Albion punishment

[QB Wolf]

If you read their forums some fans have started receiving letters of immediate suspension from the stadium.
I really don't see why they should be rewarding these people.

Any links, can only see the Blues 1.

Thank you, but I probably could have worded it better. I was referring to action by the FA over the game being suspended.

Ask them if they e seen the videos, it’s usually a no

Also, footballers wives are usually quite vocal on social media.

Has she or any of her friends mentioned this alleged incident?

[Teddy Ruxpin]

Bloody hell thats a tough read, they really are stuck on trying to take the high ground over this, even asking what punishment the Wolves fans will get.

I can't remember the year but I do recall their fans being in the Steve Bull lower when we played them and jumping up and down when they scored.

Amazingly half our fans didn't run across from 3 other stands to sort him out* Away fans will always be in the home end during games, and yes a local derby is certainly more of a risk I wouldn't expect the mass hysteria to erupt that happened down their ****hole of a ground.

I am also amazed at the clear BS rumours they are hanging their hat on about it being the lone Wolves fans kicking it all off, celebrating a goal, spitting at players wives, threatening children, eating babies** You can just hear the clutching of straws as they desperately attempt to hold on to the belief it wasn't their fans and somehow they held no responsibility

*By sort him out I mean one Saville cowardly kick him in the back and whilst 3 stands fight with the Stewards
**maybe not quite that extreme but its about as fanciful

I think they have already said no harm came to their families and if it had, it would have been by objects being thrown by Albion.

What’s happening with this. It’s all gone a bit quiet.

Yes, the whole 'had to rescue their families from the fighting' idea was such *******s. The only danger to people in that stand was the missiles coming in from the Albion fans on the pitch at the bottom. The only real fighting was in the East Stand with the police. If the Wolves fan in the Halfords threw any punches it'll be on CCTV and lots of stewards to witness it, I've not seen any evidence though, more likely like the Wolves fans in the East Stand, got over excited, got found out l, tried to just leave. I think it'll all be pretty clear when it finally gets judged, but it's really annoying that our name is being dragged through the mud in the meantime (mud that will stick too).

What can we do?

Wolves didn’t sell the tickets so it’s not their responsibility. Those tickets were purchased by Albion fans and either knowingly given to Wolves fans or sold on for a profit. The only people who broke a rule the club can act on are those who purchased the tickets in the first place.

I don't what happened with those tickets but if I had to put money on it I'd say there's more chance of it being a complementary ticket given by a player or an official of wolves especially in that area of the ground .


**** me, this bloke takes desperation to a whole new level!

So they want blame on the player or staff hahahaha

That person would already have been identified, sacked and named in the media….. so it isn’t that

Hahaha

That is a great theory by the tesco bag…… hahaha

I was out with two neutrals the other night and found it incredibly frustrating to have them both siding against me on this and stating that the trouble was 50/50 (but our fault it started) and that both teams should be punished equally. Me suggesting that a single Wolves fan sold a ticket in the home end is not actually comparable to hundreds of their thugs fighting with police, rampaging across the pitch and chucking missiles at players and fans was because of my gold tinted glasses apparently?

 

[rincewind]

Having your illusions shattered isn't easy. Not only have they found out how are ahead we are as a football team but now the narrative they've nursed for so long, that all the hooligans and idiots support us and they're the good guys, are gone.
And if the stories of £40million in debt and losing maybe £30million + this season are true, they desperately need this takeover. But now is Lai stalling? If they fluke promotion his holding is worth maybe 3x what it is now.

Not good times at the Hawthorns, overperforming team or not.

 

[QB Wolf]

That’s the one.

It talks about 1 fan being suspended, there were dozens crossing the pitch and scuffling with the police in the corner, and attacking white stone island guy, I thought the thread would be full of people having their tickets suspended?

This is probably the attitude of most neutral fans and certainly that of the non football supporting public. The idea that the football authorities will carefully consider details of who did what and why and who might be legally or moral responsible, is nieve. If they take action they are more likely to do so in the general interests of the game, as they see it, which could be to condem all and punish equally. I would also guess that Wolves might view it politic to go along with whatever is decided, rather than argue a partisan line on such an issue. Despite the desire amongst Wolves supporters to see justice publicly done, I would suspect the club would prefer the matter to be settled with as little fuss and publicity possible.

