SpaceCruiserleon Well done. You're a bunch of pricks.
Do you by any chance come from Middlesbrough?

Yeah and they started it anyway.

leonreadingbeddingRoyal Yorkshire If the incident that I saw is the one this chap is referring to then what I believe happened went something like this:
gorup of friends and I walked past the mini bus, waving at the occupants as we did. A few occupants of the minibus waved back, couple of fingers were shown, someone waved a fist - usual stuff.
We walked on thinking nothing of it.
few seconds latter there is a load of banging on the side of the minibus - from what I could make it it was and individual and clearly a bit of an idiot. I guess he was responding to having fingers waved at him, although blatently he was OTT. We were about to go an tell him what a tit he was being except it lasted about 5-10 seconds untill the minibus drove on, and peace was restored.
Now I fully agree that this was out of order, especially given disabled kids on boaed etc...
...but that post is joke. Attacked, Scorpions, Neanderwhatevers - what a load of sh 1 te.
Bring on the Villa
Exactly, over-reactionary bobbins.
Nothing to report - move on.
So lets get this right.
A group of RFC fans got involved in a exchange of insults with a minibus of disabled away fans including children. It led to one of the RFC fans attacking the outside of the minibus.
Well done. You're a bunch of pricks.

working class hero Whether the Scorpions exist or are a figment of the fevered imaginations on OAE is debatable. However, anyone reading OAE would be likely to believe that such a firm does exist. The FMTTM thread merely asked if this attack was the scorpions....
If the chair of MFC Disabled Supporters claims they were attacked it is rather likely to have happened. I cannot believe he would make up a story about a club whose fans have no 'previous'. If you were going to invent a story then surely WHU or Chelsea would be more believable?
Why would they invent this story? I can see no reason so tend to believe it happened. If some RFC idiot hammered on a window next to a kid then he might well be scared. Several of our fans were scared by the Wolves thugs at the play off semi - and they don't believe it happened.
As for heroes like alad: scaring kids is not exactly what I expect from grown men - even if you can claim provocation. And this is especially so if they are - in your delightful diction - "retards".
We all know the vast majority of RFC fans are decent people - but every time we play Oxford I see youths who I never spot at any other games turfing up and larging it up with 'banter' [aka a tirade of nonsense interspersed with swear words] and multiple hand signals.
I fear that now we are a Prem team we may find that we get more arseholey types coming along. FWIW I think we will need to be willing to admit that such events may occur - and be willing to report the miscreants.
Don't get me wrong. If 2 firms wish to get together on some waste land and fight to the death this is OK by me - but threatening those who are not interested is scummy. Indeed perhaps a fight to the death with baseball bats could be arranged at half time..... I bet there would be few brave enough to volunteer for such a show of gratuitous violence if they thought they might get hurt....

Scarface It's easy for us to write this off and say it's an overaction, but that was exactly the same as most Wolves fans said after our play-off game.

Indeed but when that made the papers here, as it has done in Boro, those complaining were happy to speak. That doesn't seem to be the case here.

You can ignore it, if it's too upsetting.

You're wrong on both counts Rainman.
It all sounds like a pretty pathetic business and one that reflects badly on RFC.
If that had been our fans, people like you would spitting their dummys out.
It's part and parcel of football in this country I suppose, gesticulating at disabled people in minibuses.
