Difficult to see from where we were stood on the platform but there were no more than 15 County idiots in various states of involvement and hanging around the edge of the group - they were instigating, most of the Coventry fans were just trying to go home. Couldn't really see how many Cov fans were behind police line as we were more interested in not being near it, though it didn't seem like that many from the big group of fans were responding.

Went on for a bit, we were at the top of the away end so took a while to get out and walk around to the station - it had already started by then and there was "something" going on for 10 mins after that, people chucking things over (and at) the police and various bits of "fight dancing" and posturing with very sporadic actual violence once the first couple of minutes were over as the police were right there.

From what I saw whilst sat on the supporters coach, it was the Coventry fans instigating it.

Some heavy showers yesterday. Persistent rain forecast throughout the day from approx 11:00. There was a postponement some weeks back due to continued rain but there had been a frost overnight possibly hampering the drainage.
