As an old NSL supporter, this thread makes me laugh. What a fuss about nothing.
Just be thankful that it's not like the bad old days where fans chased each other around the pitch with corner posts, knifes were pulled on pregnant women, goalkeepers punched and kicked fans (a la Cantona), missiles were thrown, and away supporters bus windows were smashed and pelted with rocks\bricks.
That's not condoning the idiots that are currently making fools of themselves and putting the Club at risk of a fine. These idiots are NOT football fans concerned about the sport. Just drunken immature louts.
The positive out of all of this was that it had no affect on the next match attendance!
Personally I was more distraught and disgusted about our defensive effort on the park than any minor 'argy bargy' in the stands.
But a bit of perspective is needed. Just don't expect local paper to have any.
It's already been said, but football matches in Oz are also sooo tame these days when compared to other codes. Don't let a biased media fool you into thinking otherwise.
We done to those who assisted on the night, and Eggy, stay just as you are, mate - shirtless, harmeless(to others) and unprofessional!
