I sat in the north stand, but had etihad tickets. No problem with that few fans I thought.

etihad (east) stand was reserved, north stand was unreserved think it was the fans who were a little bit drunk that caused alot of the problems. thought i was at a latics game at one point in the north stand when our fans started fighting with each other, to much beer!! im all in favour of having a drink but we dont need that!

Fighting? I didn't see that - I was in the north stand and it seemed more like a party atmosphere where I was. I good day out I thought.

It was a great day out pal, really was, but it did turn in the north stand the stewards came up and then it got sorted. some lads were throwing there plastic glasses with beer still in them and some lads didnt find it funny.

I presume with the long journey some had too much to drink and that is not the best recipe for orderly behaviour.

rugby + beer = 99% fun ang laughter, 1% trouble

football + beer = 1% fun and laughter, 99% trouble

I saw the fighting, was between a few chaps who obviously had a disagreement and the beer proberbly contributed also, i diddnt let it ruin my day but other fans were commenting on how it was a disgrace to see grown men having a punch up with family and kids about.

IMO the away support from us matched the home support if not a few extra of us, pretty bad when there are same/more amount of way supporters than there are home

i was quite worried that the north stand was going to collapse when the bouncy was in full flow.
