Re: Match Thread v Cheltenham

just spoke to Squaddie and asked what the trouble was that deserved 'dozens of police officers' you'll wet yourselves laughing but Cheltenham got out a teeny weeny Chelt flag to wave at the Ultras - who promptly got out the big surfer. Cue a tug of war between the stewards and the ultras with the flag as rope!!!! Unfortunatley though an older gentleman was in the middle of this and was hurt by the actions of the stewards. That's when the trouble started.

Apparently Jase (Willie Miller) was arrested during the planned marhc from the pub as well. The fans were told to march on the pavements rather than the road and duly did so. At some point Jase left the pavement and was nicked without any warning or provocation.

Grimps was hurt by the stewards as well and spent the game in a wheelchair.

Not sure about others but Squaddie assures me that everything that happened was under a zero tolerance approach from stewards and police. Bloody ridiculous and I hope that as many people as witnessed any of this can forward a letter or email to the club for them to hopefully act upon.
