Yes and with all that blood on the floor it looks like one of Tracy Emins masterpieces!

The people standing in the Isle in block 17 were at the top about 20 or 30 of them stewards did try to move them but they were having none of it.
The fighting was down the front in the second half.
As for the incident I was in the smoking area (although I dont smoke anymore) and saw nothing unless it was another smoking area on the other side of the ground.

there's been about 3 incidents in that same spot down the front this season. Not sure what the issue is down there.

Don't understand why people don't move if they don't get on.
Then again they maybe friends who just keep disagreeing on things?

Is this kids or ‘grown-ups’? I can honestly say I’ve never really seen any bother amongst our own fans in all the years I’ve been going up.
Tbh I’ve not seen much between cov and other fans either.

grown men from what I've seen. Certainly old enough to know better.

Strange. Despite never really seeing any trouble I sense from opinion on here things are starting to get worse on that front.
I’ve always felt that cov residents, are quite, how do I word this, ‘robust’. And that this has never really been replicated at games. Unlike the city itself (I gather from speaking to non coventrians), city fans don’t appear to have any sort of reputation like millwall, Pompey et al.
The ones I’ve noticed making all the noise appear to be teenagers as opposed to some sort of serious ‘firm’. Is this changing do we think?

Grown men, at least half a dozen times this season fighting amongst themselves and also with those around them, if its not a fight they are having an argument with someone.

A mixture but surprisingly they tend to be older, fifties, sixties in some cases. I've not really seen any problems until this season.
I remember “muddy” waters was our copper few years ago. He chased a Leicester scum bag across thf pitch at high field Rd, he jumped into the west end, copper followed hit wall and fell. Everyone cheered, he got up run off. Few years later I met him, he said he hit the wall but couldn’t face the abuse so got up ran aroundback of the stand. And collapsed in pain. Game was 0/0...most exciting thing!!

Coventry has always been a tough City to be fair and the hooligan element is always there, although with most of these cases I don’t think we are talking about so called ‘firm’ etc. Anybody that follows the various Away day pages etc will see pictures of the Legion get together etc a few times a season.

I was referring to the semi specifics of grown up city fans fighting amongst themselves......
I wasnt discussing organised football violence ...although if a bunch of lads wanna wear matching knitwear and get all shouty while skipping down the street like an albertross attempting takeoff...... social media is probably a best place to do it.

Somebody who sits down there told me it's brothers fighting eachother, if so unbelievable. As for the lads in the aisle between 16 and 17 they sent a lady steward up there who could hardly make it up the stairs bless her. She came back down in that one step at a time way while holding onto the back of people's seats as she went. What did anyone expect her to achieve apart from maybe collapsing in a heap.

The only trouble I’ve experienced this season was Notts County away at one of the riverside bars; it all kicked off between the police and some lads who couldn’t handle their drink. Glasses thrown as well as punches. The only other one that I can remember apart from that was the Stoke game where the police escorted their yobs to ours and walked back to their vans whilst it all kicked off:facepalm:

Same area as me by the sounds of it. I'd say they're old enough to know better, but that should really apply to anyone over the age of 15.

There was even handbags at Exeter away. Just gos to show don't have to thousands there. There's mindless idiots everywhere.
If your looking for trouble. Trouble will find you! simples.

The guy next to me at Exeter fell asleep about 5 minutes in and woke up on the final whistle. Lucky bastard.

The frontal cortex doesn't fully develop until 25 so you have to make some allowances. You're at the mercy of your amygdala.
They are usually old pics. Not been a big Legion meet up since QPR away in 2011
