Trouble in the crowd - Stoke (A) 29th Dec 2025

[Silkblade]

Went to the game last night, I noticed some trouble in the crowd in our away end and 2 lads ending up getting escorted out by 4 police officers.

What happened? It’s not like us to cause trouble and whatever those 2 lads did I am glad that they were removed as we aren’t like that.

Though the atmosphere was really good and away end was packed which is really impressive given Christmas has just been so everyone’s skint and New Year is in a few days. Fair play Blades good 3 points and onto Leicester on Thursday.

Were the police wearing “Wilder In” armbands?

Was it in the first half and right at the back? Two able-bodied lads in the ambulant area looked to be kicking off with someone in front of them in the back row. It took everything I've got not to shout "TIMMMEEEEHHHH"

Maybe a bit too much Christmas on the way to the match!!

Even if they did...... nothing?

Maybe Charles was involved too

It was two sailors kicking off. Apparently, ordinary seaman John Blake claimed that all apples have pips, whereas his colleague, able seaman Richard Cartwright, was adamant that no apple is pipped. Tragic really that such a thing should come to blows between chums.

I’ve definitely seen apples with pips, but I’ve definitely seen them without pips. So there’s your answer. Some do, some don’t, but, you know, don’t be afraid to ask!

It was the same area the smoke bomb went off after the 2nd goal. They could have reviewed the CCTV and gone and got them.

There was no trouble that I saw and I am putting 2 and 2 together so could be wrong.

 

[Blackheath Blade]

Come on then, own up. Who was causing trouble from this lot?

Yeah, looked like a father and son and was definitely for the smoke bomb. Was quite amusing to see the stewards and police planning and executing an 8 man snatch squad, only for a bloke with a hot chocolate and a young lad with a pepsi max to be led down the stairs.

They threw a flare when we scored and were removed. It was behind us.

 

[Sean Thornton]

I heard it was caused by SwissBlade when he found someone wearing a rogue half and half scarf………

Every club has it's clowns.

Leeds would've took more

 

[Cappy]

If a flare was thrown, let’s just say the older fella who took custody of it was quite happy to do so, before the neon crew arrived

Pepsi according to an eyewitness in the post above.

Anyone witness any of the trouble round the coaches after the game?

Yeah Alan knill and Matt Prestridge were going at it.

That reminds me of Port Vale away days

Starting to feel like Kate Adie now but think it was fairly minor and the police enjoyed it more than anyone else.

 

[Bladesman101]

We fell over when we got the second and the woman at the side of us gave us daggers for the rest of the game!

Always been feisty at stoke especially clockwork orange days

 

[Hillsboro Blade]

Port Vale and Stoke hooligans. About as intelligent as a very shallow soap dish.

I remember in 2007 for some reason the fixture was selected as a Sky one and was an evening kick off, Blades fans fighting blades fans, literally rolling down the seats and the steps. Then they brought in a copper with a camera and a load of Stewards, from memory that was "young BBC" vs "the OG BBC" probably in a book somewhere now haha

We were hurdeling in a graveyard one season in 70's. Next time I went probably season after we were lined up outside railway station with a row of coppers in front of us and as the stoke fans walked past they we throwing punches in between coppers heads whilst coppers laughed.

yeah can remember going on the open end opposite bootham in 72 when stoke paraded league cup we drew 2 - 2 but got scary when about 100 stoke fans came on the end led by a big guy with red curly hair think he was the main man from the bootham end

 

[Bladesman]

Did anyone get kidney punched? If not, why not?
