The more I see of the incident at WBA yesterday 07:51 - Jan 29 with 1951 views | Cheltenham_Blue | The more it starts to look like, the 'trouble' was being caused by about 50 WBA fans who spilled out of the Birmingham Road end and walked across the pitch, with no attempted intervention from stewards, to confront 1 or 2 Wolves fans who had managed to get themselves into the family enclosure. Think it'll be WBA that come off worst in any FA sanctions. |  |

Football fights and disturbances seem to form good click bait and bragging rights on social media apps. With some feeds playing a bit of a 'isn't this terrible' stance, whilst reeling in the large click volumes. For some its becoming attractive to start or be involved in incidents, so they can record and distribute. Also at away games such as Huddersfield or one some of the viral videos, the age of the protagonists is very young. Again egged by what they see on-line. You'll have what look like 12-13 year olds calling you out people in the away end for a fight! nuts. |  |

Still, as Bloots said yesterday, takes some attention away from us which is a good thing this weekend. |  |
