I have been trying to work out what was going on by looking at various Twitter accounts, hardly any clues.
Whitehawk have ultras?
When are we getting some?
I was at the game. There was a bit of animosity after the previous fixture with some limited chat online. The match and atmosphere was standard for this level. Yes some joker on a wind up put stickers in the toilet to antagonise the left leaning Whitehawk fans.
Then at the end of the match there was a group of 20 or so guys dressed as ultras (caps scarves over faces) getting lairy with the stewards and you could clearly see they were after trouble, waiting at the exit, not watching the match. They weren’t speaking English either (not that that is a problem just a point of fact). I left at the final whistle so didn’t see the attack on the coach but that is clear from the videos.
The poster above mentions that all he saw was chicken being thrown on the pitch, and perhaps that is true but I’m struggling to see how he missed this group.
Overall can a bloke not take his 2 sons to a non league match without fear of being attacked?
Apparently this lot aren't even from Whitehawk, they are a little wannabe Antifa outfit from the uni.
