    How was a Birmingham fan throwing something at a Sunderland fan have anything to do with Fenerbahce FFS? Apart from someone being an eejit because some of us would prefer an atmosphere like theirs to our library like one in comparison.
    Perhaps you should go on the HDM comments section and have a word with those Rovers fans saying nothing hsppened, they didn't see anything and that the reason there is trouble now at rugby is football fans are going there because they are closely monitored at football.
    What is noticeable is the lack of police action, stern warnings about tracking people down and an increased police presence. Asvudual it will all be gorhotten about whilst the HDM prints hysterical stuff making out City fans are so bad that you are taking your life in your hands going to City games and the likes of West Ham and Leeds would be frightened to come here.

    More possession leads to more shots which should lead to more goals. Or so some think. More corners also give more opportunities. Maybe they won the xGs battle?

    Chelsea won on stats. Frank Lampard must be very satisfied with that performance.

    Did I say it didn't happen what the RL fans was supposed to have done, no. I never mentioned the other English teams either, you did. I commented on how you always bring RL onto these boards every chance you can get and churn out the same comments time and again. It gets boring FFS.

    Did I say you said it didn’t happen? No. I said have a word with those claiming it hadn’t and others trying to make out it was football fans. I responded to someone mentioning what happened at a Sunderland v Birmingham game and bringing Fenerbahce into it. I wasn’t the one who first mentioned them.Maybe you don’t mind the local media and police sweeping things that happen at rugby under the carpet whilst sensationalising and exaggerating every incident at City games which results in City having more stewards and segregation than Chelsea v Leeds, Liverpool.v Everton and other more high profile games than ours but I do.

    Good for them but calling it a 'mammoth' challenge is stretching it a bit.

    I disagree!

    To actually get an extinct proboscidean on a bike is a ****ing huge achievement...

    He's just missing the atmosphere in the Swedish league, Potter ;)

    I do find it interesting how different it is in different countries, football culture wise.
    Quality may be quite **** here, but even the smallest teams in the top league (probably 5-6k capacity stadiums) do a good job with the atmosphere.
    The league started about two weeks ago

    If anyone is interested, summary of all teams first tifo

    We don’t want that here. All that noise, people inconveniencing people with large banners not to mention all the people hospitalised and traumatised by that smoke. Better if everyone sits down, rising only to briefly applaud a goal before swiftly sitting down again.

    I watch IFK around once a season and have done for 15 years now and the atmosphere is better than ever, and up there with the best that I have personally experienced for club games. Quality isn't great though ;...
