcases, seeking out Brighton's firm although I did get kicked from a Taffy with a moustache on my own in the late nineties; it was hard not to laugh at him. There's a breed of them that all look the same!

Can't understand anyone that gets involved nowadays. Everyone has a camera on them now and you're guaranteed to be on social media within the hour. A few doors will be getting knocked over the next few weeks I think

Because they’re thick?

There's one: a British high street on a Saturday night.

I was quite shocked when on a night out in Paris not so long ago on a weekend, it was pretty similar to your typical British West Street in the area I was in! Australia is very similar also from experience
