I thought Cass Pennant invented it.

no-ones denying United and many other teams used to have and still do have a certain 'boisterous' element.

What makes this different is that Scottish fans in general, and Rangers & Celtic in particular are CONSTANTLY banging on about how great their support is, just a big bunch of lovable Jockos on the lash but great with it.

Load
Of
%@#$&!s

Oh, and as for hooliganism, been around for decades - my local non-league cloggers were fined and forced to play behind closed doors in the 30s after fighting spilled into the pitch and involved players, officials too.

Agree about the mess, largely unavoidable, I have been involved in running free concerts for 70,000, they make a mess, bear in mind this is 100,000 plus Jocks on the piss all day - even if they were all inclined to put everything in the bin, and behave, there would be a £#%&!ing great mess.

Perhaps. Who cares. The point is that United have been at the forefront of football hooliganism for as long as I can remember and have one of the worst reputations and largest arrest statistics in the country.

I’ve always thought Scottish football fans were portrayed as being fun loving friendly types but never Rangers fans.

Quite the opposite – they have a pretty bad reputation linked unsurprisingly to the loyalist dog-shit they cover themselves in. In particular, I can remember them being strongly linked with the far right wing racist elements of City’s and Chelsea’s support in the 80’s and 90’s.

Horrible vile bastards.

I think Bedders etc are in that crowd.

Must be 500 on about 10 there.

Happens every game at United as well.

More footage on Sky News now of the brainless @#%&!s attacking some poor £#%&!er's car that happened to be in their way.

they're not all bad then

Yep. We always make sure we're draped in Union Jacks while we're doing it too. They're like our spiritual brothers when you think about it

I hate little Inglunders.

Listen, i'm no big fan of the plod, but whichever way you paint it - for a mob of 30 of you to chase someone down and then beat them is cowardly and disgusting.

Oh yeah, every united euro away there's hundreds of us chasing coppers down streets and smashing cars up.
