We're as bad as Leeds and Millwall. What's happened to my nice family club?

Thought it was a bit strange when me and 2 mates got back to Brighton Station, we were held for about 20 minutes and I asked one of the cops what's happening- he said your going back to Reading on this train! I said but we're staying here in Brighton- so then they got the top police guy who said in a menacing tone "if you can't prove your staying here your going back to Reading" .
Could of been tricky if we lived in Brighton and only had a house key to prove it. I don't even live in Reading anymore, imagine if that was Chelsea v Man Utd and they sent the united fans to Manchester! All that way from home ........

In terms of trouble by the station - it all started in the Grand Central pub - 20 Reading fans and I'd say 15 Brighton fans (maybe more of both) chanting at each other inside - police oddly closed the pub but with the fans still inside (presumably waiting for back up) - the Brighton fans then started to chant "we're top of the league" resulting in 5 minutes of constant pint glasses being launched around the pub and a mass brawl stopped only by the riot police entering the pub and carting the Reading fans out and holding them at the station, the police having multiple video cameras and dogs, and then escorting everyone on to the trains.