I watched the TV coverage and you could understand how someone could have that view. Not clear what was going on in the Halfords and no coverage of the real trouble in the East Stand at all. Commentary just talking about 'not showing ugly scenes', I don't think it's surprising neutrals have got the wrong impression.

[Thank you Sir Jack]

I should imagine that the WMP are determined to collar those who attacked their officers.
The assaulting of their own will provide sufficient motivation to pursue the offenders. Good luck to them in their endeavours.

Exactly this. The tv commentary didn't show the incidents so the vast majority of the neutral viewers would have thought there was fighting going on from both sides. When i got to work on Monday the Blues fans i work with thought the guy covered in blood was a wolves fan. Because there wasn't a nationwide tv/online/press condemnation of the Albion fans it has left way too much to the imagination.

No fine issued to Albion either, feels like they've got away very lightly.

Wow, that’s crazy. Not wanting to compare but we got fined for the Chelsea chants… apparently words are more harmful to PR than pitch invasions and violence towards fans and police?

 

[Sketchead]

Isn't that because The FA investigation hasn't concluded yet?

We're talking about Albion suspending their own fans and dishing out their own punishment here.

Find it hard to believe a hefty fine isn't coming their way from the authorities eventually. They won't just let disorder stop a game for over half an hour and nothing come of it.

 

[Dingle Chris]

I’m thinking we’ll have a statement from Wedt Mids Police stating the number of arrests and only after that will the FA act. Also I think the West Mids police report will be fairly favourable to our fans as bar a couple of idiots sitting in the wrong end nearly all others were well behaved. The police know who caused all the trouble.

I'm not excusing the guy in the Halfords or the small group in the East Stand. However as far as I can see none of them did anything illegal. I still don't know which Wolves fan in the ground was arrested, or whether the one in the pub before the game was a Wolves fan. In terms of the FA though for me it's all down to Albion, their ticketing, their stewarding. I'd like to think that's an objective view.

One of them is prepared to put money on the tickets being given by Wolves staf to the Wolves in the home end. Not thinking if that were the case the comps would be in the away end. Same poster, after slagging Wolves being in their end, openly admits to being in the Villa end at vila park! Thick as mince

On that thread, they mostly blame the Wolves fans in the home end. Because that's probably illegal and just asking for trouble. Yet a few posts later, they all start going on about being in with Villa fans at Villa park (presumably that play off semi final) and celebrating when they scored. And there was nothing wrong with that, though. Presumably, Villa fans being higher up the evolutionary scale, they didn't invade the pitch and attack stewards to get to the Albion fans celebrating in the home end.

They go on about this yet don't see the hypocrisy - and how their whole story falls apart as a pathetic apology for their own nasty loser fans. There's no reasoning with such people, who have less than zero insight into themselves. Blinded by their own partisan views.

They shouldn't have been able to get tickets in the first place. They should have been reported to stewards and escorted out once identified. The fact that they were there is however is still not an excuse for people to go on the rampage. I wouldn't attack a copper or run on the pitch if an albion fan had been sat near me at a derby at Molineux. How do people not get this? Those perpetrating the violence were entirley responsible. Having a wolves fan sat in the home end is barely a mitigation tbqh? How uncivilised are people?

You should expect nothing less from a fan base that sings "The Lord's my Shepherd" in one breath and "Slap a Dingle" in the next.

That entire section by our fans (I watched two videos from within that area) were singing "He leads me beside quiet waters" and then tried to smash those policemen as hard as they could.

They are no different to the first century Pharisees who loved to pray long prayers to the applause of men, wallowing in their own righteousness with their tassels and hats and bells.

A brood of vipers that speak out of both sides of their mouths.

Even the Wolves fans in the Albion end isn’t the fault of our club. Wolves sold their allocation fairly using points. The fans in that section behaved really well. There was no trouble before or after the game involving Wolves fans (that I know of). Not sure the Police/FA report can be anything other than positive towards Wolves.
