More pathetic that a few morons can't have a few beers before a match without causing bother and ruining it for the rest of us. That's a shame. I know things used to get a bit violent years ago. Didn't realise it was still a serious issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is pointless though. 3pm kick off pubs open at 11am, 12.30 kick off they'll open at 8.30am. Where's the gain? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where's the gain? You are right, if the morons who want a bust up want a drink they will start whenever. Tough one for the police, damned if you do and all that.

Guess its the minority but the minority can be pretty scary. Only last season we had some pissed up young lads from leeds trying to get in mine and my dads faces and try and get a reaction out of us...i mean me knocking on 50 and my 80 yo dad....we just ignored them which i think wound them up even more but when it was clear we werent going to retaliate they moved on. Its sad people (some) cant just have a few beers and enjoy without turning into morons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The worst place I've seen is if you turn left out of the away end at Elland Road and walk up towards the Billy Bremner statue. Always trouble, especially when Derby have won and the small groups of our fans that walk that way are singing and goading. When I walk that way to meet my Leeds-supporting uncle, I join in with the singing because I'm proud of my team, but I don't bother winding the Leeds fans up, and I'm always ready to make a swift exit if there's real trouble.

Wazztie16 Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 I've been to 1 Derby Forest match in my life, it was recently, and it finished 0-0, at Pride Park. I couldn't believe it. And £40 i think each for the privilege.. Took the ex who's not a big football fan, told her how good it would be. We're not together anymore... Not because of the match, mind. Never going again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
