A few Watford fans reporting they got hit randomly outside the stadium. Anyone see anything?

Never heard of this happening at the AMEX before.

Didn't see anything at the ground, but there were a few herberts kicking off pre-match at the traffic lights going up Queens Road, at least one of them got surfed in front of some beeping cars.

No idea but there was a group of Watford fans walking down to the station outside the East stand being particularly obnoxious. Wouldn’t surprise me if someone had slapped one of them.

We always jog past away fans, on our way to the park n ride. Because they’d lost, I said look out for stray feet trying to trip you up.

Watford folk looked understandably fed up.

There were police drones in the sky after the game so hopefully anyone commiting random acts of violence will be convicted with those 360 degree 4k cameras and banned for life.

Considering there was a time we invited away fans in for a post game beer in the NS to help avoid the queues this comes as something of a shock and surprise. Of course there are a couple of teams’ fans that wouldn’t be welcome, but Watford wouldn’t be one of them. Hope the catch the **** and ban him for life .

Happened at a Friday night game at the Amex against Leeds the season you won promotion. Just as we got on a train at Brighton station for the Amex, a group of Brighton fans punched a young Leeds fan about 15 years old in the face. Other Leeds fans went to his aid but there was no more punches thrown. The Brighton guy who hit him was big - with a full beard and wore a full-length black leather coat. During the game one of our groups other half went to the ladies and didn't return so after the game we searched everywhere for her and waited for someone to check the ladies so we were one of the last out of the ground. As we walked past the away end to walk towards the station, we recognised the same big fella with his small gang picking off Leeds fans on their own. We went to the stewards who stepped in but a few minutes later the same group were at it again.

No excuse for violence but the Leeds away support are amongst the very worst of what I've experienced watching the Albion. Proper vitriolic homophobia, shameful stuff.

Most clubs still seem to have them, pathetic scum.

Personally I like to see the presence of police, over stewards on their own.

The Albion do love extremely lengthy bans. I wonder if the bearded coward is no longer welcome, his ‘luck’ run out?
