Neither have I Mickey but I have witnessed LOADS, esp on bigger shows where groups of fans from different cities are left to mix freely.

I go to boxing matches with my mates - I take my kids and missus to the football and other sports. I wouldn't take them to a pro boxing show.

That is a sad reflection on our sport I think.

It is. It puts me off going to shows at the MEN which is on my doorstep. It's just full of Deansgate lads who don't tuck their shirts in and can't take their ale.

Regardless what the report on here says it was going off pretty bad. The first kick off between Mancs & leeds was pretty unsavioury the secon less so but still had the plod coming in to deal with it.

Yeah all I ever did was first, want to take a dump, then, talk bollocks, then feel edgy. Can't say it made me feel like Superman. If anything, it used to keep me sober and behaved!

I saw someone hit a security guard with a crutch, daft question but was it the chap with the crutches or had someone borrowed it?
That brawl started with 2 people having a set too the first was when the Manchester fans ran at the Leeds lot.

:oo doesn't matter how predictably unoriginal the selection, that is the European Eye of the Tiger!
I'm not much of a lyricist but when I hear that bit in the song
'Oh, We're heading for Venus (Venus)
And still we stand tall'
My grey matter throws up the line 'She sucked on my penis' every single time.

Would you take the Scorpions 'Wind of Change'?

Boston's "More Than A Feeling" is soft rock in excelsis. So good that Kurt Cobain stole the guitar riff for "Smells Like Teen Spirit" from it.

Neither are as good as 'Purple Rain' I heard in a karaoke bar in Doncaster or any of the Smiths songs that also teased the air that day.
