It's a stand off with stewards though, and then they juggle with the idea

that they've only got so many numbers

Then when they back off, there's the dick who won't accept the 'victory', and taunts the stewards for the rest of the match

Then his mate gets turfed out by accident, loads of fans spot that, get involved. The whole 25-30 minutes this takes place, I sit there thinking "and I've been issued with this seat, and have no other choice but to sit here and hope it calms"

It rarely does. Why? Because it's the very thing these people want the moment they wake up. It's their Saturday off
