thank you for hosting us we ahd a gret day round Brentford and at the match
but come on firstly lets nott alk lies
there were NO anti- lee rigby songs sung in the new inn
I was there with the Manchester bus all day. the bus included serious professional people and we would not have been happy with any such song
as for a few flares and bangers …that’s standard in many games so stop being holier than tho.. the few idiots who ran on the pitch during the game where wrong but the family invasion at the end was just a bit of craic and for god sake we were shaking ahnds with the stewards and coppers
so lets abse any conversation as regards this tie on the truth not lies for the internet
again thank you for hosting us

  The main problem is that if WE had done that at our HOME ground then the club and police would have been down on Bees fans like a tonne of bricks… It’s not anti Celtic… the level support was mighty impressive, its more the double standards we face ourselves.

i hope we never go back….my god we took 6500 fans down from scotland…obviously most would be having a few beers from early on…and this is the feeling generated…..you have prob never had anything like it at your ground before…amazing support, no violence…you should have embraced it…obviously a few got over excited..deal with it

  No violence?
  Facts are that the utter majority of the Celtic fans were great and the support was impressive. However, there are some Bees fans who got beat up, and a pitch invasion might be a laugh to you, but if we go to an away game in the League and we did that, we would get fined, banning orders, and so on. The pitch invasion complaints aren’t levelled at you, but at our Police and stewards who failed to deal with it.
  Regardless, I enjoyed the day other than the pitch invasion.

the bhoys from greenock had a great time, sing songs beers cant beat it the police couldnt do nothing about us, they stood and watched us drink on the street. The game was fabulous we have the best fans in the world and that proved it. Tiocfaidh ar la ,We are the Shammy ..Tam
