Anyone know how many coaches the clowns bought ?

I got stuck at the Crown & Cushion for 10 minutes as the police blocked traffic at the top of Aston Lane for a while. I reckon there must have been about 20 coaches - they were escorted along the flyover towards the Bartons.

Thought that was behind the delay 👍

We gave them a cheery wave from outside The Bartons.

Agree with everyone that the Police deserve great credit, didn't see one single Bluescum anywhere from start to finish, and that includes driving past their shithole of a ground on the way home.
Sat in the DE Upper right next to the Holte and was impressed to see a huge steel fence arrangement in Witton Lane, for the unwashed to be sheparded into, very impressive.
Didn't hear a bloody peep out of them in the game either, their support really was quite embarrassing.

20 coaches all half empty. Almost like a Donald Trump rally.

Did the away toilets survive the game?

The deal is that their club pays for what they smash up, so some nice new toilets free of charge if they have.
