You are correct, I've been watching The County for 55 years and I don't have a ticket for the Utd match. The potential for trouble with away shirts in with the home fans is pretty high !! Not the smartest move from our ticket office.

Plenty of Leeds fans in the Hazel when we played them and no trouble

Exactly amazing how down on fellow fans other football fans are - yes some people get over excited and there are a few 'Schooligans' around but I just can't see any real bother v Man Utd now v Swindon a different matter!

We were stood by a group of 6 of them and had a good chat with them. Good bunch of lads who were impressed with the way we played and wished us well.

72 Fingers.......More than a box of Cadbury Fingers

I had 3 Leeds fans sat next to me. One was originally from Magor and his Dad had queued for the tickets. He'd lived in Leeds for over 20 years and always came to support the County when he was visiting his parents over the Christmas period.

Anyway, they went for a cup of tea under the Hazell at half time. Came back and said to me, 'We've had a chat and there's only one team winning this, and it ain't us'.
The stood and applauded when Shaun got the winner.

Let's get some perspective. I have often been in the 'away end' at games. Morons looking for trouble will usually find it, the overwhelming majority of us who just want to see a game of football do so without rancour.

For football fans we all know the difference between banter and abuse. As in we don't hate opposition fans.
