Stewards needn’t have bothered stopping the scrap, if they are true fans of Ruud Boys Barmy Army there wouldn’t be a shot on target in that melee. 

Wasn’t a blue on blue scrap, stewards targeted fans for certain chants

This is cringy as ****.. Other then having a Mrs and children, there is nothing else to be proud off in that. 

I’m debating a crowd fund to buy him some full stops.

Of course! Here's your text rewritten in an exquisite, upper-class English style:


The truth of the matter is that the so-called "old school" tend to appear for the more significant fixtures, bedecked in their Stone Island attire, yet when the moment demands true courage, they invariably falter.
I was, in my day, a founding and prominent member of the YBS; in those early years, it was invariably we, the younger generation, who were willing to stand our ground. We were, if I may say, game as anything.
From what I hear, the young lads of today still show similar spirit (I myself am now thirty, with a wife and children, and have long since stepped away from such matters).
It infuriates me to see these so-called veterans, now perched safely in the family stands, dressed head to toe in Stone Island finery, yet when trouble threatens to brew, they hide behind the excuse of having their children with them. That, of course, is entirely understandable — but if one is no longer willing to stand firm, then one ought not to don the uniform of those who are still prepared to do so.
Most of these so-called 'lads' have never truly been involved in anything resembling a proper altercation. I would wager that, out of fifty men — despite the grand claims that "two hundred" were present — no more than a dozen would actually step forward.
The remainder scurry back to the tavern and, with no shortage of audacity, boast of encounters that never truly occurred.


Would you like a version that's even more formal or slightly more old-fashioned, depending on the tone you're aiming for?

That’s perfectly understandable. I’m not thick, just don’t understand gobbledygook.

Stereotypical sexist ones about the odd few females in the Wolves end. Not great but no more than than the ones they aimed at Vardy all game

It’s sobering to think that if we don’t score against Southampton or Ipswich then, come August, they’ll be babies born that were conceived after we last scored at home!

Tbf, we have taken a royal ****ing every week for 9 months so pregnancy is inevitable.

Hi guys

 

 

Can I ask, why were any Leicester fans there? 

 

 

Cheers 

 

Perplexed of Leicestershire 

They wanted to clap the players.

What do you expect after watching 9 months of crap frustration is at boiling point .... if losing games in the fashion we do ... does not hurt you or anger you  .... maybe you need a different sport ... something at a slower more mundane pace such as snooker

When does the fighting start??

A question that i first heard asked in an evening home game against Cambridge United, at the start of the 1979/80 season. 

My brothers mate had family from Los Angeles over, and the two young children were especially excited to be able to go to their first "Soccer match" in England.

Now normally we would be in the Kop, but it was felt that being seated in the East Stand would be better on this occasion, with having the young kids and their parents with them.

So anyway, we were there quite early, and the two young boys seemed to be transfixed on looking at the kop as it filled up, and this was back in the day before concourse`s, and as the kop filled up, and the nearer to kick off time it got, and of course more of the fans that had been on the piss turned up, some songs were sung, and the boys were loving it. 

Then the teams come out, game kicks off, and yet the boys are still watching the kop, and have little interest in the game.

After about 5 minutes or so, the eldest of the two boys pipes up, "When does the fighting start"?

My brothers mate asked what he meant, and he said, that he had heard back in the Staes that there was always fights at the "Soccer games" in England, at which point it was pointed out to him, that, that wasn`t the case, and that this was only Cambridge, and it was highly unlikely that there would be any fighting that night.

Remember this happening in L1 a couple of times when we first moved in there, tensions are high so you can see why it does happen now and then.

 

everyone should be fuming

I relate to this.

My elder cousin took me to my first game. Very early 90s v wolves.  Toward the end he said come on we better go.  I said,  very excited "why is it gonna kick off".......no he said, i want to beat the traffic 😂

 

I dont condone violence and i take my daughter to matches these days so i wouldn't want her caught up in anything but there is some truth in the fact that part of the attraction and excitement for a young lad in those days was the possibility of trouble .

All the different factions of the fanbase fighting each other the apologists who will defend the owners because of everything they have done for us/success we've had with them vs the realists who now look at the state of the club and the fast decline of the club and the team.

Considering that the “Happy Clappers” are pilloried for going for years then presumably they’ll still be supporting City when the “boo boys” have deserted them.

I highly suspect the boo boys were too. 
 

A common label aimed at the most vocal within the ground too

We must be the only club where wanting the team to win instead of lose can get you beaten up :teehee:

We're certainly the only team where Grandmas over 75 and the morbidly obese outnumber young men in the stands
