Pathetic little children bringing shame to our club. Fighting with away supporters that may lead to Argyle being fined. I naively thought those days were long gone, clearly not.
After wigan fans invaded the pitch, let off flares and incited the home fans (from both the lyndhust and mayflower). Guess you want to gloss over that bit? Youād be the first on here bemoaning smoke bombs had it been the other way aroundPathetic little children bringing shame to our club.

So: 'Pathetic little children bringing shame to our club' is acceptable and understandable if the away supporters 'start' it?After wigan fans invaded the pitch, let off flares and incited the home fans (from both the lyndhust and mayflower).

Thereās always someone else to blame isnāt there?

Fact is if wigan fans had acted the same way as Wycombe, Crewe, Doncaster etc who didnāt celebrate a goal by invading the pitch, throwing flares and giving it the big un to the home fans there wouldnāt have been an incident. That was the trigger regardless of what did or didnāt follow.Thereās always someone else to blame isnāt there? People need to take responsibility for their own actions.
There were far more than 20 argyle fans involved. They werenāt all throwing punches or posturing at the Wigan fans but there were easily 50 if not more argyle fans that encroached beyond the segregation netting.Not sure what the stewards were doing, most were just watching. There were only about 20 Argyle fans involved, proactive stewarding would have sorted it in a couple of minutes. Very strange.
Fact is most people are quite capable of recognising that the pitch encroachment was simply over-exuberance, the smoke bomb just stupid and the āincitementā was simply what football fans always do towards the opposition, without thinking that those things somehow give them an excuse to start causing trouble.Fact is if wigan fans had acted the same way as Wycombe, Crewe, Doncaster etc who didnāt celebrate a goal by invading the pitch, throwing flares and giving it the big un to the home fans there wouldnāt have been an incident.

Thatās not entirely fair. There were quite a few stewards who put themselves in between the two groups and managed to stop things escalating.Knuckle dragging morons who the stewards did little or nothing to stop, until it was too late.
Hahaha are you for real? Wigan fans celebrated a last minute winner after a 5+ hour journey. If we were in their shoes you'd be rejoicing the scenes as "absolute limbs š¤Ŗš„".Fact is if wigan fans had acted the same way as Wycombe, Crewe, Doncaster etc who didnāt celebrate a goal by invading the pitch, throwing flares and giving it the big un to the home fans there wouldnāt have been an incident.

Can't comment on today as wasn't there but, at games at Shrewsbury, Morecambe and Accrington there was group of people in amongst Argyle fans who seemed intent on agitating home supporters. This included a couple of more "mature" guys who seemed to be encouraging younger members of the crowd to confront the home fans. Mature in terms of years not behaviour obviously. šBy the way - they certainly were not all children - some of them definitely looked old enough and big enough to be adults.
