Trouble at Bristol C

[weston]

It said on that forum that the swing bridge (Over the Avon, next to City's ground) was letting boats through stopping the road traffic including a couple of Millwall coaches, One of these was set upon and set on fire by City fans,

The Millwall version of events actually has someone bothering to call the club to see what in the hell went on.
Apparently no Millwall fan has been reported dead or seriously injured to the club.
Thank God.
Let's just hope troublemakers just grow the **** up and realise that it's a damned game.

This is really sad if true, let's hope it's not.

bristol city fans normally decent

What planet do you live on?.

According to MISA no Millwall fans were hurt.One person was injured but he was not Millwall.

Yet again more online ******.

BCFC fans are convinced a Wall fan is dead FFS!.

Good News.. Looks as though no-one has died..


A Millwall football fan has been taken to hospital with serious injuries following an incident shortly after a game at Bristol City

A Great Western Ambulance Service spokesman has confirmed that paramedics treated three people at the scene one of whom was rushed to hospital.

The spokesman said:’ We attended an incident at 18.07pm tonight on Plimsoll Bridge, Bedminster, Bristol.

‘We treated two fans with minor injuries and one badly injured fan was taken to the Bristol Royal Infirmary.’

Avon and Somerset police spokesman Claire Stanley confirmed the incident but denied internet rumours that a Millwall fan had died.

She said:’Police were in attendance prior to, during and after the Bristol City v Millwall game at Aston gate.

Following the game a number of incidents of disorder were reported to the police and a coach carrying Millwall fans was attacked and had a window smashed.’

Six people were arrested over the course of the day but none in relation to the man who was taken to hospital.http://swns.com/millwall-fan-in-hosp...te-072201.html
