Trouble after the Motherwell game

[Ronald Villiers]

Anyone see any trouble in Motherwell town centre after the match?  I was stuck in traffic and saw a load of guys chasing a really young looking Jambo down the street.  I hope the guy's ok!

[Dunks]

They have previous for pursuing young lads not in a group.

[Ronald Villiers]

Aye, I think there's a bit of bad blood between our pavement dancers and theirs.  Looked like the young guy was trying to reason with them. Next thing around 40 of them appeared, teenagers and guys in their 30's/40's, and chased the lad.  Tossers.

[bigdav]

What was that all about their young team walking out after 20 mins?

[LeftBack]

Ffs i love Stendel but he needs to calm down. 

[Saint Jambo]

Motherwell is the only place I see trouble every time I go, with Motherwell neds attacking opposition fans unprovoked. Police are worse than useless.

Yeah. I remember our bus windows getting smashed after we beat them 5-0 in the Texaco cup. Happy days!

Bring back the open Eastern Scottish bus.  A trip to Airdrie was sure fire overtime for an auto glazier.

[Kiwidoug]

There was trouble here after the Motherwell game.  Thunder and lightening like I've never experienced.

 

It was like God was saying, "c'mon Ann.  Get Stendel in.  I can't take much more of this".

 

As most of you know, God is a Jambo.  He gave us Hibs.  He even let's them win now and again to keep us on our toes.

You'd think the police would have been on alert after the young Hearts fan ending up in hospital last time.

 

😡

[Matthew Le Tissier]

I spend a lot of time through that area and they have a real chip on their shoulders about us. 

[bigsuperslim1874]

Back in my teens on a trip to Motherwell I started getting picked on by a group of Well fans whilst on way back to the car. They opened the car door and one of the plebs punched me right in the coupon. These were guys in there 30’s/40’s as well. 🙄

[jbee647]

I remember darts being thrown at us by Motherwell fans circa 1979..

we had just been dropped off a supporters bus, and saw these objects flying through the air..

[Debut 4]

Remember a story I got told from older JTs about the infamous 70s days when a notorious Hearts bus used to do fan-nappings. 

 

It was specifically about a trip to Motherwell. After a scrap they ‘acquired’ a Motherwell lout and brought him back to Edinburgh. 😂

Shite town, shite football team. They are probably just mad about life in general.

I remember one of my first games at tynecastle. Someone walked in front of the stand with a dart stuck in his head.

 

Thought it slightly funny at the timebut I was only 6 or 7.

That was The Airdieonians I think.

New club like Sevco I believe.

[pablo]

Hope the young Hearts fan got away safely and the Motherwell gang didn't take any liberties.........But is an individual being chased what passes off as football violence/trouble at the match these days?

I'm 64 now but I'd still like to catch up with these ##### from the Texaco Cup game. They're probably still wearing the same Skinners and the Jaytex shirts.

Hi mate.

I was there that night. 5 nil to the JT'S.

Every window on our bus was smashed and they attacked us as we tried to get off it.

That was pretty common. Some were let off in the middle of nowhere, like Harthill.

Penicuik bus was too that night. The only window left was the windscreen and they'd had a go a that too.

There was a few fists flying at the corner where both supports meet, Hearts lads started singing as Motherwell came along, a Hearts laddie threw a fire cracker into Motherwell, police dived in and had batons out,  I saw a police officer kick and baton someone but no idea whose side they were on, along at the fire station Motherwell were hanging around, again a few punches were thrown, down by the supporters buses there was another confrontation, Motherwell were also trying to have a go at ordinary older Hearts fans, no police anywhere between the corner and supporters buses, my daughter who is nearly 19 and been going with me to matches home and away for years was a bit scared  as it's the first time she has seen it actually kick off.

That would be like getting let off at a five star hotel for those maggots.

How do you know the young Hearts lad was trying to reason with them?

Did you try to help him?

Am so sorry for my post on here on this subject 

[Janbo1874]

Never forgave us for signing Willie Pettigrew.

Carry it on their shoulder like Ravenscraig shutting down and that Tam Cowan is almost as funny as Billy Connolly or even Hector Nicol.😂

A shit hole that no decent person should have to visit twice in a lifetime never mind twice a season.

His two goals for us in the, I think, first visit back to Fir Park maybe had a part to play in the shenanigans after that game.

They didn’t play nice !

[Jambo-Fox]

At Motherwell Texaco cup - it was a Lancashire ambush in the dark well away from the ground, might have been going through Carfin at a roundabout but I’m not sure.

 

And Airdrie similar but in Plains
 

Those were the days ... it was a Jungle out there!!

Carfin and Plains are Celtic/IRA strongholds

Hope the young lad who was chased managed to get away from these thugs 

[CloustonHMFC]

I went to Hamilton away last season and got the train via Motherwell. 5 or 6 guys, probably late teens or early twenties, were having a go at me and my girlfriends brother (he was visiting from Europe) until the cops came round the corner and they quickly disappeared, I have no doubt it would have escalated if they didn’t appear.

Leave Tam out of this.  Tam’s a good man who regularly fought our cause, led fundraising and speaks highly of the club.
