Thanks to the fans standing up for my dad last night
Last night in what should’ve been a moment of joy and celebration after we got the penalty two male fans decided to start threatening my dad for recording some of the game on his phone. He’s also an older gentleman who struggles to see so it helps a bit in the top tier.
It was nasty stuff and two of them tried to grab his phone out of his hand and said he wasn’t supporting the team (my dad had been singing all night and all they’d done was have a go at another fan). Then another fan decided to stand up for my dad and these two thought they’d try and start and fight with that fan too cause how better to celebrate being 1-0 up in a champions league semi than fighting your own fans?? A female fan also decided to report this to the stewards which I imagine must’ve been hard because she was sitting between the two men in question and she did it infront of them. The club steward did a great job too I have to say.
Luckily plenty of our fans came out to bat for my dad but the experience still shook him.
Personally, if you decide to start on your own fans you’re clearly not a decent person and shouldn’t be welcome at the match. I want to thank the fans who got behind us last night and came to bat for my dad too. We’ll have a day when these miserable gits are aged out of our club. UTA
