    The reason they're provoked into storming the barriers is because week after week Arsenal announce full attendance with a half empty stadium

    So you are admitting that the Cologne fans behaviour is shambolic. Nice way to contradict your earlier comment

    Feel sorry for the Met.

    They have turned up to deal with 80000 alleged supporters
    of both sides at the Library, only to find out tis merely 20000
    Koln supporters.

    Surely they must have had some sort of plan in place when they knew 20k were travelling? <doh>

    Arsenal fans should team up with the Germans to help get Wenger out.

    I doubt Arsenal knew that 20k were travelling to London. They would have been given the usual allocation of tickets for away fans. If FC Cologne had a massive over subscription for tickets, then it's up to them to provide any extra provision for their fans. Maybe they could have screened the game in their own stadium ?

    I'm talking about the Met rather than Arsenal mate. I'd imagine many would have travelled even if they had of screened it back there.

    Ridiculous how many are in the home end though...

    Sorry mate, my bad. You would have thought FC Cologne would have communicated the info if they knew so many fans were going to travel.

    Otherwise the Met would have to take their info from Arsenal who would plan for an allocation of 3000 away fans.

    <laugh> Stop **** stirring

    Apparently the Koln fans stormed into the home fans section. That's not Arsenal's fault. The riot police and stewards are in there now and it seems to have calmed down a bit now.

    Mate, did you watch the videos? <laugh>

    There's thousands in your end behind the goal, plus the clock end, they've clearly bought tickets from home fans or direct from Arsenal.

    Storm the gates? I've been to the Emirates you can't just storm the ****ing gates, it's 2017 ffs <rofl>

    Apparently they were trying to get into the away end not out btw <ok>

    This is the concourse in the home end:
