Maybe now your club and genuine fans will do something about the scum that attaches itself to ATFC? It isn't as if this was an isolated incident was it? Hopefully the FA will come down on you very harshly.

After Sleaford Town and Huntingdon Town were thrown out of the competition did we get any coverage on BBC Radio 5?

Can say he prepared well all they want, 9 stewards on duty a completely inadequate segregation, very little response to the incident and no attempt to single out trouble makers or catch any culprits.

Lob em out the cup and fine them heavily.

Couple that Ste with the fact there was the potential for this to happen, anyone that can read knew this could have been a problem. Woeful preparation!

Probably something like that will happen.

Their manager saying the club is going to be dragged through the mud and they are expecting serious repercussions for them once it is determined what really happened. He has seen a small clip on a phone and can't believe what happened.

Brian Keen on now.

Finding out an 88 year old being attacked makes me sick. Hope each and every one involved are banned from all football grounds for life.

No need at all for words like that, don't bring yourself down to the same level.

Yes but I don't want to post on here in case the person themselves don't want it known or their friends/family see it and worry.
