Title: what the Gillingham paper says... Post by: Leggett on Monday, January 16, 2006, 18:14:01 Quote Soccer fans clash after Gills match by Chris Bell FOOTBALL thugs brawled in Gillingham as hooliganism reared its ugly head at the weekend. Rival fans fought in the streets near the Priestfield stadium before and after the Gills’ victory over Swindon Town on Saturday. Police said afterwards that they brought in back-up units as the trouble escalated. Seven people were arrested. Football websites were carrying messages about the fighting after the game. One Swindon fan said: "We ran your lads everywhere. There wasn’t a good firm from the Gills in sight. Gillingham has a Mickey Mouse firm." A Gillingham fan posted his thoughts, saying: "A bunch of yobs masquerading as Swindon fans set upon the exits from the Gills’ family enclosure, attacking anything that came their way. It’s the first time I’ve seen anything like that for years." Before the game the Livingstone Arms pub in Gillingham Road was adopted by the travelling support. An eye-witness at the pub, who asked not to be named, said: "The fans were very loud but they all seemed well-behaved. Gills’ fans were outside taunting them but the police seemed to have it all under control." David Garth, 52, a season ticket holder at Priestfield, said inside the ground: "The Swindon fans seemed to be trying to get in among the Gills fans but there were quite a few stewards and then more police arrived to push them back." Season ticket holder Jason Colman, 18, said he noticed before the game something wasn’t right. "I could tell as we walked past the Livingstone Arms pub it wasn’t going to be a normal fixture," he said. "During the game their fans constantly tried to reach the Gills fans but were pushed back." A police spokesman said: "Police made seven arrests for public order offences and minor assaults. No police staff were injured and back-up units were requested as the trouble escalated and we dealt with the issues at hand." :roll: i love it, it bases its 'truth' on posts on a forum. thats good journalism that is...

What a great piece of investigative journalism. Secondly you don't need to write said before and after quoting someone. Who is this journo? Someone who tarmacs driveways by day and writes a load of bollocks for the newpaper now and again?

Post by: lumpimynci on Tuesday, January 17, 2006, 19:21:52 I know I'm basing this on my memories from years ago, when I didn't have a job and family hundreds of miles away and could actually attend games regularly but from what I remember the relationship between the two sets of fans was always:
1. Gillingham fans hated us and our club with a passion, seemingly because of a couple of decades old incidents of serious crowd violence, and not being able to cope with that play off defeat. As a result they attacked us at every opportunity. 2. Our fans thought they were a bunch of pikey twats who should really get over it. Is that still the case or have we now started to give a fuck? Title: what the Gillingham paper says... Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Tuesday, January 17, 2006, 19:26:47 i dont know i hope the former tbh. i dont give a fuck personally but i think a few of our fans are starting to get a bit pissed off with the Gills for being such bad twats this season! they piss me off too but i wouldnt say i hate them in the same way as oxford or city or reading
