FA Trophy 2nd Round

*Bad Language in both clips*

Clip 1

Clip 2

These are just two that I've seen. I'm hesitant to post links to the clips on here, but seeing as they're already on Twitter I don't see what more harm it'll do (I'll remove them if requested).

I'm just staggered that there's any sites that seem to make light of theses things.

All good thank you mate, just a bit of whiplash. Thing is, I pushed forward because one of them laid hands on my 72 year old Dad and then he hit me completely unprovoked and from the side.
 

I’d happily have a charity boxing match 😂 He wouldn’t be able to run then 😂

I was standing near the home dugout and my group were chatting about the game and shaking players hands then it kicked of so was not sure what was happening in the beginning.

So sorry to hear what happened to you and Dad wish you both well.

Excellent team performance.

I was sure they'd equalized when I saw the net ripple but apparently a wonder save from Dan Lincoln. Looking forward to seeing that save again on the highlights.

Draw is on Monday live on Talksport 2 at 3.15.

NL clubs enter the competition and the draw is not regionalised so hopefully we don't get another mammoth trip North.

A change from previous seasons, when it was regionalised until the round after clubs from the NLP enter.

Not only do they chop and change the format every few years (before changing it back to how it was), they also like to slip in these changes unannounced. Is it any wonder people get confused?

Not sure on the logic of bringing forward a non regionalized draw when smaller clubs are still involved with the possibility and cost of travelling from one end the country to the other.

12 hour round trip to sunny Gateshead anyone 😅

From Farnboroughs fans forum:

 

"Then our fan behaviour is just as bad. Who goes to a football game to get drunk and fight? It’s shocking - although seeing them around the ground they were looking for trouble. The club needs to ban them. That simple really."

Good to see they want to rid them selves of this scum.

Thing is we are playing Farnborough at home in the league in December. Could be interesting if these mugs start trouble again.

The one in the blue tracksuit looks like he is warming up for Strictly  Come Dancing

And the fat idiot needs a good slap for knocking over elderly Rebels fans.

Those of us who were around many years ago will remember scenes like these were pretty much commonplace at big matches and some Rebels' "supporters" were no innocents either. Wearing any of your colours could be a dangerous pursuit. The change in atmosphere since those days has been most marked and no one wants to see that nonsense getting any sort of foothold again.

As i was only a kid at the time , am i right in thinking that at the Amateur Cup game in 1972 against Blyth Spartans a fan was stabbed & there was a partial collapse of the small stand opposite the main one at The Dolphin ?

I think there was a mass punch up after we won 2-1.

Of course. How could i forget. Season 72/73. The year we reached Wembley.

One of the clips on Twitter has 1.6m views!! 1.6m people who have watched our club portrayed in a negative light. We were not at fault but you can see from the idiots commenting that they don’t care about that. I will never understand why someone’s first thought is to pull their phone out and film these things, and then post it on social media. I was there and it didn’t cross my mind to get my phone out. It’s not good for us. 
 

I think we also need to be careful what we wish for. I’m fuming about what happened. I’d love to see these idiots get the hiding they deserve, but Farnborough are back in 4 weeks. The fat stone island idiot and his mates will not show, but their decent supporters will. If we aren’t careful, we could get our own element, who’ve barely been to a game in years, turning up looking to “defend” the club. We have to get back to focussing on what makes Slough a great club and discourage any talk of revenge.

Spot on RW.

We've got to be very careful, the last thing we need or want is for the not so nice element coming to the game seeking a punch up.

The two video clips look like they were filmed by Slough fans and it was they who uploaded the content to the net for it to then be picked up and shared by the morons.

I take your point about how it speads, as Nathan with his limited IT skills was able to then find the clips and link to the videos on this thread! - It must be noted that Nathan did offer to remove the clips if required.

But there are more clips out there doing the rounds with the NOT Farnborough fans filming themselves setting off flares on their way to the game. 

One of my nephews already knew about the incident and the extra clips as he showed me them at a family gathering yesterday. 

He is 17 and the shareing of clips is endemic on social media.

Yep, he blindsided me with that punch!!

Get me in a charity boxing match with him 😂

Echo that, line them up one after the other and I'll happily do it for charity.

And the website now reminds that today is the anniversary of the club's first FA Cup victory over a Football League team, the aftermath of which made Saturday's events look like the proverbial vicarage tea party.
