Don't be daft, not a chance of it ever returning. People get slapped with bans for throwing f***ing bog roll, I doubt the police will all of a sudden just let things 'return' to how they were football violence was like an iceberg in that most of what made the headlines was inside the grounds but that was only a tiny fraction of what actually went on outside the grounds. Inside the ground was probably the safest place to be. Getting to and from was a different matter...

What was the punishment the last time this kind of shit happened? Think they should pay dearly if this affects your WC bid. Fuck all. The FA are always loathe to punish the clubs involved in any bother with fans. They argue, rightly in my opinion, that the individuals involved should be rooted out and punished rather than the entire club. Unfortunately for West Ham and Millwall, they've both got a load of mongs who have attached themselves to the clubs who are determined to cause bother wherever the clubs play. When 2 clubs like these meet in a cup competition there's usually a load of hassle but tonight was significantly worse than usual. Maybe fines, perhaps closed grounds but nothing more will happen imo.

Nicosian Mafia OUT!!!

Should have dressed the gormless wanker in a Chelsea shirt and hoyed him in the middle of it tbh.

Violence at football was here long before VHS... For some reason the sport seems to attract angry blokes who enjoy a bit of bother and use football as an excuse to behave like cocks. It has done for quite some time too.

They should have given them more, they gave them about 1000 odd which meant a hell of a lot travelled across without tickets and just caused trouble. If they'd given them more and just increased police prescence in the stadium they could have kept them apart better in and outside and they could have held the Milwall lot back for as long as it took to clear the walk to the tube station. Possibly? All I know is that if you're expecting a large number of arseholes to arrive at a certain football ground at a certain time then there's going to be bother. Not sure either of our ideas would have prevented the pricks from attending and kicking off regardless tbh. Inside, outside, with tickets or without...nobheads are going to behave like nobheads.

Can't understand why Millwall were given any tickets. It was always going to kick off and I'm sure there will be hell on through the night.

I thought the away fans were in level 7. But level 7 is closed for home fans. Or something to that effect. Ah, right.

If they're closing Level 7, where are the away fans going to be? Corner of Leazes/Milburn?

Simmer.

He's just hit the jackpot tbh. Any 5 year deal @ about £80k a week has to be signed at his age. We're not in a position to offer him anywhere near that. Can't blame him for signing for County and every single one of us would have done exactly the same.

Burnley have started just like Hull did last year. Winning games they had no right to win but then hit the wall at Xmas.

Liverpool already 6 points behind Chelsea. Bit early to say it's over for them but that's a hell of a gap to make up at this stage.

I'll tell you what, the internet is fucking great.

Was he not just trying to avoid Gerrard's lunge? Please tell me that Gerrard gave a penalty away with someone else diving to win it.... Get in. Karma you whining little twat.

He could walk onto the field with and AK-47 and mow some poor fucker down and they'd say it was accidental.

I think that's probably what's happened here. Still think it's embarrassing though.

Nah man, just can't see the logic of attending a Norwich v Sunderland game wearing a Newcastle shirt. Was he on the wind-up? If so what have we got to take the piss out of them about? Just a bit embarrassing tbh. Had we drawn Huddersfield away on Wednesday, and some nimrod in the home end had a Sunderland shirt on - what would you think of him?

Can't see why anyone would do that.

What an absolute heap of shit. Fuck it.

nnnggghhh!

Most expensive full-back iirc. pretty sure it was most expensive defender. Dear me.

Promotion back up has to be the priority this season. The Cup's should be a nice little distraction and any key players we do have should be rested. Play a few of the kids and see how they cope. Hughton might just find out what they can do which will be handy when we start picking up a few injuries and suspensions and he's got to dip into the rest of the squad. Narrow 2-1 win for us. Maybe even in Extra time.
