Well either way its hard to know either way but suspect a majority are just good football fans wanting to watch a game but certain clubs do have a reputation and certainly have fans looking for trouble..even more so if they are drunk or its against a local side.

Mind you its not an excuse for the West Ham fans to start fighting their own - afterall we all get told to sit down at football etc but don't kick off.

They just simply having taken to the move well (losing a few games hasn't helped) and being told what to do.

Chelsea v West Ham would have caused trouble anywhere - just its probably not been as highlighted in the past.

I'm glad someone said this because he's actually a pretty intelligent guy, and his book 'Full Time' about his career is quite insightful and far, far better than most fooballers' books. I really recommend it; it's well reviewed on Amazon:

Sandy sounding like a fully paid up member of the remoaners this marnin saying news of Nissan's plan to build two new models in Sunderland safeguarding 7,000 car jobs at the Sunderland factory and up to three times more than that in the supply chain is probably only a temporary fix to which Alan strongly disagreed arguing forcibly "Grit fer the siven thousand workers Sandy grit fer the siven thousand workers ".

I'm with Al.

Well obviously the ex-footballer who has sozzled himself with booze for forty years isthe one to side with over the financial expert.

Honestly "remoaners" let's not start that twatty twaddle in here. People are allowed to not be happy with the vote, As you are clearly delighted with it. No reason to call anyone any names, after all if i was to call Brexiters, "xenophobic morons" you probably wouldn't be happy.

"I dont want to keep going on about this west ham trouble" says Big Al a minute ago when its been the lead "troll" item on every show save H and J as its perfect lazy easy content.

Kevin Nolan, out his depth on breakfast, even now saying he would not take his kid to West Ham - lol what a drama queen

about 40 gesturing eejits on both sides, pavement dancers, saying come on come on whilst knowing fine well nothing will happen, out of 55,000 people and TS spend all day trolling the listeners saying "oooh look at this trouble, isnt it bad, what will we do, what will west ham do yada yada yada"

pathetic

You are right there. What is Talk Radio? Talksport 2 as well. How easy is it to access either?

I only dipped into the main channel once every six months or so, for some rugby and that has gone.

No mention of Rajars by Alan, Jim Whitus, etc etc must mean a down turn in audience figures for TS main channel. When figures went up there was messages from Fisher congratulating all and sundry and Alan Brazil croaking about it non stop.
Just like when the teams/managers Alan loves to bits are doing badly,, he simply ignores it and says nothing.
Kevin Nolan on today was a typical boring ex player coming out with multi cliches.It's not his fault as he is looking round for a job now that his playing days are over, it's TS fault for giving jobs to people with little or no broadcasting skills.

For people that like current affairs talkRADIO is the new commercial radio station run by the same company that own talkSPORT. [UTV of Ireland] It can only be accessed on digital radio and the internet and amongst others in the presenter line-up there's James Whale, George Galloway, Iain Lee, Julia Hartley-Brewer, Paul Ross, Jon Holmes and the 2 Mikes.
Since its launch it's had no outside advertising whatsoever which is really poor because if more people knew about it I am sure it would soon have many more listeners.

The station really is a big pile of stinking $h_t I honestly don't understand why people listen to it, in my weaker moments when I tune in very briefly I only do it to catch something they've done badly [which is daily] and ridicule it.

If I win a double double Euro lottery I publicly promise to buy out this cowboy outfit of a station, summarily fire everyone there [INCLUDING THE STUDIO CAT] and set on a full schedule of intelligent presenters discussing round-the-clock the 72 Football League clubs and Scottish teams and allocate a single one hour slot on Saturday morning's at 5.00am to the Premier League.

If it don't make money we'll all go down together but listening to some quality and interesting topics and who cares anyway I'm a ####ing millionaire.

Yes of course I did know that I momentarily had a brain freeze Radio Tuner is the buy-out completed yet?, I hope they make wholesale changes at TS it's well overdue in my view.

I only listen to the two Mike's when they are on overnight now. I've stopped listenig to pretty much the rest of the station.

If I flick to the station in my car randomly most of the time you get an annoying advert and even when you get a presenter it's crap.

And that should be the talking point. About why people feel the need to kick off and not blaming authorities, clubs and organisations.

I've supported Forest since the 70's and never once felt the need to have a fight over it, not even with Derby fans. Our saying that 99.9% of fans are ok plus media such as TalkSport focussing on what clubs should do better in a way just gives acceptance to the trouble makers.

It really astounds me why people feel the need to fight over sport but doesn't astound me as much as society's acceptance of it by blaming bad stewarding/policing/club chairmen. The media sadly just appear to skirt around the issue.

Was that really all it was? Just 40 people gesturing? No actual violence? Were the reports of ripping up seats lies? Did no one actually throw anything at all?

Well, after several months of the media, the BBC in particular, and tens of thousands if not millions of commenters online (see any Guardian article about anything) doing precisely this on a daily basis, you get used to it after a while.

Well, as I say, name-calling on both sides doesn't help. BBC saying this when? Examples of them saying that or is it more tiresome Beeb bashing.

I do know "remoaner" is regularly on the front of the Mail, Sun, Express, Star and on here. it's not helpful.

On this subject, our government has giving plenty of assurances to a foreign company, which they will not disclose to us, in order for them to stay. It's good that they are staying, put putting it forward as a great victory for Brexit, when it's clearly costing us, would seem a tad disingenuous, and it's how it's being reported in all those publications.

Thank you Talksport for not sending Graham "The Jinx" Courtney to The Riverside today. It happens too much for it to be a coincidence. Feel free to keep him at The Stadium of Light for the season.

talkSPORT OVERNIGHT repeats AGAIN! My sporting life is constantly on weekdays/ends overnights, it's dull and boring with the night time schedule. talkSPORT either get a new presenter overnights or just simultaneously broadcast with virgin radio, get your acs together talkSPORT. Oh another thing quit with the adverts every 10 mins it's the same boring adverts.

Anxious times for Alan his beloved Wee Jose fails to beat Burnley on home soil and Mourinho sent to the stands like a naughty schoolboy. Arsene Wenger's excellent side win again going joint top of the table by thrashing his other hero Wee Davieee's struggling team who are now adrift at the bottom of the table and looking in certain relegation trouble.

Little doubt BigAl will instead concentrate more on Celtic winning at Aberdeen tomorrow on the earth's biggest breakfast show.
