Not serving booze though until 10am, not sure the point in that?

The League Cup match in 2003. Very much Beattie’s night. Some proper trouble before the game. Their fans disgraced themselves during the Ted Bates ‘silence’. Stupid of Lowe not to wait to the Charlton game but neanderthals will be neanderthals. It was a national talking point and brought them a lot of shame.

As I live in Botley, train home would be much more convenient, quick and direct (especially if we lose). 

But what's the score if you don't get back on the bus, guess there's fuck all they can do about that after the game?

I know it was the Carabao Cup and not the league, but it feels like the absolute twatting that we gave them in their oh so intimidating shed a few years ago often gets overlooked.

4-0. Macca had a great game, Ings ripped them to shreds, Cedric knocked one in and then Redmond delivered the KO. 

Some quality finishes that night. 

 

 

 

They say if doesn’t count as we were two divisions higher, but can’t wait to bleat about that FA cup game in 2010 with a squad of players they couldn’t afford to pay.

Not at all it was amazing and have lived off it the last years, I just got thinking about the league. Seems to be we win at home and lose away, until the last season we played them in the league in our promotion season and their relegation, and this season. Last 3 have been a draw, will something give?

I've thought a lot about this and I wonder what they'd actually do if people broke out of the 'sterile area'.

Is there actually a crime they could charge anyone with? Would they show common sense and let people out in an emergency?

It's not been an issue so far due to every game being a draw so they've not had to deal with an angry away support but surely at some point there'll be a few who try it.
