true wouldnt want it, but sure as hell would put up with if had too, i was brought up getting soaked on coppice end up peel park.

At least, with no one within 2 metres on the Coppice End, you could always use that high-tech solution to counteract getting soaked in the rain - an umbrella!

No wonder they won't trail crowds at football Leeds fans "celebrations" lead to police officers being injured one seriously pillocks every one of them that turned up in this current climate why not celebrate at home words fail me.

I was with you all the way, AndyD, until those last three words. After the last four months, I just can’t agree with that bit! ..

could understand celebrations going a bit OTT if they had gained promotion at the end of a game they went too. just cannot see the point of them or liverpool fans coming miles to the ground just to celebrate something without players and management about.

Well me and you both possess what is called common sense sadly lacking in great parts of society.

Well the idiots were out at both Leeds and Liverpool again so called celebrations with drugs, alcohol and abusive behaviour among what some were arrested for, I,d like to believe genuine fans celebrated at home while these idiots use any excuse for anti social behaviour.

if you believe that then you will believe all the experts around nowadays. unless leeds have their own open top bus they,d have to hire one from a few local companies who own them. you,d need at least a days notice to hire one.

Wigan's preferred bidder pulled out at the last minute according to the administrators, moving on to next options.
