West Brom v Wolves (FAC4) comms thread.

[BlahBlah]

Exactly, could have just been a massive flare up with the police and it escalated. Apparently something was chucked at Doc and hit a kid instead.

BBC saying that's where the home players families are sitting, which is why they ran over there smartish.

 

[old wittonian]

If abandoned will there be replay

If so I doubt they'll announce it today. Would cause more aggro.

 

[Skrilla]

That feeling of relief and ecstacy is absolutely wonderful you know. Eleven years of hurt after that 5-1 capitulation, I joined this forum five days after that game. I don't care what league they're in. ****ing get in.

Now they can have a taste of their own medicine for the next ten years while they rot in the Championship.

 

[GoldenHorseshoe]

Bull****.

I grew up going to games against Albion home and away.

Very little if any trouble. People worked together, went to school together and were often in the same extended families. Your football club was a matter of banter, not violence.

It's an invention of the 70s that has metastasised.

Let's not further the myth.

That's my recollection from my match going days 40 odd years ago.

 

[Mile End Wanderer]

Wins a win hopefully they abandon the game and we win 0-2

Sore losers, can’t accept we will win there.

Small time club and thugs. Sparrow head Morons

 

[Ned]

Sadly, if you believe what some folk on here posted, definitely not so. Absolutely the last place l'd go in the home end.

It’s idiotic. Absolutely crazy. But surely they’d have been discovered by 80th minute?

 

[WickedWolfie]

Sore losers, all the tines they have won this fixture and this is how they behave, Absolute *****

They know that their pathetic club is on a path to nowhere. Their historic record against us is all that they have to cling to...... Losing that means that they have nothing.

 

[SingleMalt]

I hate this fixture

I hate going to this fixture. I’m enjoying watching us beat the **** at their place on the telly though.

 

[wolfslair]

Back to cunha…..

How great is it a guy who has played Madrid derbies, Brazil v Argentina gets just how
Big this game is and is bought into our club, history and rivals

 

[Stratman Wolves]

They are a sad fanbase! Can't handle it! All they had on us was their long streak of beating us at the poorthorns and they dont even have that now, sad!

 

[Immigration wolf]

West Brom problem then.

I’m here, in the rainbow, the trouble started as soon as Cunha scored, a few bottles were thrown and then about 20 Wolves fans stood up and started jumping about, then pandemonium as the stand erupted, and the Brummie road came over past the absolutely useless stewards, no fighting now, just clearing the pitch. Loads of Wolves dotted about in here too

 

[Black Country Wanderer]

I wonder how minutes will be added on if they restart

 

[Dorbelflunk]

The joy has pretty much evaporated now.

If we ever play them again it'll be behind closed doors.

Heavy sanctions incoming.

 

[the 15th Wanderer]

Not how I remember the late 70s early 80s. Not defending it but definitely happened.

 

[mcwolf]

In this day and age surely cameras should be pointed out the fans so the police and clubs can highlight the troublemakers and charge and ban them

the Albion cameras will have to be sent to boots the chemist to have pictures developed

 

[Southdownswolf]

Looking at pictures, it's **** fans being stretched away bleeding. It's either **** on ****, or the Wolves fans are giving more than they get

 

[Black Country Wanderer]

Saying it could be replayed now,if that happens it will set a huge precedent and not a good one

 

[Wonder Boyo]

Jesus, all the vibes are that this wil be abandoned and it will be a while before they come to a decision about the result.

 

[Streathamwolf]

Are you telling me ITV don't know what they are on about???!

They do - and they said it is up to the FA

 

[GuzzWolf]

Will this get abandoned the replayed behind closed doors

Replay at Mol if that was the case...No away fans

 

[Incognito]

There's always been aggro at the BCD. It's always been ferocious. But never remember a match being stopped. However, if you remember scenarios like 2007, then you know it's a tinderbox this match.

 

[oldgoldheart]

They won’t replay the game for the sake of 8 minutes. **** me.

They might according to itv.

 

[Aimless Balls]

Was calling it off a bit extreme?

 

[Ned]

Back to cunha…..

I absolutely love the bloke.

 

[WV10Wolf]

lol…so under no circumstances you could envisage Wolves fans in an away end?

That’s made me smile. Thanks

You’re welcome. I think it’s odd that it didn’t kick off after the first goal of its wolves fans in the home end.

 

[BlahBlah]

But it’s a Albion problem. They control the tickets. The problem is in their end.

They do, but when they're in fans hands anything can happen. Plus we all know about comps, sponsors, wives and girlfriends, workmates and under the counter tickets.

I got offered 2 East Stand tickets this week....would have been great if i wasn't in Australia

 

[Mile End Wanderer]

The joy has pretty much evaporated now.

If we ever play them again it'll be behind closed doors.

Heavy sanctions incoming.

Sanctions for them not us we ay done anything wrung. Those selling tickets to Wolves fans maybe face jail time for provoking disorder

Not our best performance but into the next round we go

 

[tiggerkev]

Of course it is. You could see a few lads getting a kicking.

Unfortunately it did appear some fans were being chased out of the home end.

 

[Contrarian]

Scumbags, not content with chucking bottles moved it up a level..

Beaten on the pitch and humiliated by their fans off it.

 

[ombyman]

Imagine what it's going to be like outside....be careful if you are there

 

[Sussex Wolf]

Bull****.

I’ve been in the old South Bank as a kid with my parents in the early 70’s and we had to get escorted out because it wasn’t safe to remain with all the missiles flying. This game has proper hatred unfortunately.

 

[Willywolf]

Of course it is. You could see a few lads getting a kicking.

I’m unsure though tbh. We’re only hearing the narrative from the comms team. Could be several lads are tanked, spewing bile and being offensive, someone spoken up to tell them to pipe down as there are kids around and they kicked off. All guesswork really, but I am not sure how wolves fans could get into the home end - all ticket sales surely scrutinised much more closely. I dunno though. Could be anything kicking off - the fact there are still issues suggests it’s their own Nesbit ******s fighting amongst themselves.

 

[WV10Wolf]

Apparently it started when a benny threw something at Dawson and it hit a ball boy.

 

[jrpb-3]

Options seem to be
current score stands
Complete the final 8 minutes
Replay the whole match

Surely has to be one of the first two

 

[North West Wanderer]

They do - and they said it is up to the FA

They also said we would go through, hence me sharing it on here.
More importantly, hope all are safe.

 

[Autistic Kangaroo]

Albion fans just don’t want to lose the game.

Not fair on us - we’ve suffered enough in this fixture but not pulled behaviour out like this

 

[Timberwolf]

Were they in wolves tops?

Apparently so…

Sorry to say I'm in the Birmingham road end on my own and I'm ecstatic were winning but uve got to be sensible and after cunha scored some wolves fans also in here celebrated.one even took his coat off to reveal his wolves shirt.no need and a bit of an idiot but there's no excuse for the violence

 

[Streathamwolf]

With one team, two nil up and the home teams fans are causing trouble then surely an abandonment can’t lead to a replay. Otherwise it sets a massive precedent. Lose kickoff, replay.

Agreed

 

[Incognito]

Just hope it doesn’t really kick off at full time, outside ground

From experience of many matches there, even when we lose, it's tasty outside. After a win, it'll be even tastier!

 

[Ned]

Obviously this doesn’t condone behaviour but starting a game at 11:45am doesn’t stop people drinking or make them behave better. It means people are up earlier, less sleep, less food, same amount of boozing/sniffing.
