“Damage to the train consisted of a broken door and window and minor damage to a toilet."

How did they manage to notice the difference?

Of all the fans in the FL with no right to take the piss out of anyone the Bratturd lot take the biscuit. They seem to have an element who are surely some of the most arrogant, ignorant arseholes in the whole of football. They tasted real success briefly a few years ago, fair enough and some of them now feel they have the right to belittle any clubs and fans they perceive as inferior to themselves, (which for some of them seems to mean most of the other teams in the FL). When they beat us at VP earlier this season this board was swamped with their morons trying to take the piss, many in a nasty arrogant sort of way. Some of them cause trouble at the game, others damage trains on the way home, WHY? cos' they can't beat little old Morecambe or our equivalent. No wonder their everyones 'cup final' as quoted by one of their retards on here, it's probably because most decent clubs fans can't stand the sight of them. I hope they remain every ones cup final in Div 2 (or lower) because I find it very, very funny each and every time they get turned over by teams they consider vastly inferior to themselves. :D

I still remember when Bradford Park Avenue came out of the league and came to our place in the NPL with a Billy Big Bollocks attitude only to get severley turned over. BPA were once a bigger club than Bradford City and where are they now? Bloody no where and the sooner Bratfud City join them the better.

Rant over. Let,s hope we hear no more about them till we take all their money again next season on another fruitless trip over the Pennines. Unless we are in Div 1 of course.

This thread brought back a few memory's of my days in Scotland as a Rangers supporter, before i joined the local supporters club i used to make my own way to the games, when i was fifteen i went to my first final at hampden, we won 1-0, this was the first trophy we had won for several years so to say the Celtic support was not happy would be putting it mildly.

Anyway after the game i made the mistake of going to the wrong station, the one used by the Celtic support oops. There was just myself and a friend and hundreds of Celtic fans queuing for the train. We both had jackets on so our shirts were not visible however i also had a scarf on, i put one hand under my jacket and pulled it down as hard as i could so that it was hidden by the collar of my jacket.

When the train came we all piled on, we were squashed up against the doors with Celtic fans saying what they were going to do to the first Rangers fans they could get their hands on, i stood there for the longest five minutes of my life praying that they didn't spot my scarf.

When the train stopped at the first station we got off thankfully nobody else did, i cant tell you how relieved i was when those doors shut and the train pulled away.

When it reached the end of the platform i opened my jacket and lifted my scarf above my head, the inside of the train suddenly resembled a swarm of angry wasps, i can laugh about it now but at the time it was dammed scary.

I certainly wouldn't like to witness the acts of violence that i have seen committed in the name of football ever again. Hopefully those days are gone forever.

I also heard from a Few Friends and Locals that there was a little bit of trouble in Town of Good Friday after the Bradford City Match.There was also some Bradford City fans in our Club-Shop before the Match purchasing our Shirts for £10.And there was a section of Bradford Fans in the North Stand intoxicated and being a bit of a nuisance to other Moreambe Fans .And some got rightly ejected from the Ground from the Main stand.Surely Bradford should get a small fine for the Conduct of their Supporters.They should have got a Police escort from the Train Station to thr Ground and should have been put in there stands to avoid any confrontations.

I can't see Northern Rail being as willing to lay on an extra train next year. It's quite obvious it was alcohol fuelled.

This is why we don't have football specials anymore, its a pity for the ordinary passengers though having to put up with these idiots.

I believe it was a special, which departed Morecambe before the service train, held on the Hest Bank chord whilst the service train called at Lancaster, then followed it towards Skipton. ;)
