The Walsall lot on twitter seem to want everything short of finding the culprits and chucking them in the stocks, don't condone any disrespect from the so called "fans" and hope they are swiftly found, dealt with and banned, but can't help think this is a way of turning eyes away from the result. If it was a different scoreline I don't think we would have heard a peep of outroar.
Turning eyes from the result? They were actually very complimentary of our performance on social media last night.

Who was the referee for last nights game? He had a good game apart from not booking their number 2 White for repeated fouls. At one point he wrapped Kay round the goal post.
Ref owed us a good game after Salford away last season

He was from the 1970s I think.

or maybe some forum users havent heard the footage or stand anywhere near?
still stand by my comments, some users on here are desperate for there to be an issue to talk about other than the win, or the actual football
some are desperate to talk about the kids on the terraces which is disturbing to say the least
Don’t be daft Beachy. You seem very defensive of anything involving these youngsters. Time you joined the rest of us in calling out their pathetic behaviour.

If our watches were right we played more than the five added on, possibly two minutes more which would’ve been hard to take if that last shot of theirs went in.
Must admit I didn't think we played much more than an additional 30 seconds, based off a look at my watch just before they had that last chance.
Just checked ifollow when Clarke`s late shot when wide it was 5mins 11 seconds ref blow final whistle then, so only a few seconds over, but when you just want that whistle is always seems longer.

Where’s the mods at ?, nearly a full page + of arguing and some WUM from Carlisle, all about nothing to do with the match itself. No wonder people stop using this forum.
Maybe the mods sometimes have better and more important things to do than deal with idiots arguing and posting on a public forum.
One post has been reported on this thread and that post and all those quoting it have been deleted
Anything else you would like me to do ?

And of course we must remember that it's a MINIMUM of 5 minutes. Though I don't understand why the vast majority of televised matches finish bang on the stated number of minutes.

Should do what they do in Rugby League and take the time keeping away from the officials. They should also take on board the sin bin rule to cool a few hot heads down.

need anything else Hadrian? good performance last nite eh?
Thanks again. (Don't remember a Chesterfield 'keeper incident; no matter.)
All the games I have seen this season, back to the friendlies, have been good. Terrific work ethic, exemplified by Gordon and Gotts last night. Pleased to see Warren apparently coming good after shaky moments in earlier games. A good prospect.

Absolutely, but I’d rather talk about the fantastic performance of our team, but from what you normally post, you probably weren’t even in attendance last night. But really well done for posting a pre match number of away fans, though you were well out
“Smart lad”
You know the forum gobshite has been shown up for being a gobshite when he actually wants to discuss football for a change
Think your skating on thin ice now son! Be careful with your language.

Not nice what’s been reportedly said to the Walsall fans and certainly not very tasteful but it’s not illegal and you can’t prove it anyway. Just forget about it

That was the Colchester keeper, Shamal George, who has now gone to play in Scotland. The incidents from the mindless few tarnish the reputation of the club in general, and potentially do much damage which is difficult to assuage. Yes, a lot of them juveniles, but they need education and if that doesn’t work condign punishment. Easier said than done I know.
