I don't condone violence, but standing up and supporting your side is fine by me. Lord Justice Taylor said standing wasn't unsafe if it was implimented properly. Standing up in an all seater stand with no fences is fine. We have ben doing it for years and theres been no problems. If it was unsafe surely they'd have been hundreds of incidents. If it's safe to stand up and jump around when you score a goal it's safe to stand for 90 minutes.

Cheers mate, just a shame our home support isn't half as good as our away unless it's a massive game :ph34r:

Everything is avoidable in practice. Car crashes are avoidable if people didn't use cars. In the real world some things are unavoidable. The extra money we gave your club through 7,000 tickets sold and money spent in local pubs more than makes up for a few idiots causing damage. Not that I condone the trouble, but if you have thousands of fans drinking all day when you will get some people who want to start trouble. In that respect it's unavoidable. Unfortunately we have some idiots who like to cause trouble when we go away, it's the price we pay for having the best away support in the country. The away culture at United is one of the few traditional things left in modern football. We stand up and don't take any crap from stewards. Whenever we're in town clubs just leave us to it now, we have won the battle against being made to sit down.

Because theres a large element in our away support that causes trouble, has been for years now and nothing can be done about it. I don't condone it, and think it's pathetic but unfortunately that is the way it is at United especially at the big aways where we get a large allocation. It shoots ourselves in the foot because you're one of few clubs that give us a big allocation. The likes of Boro only give us 1,500. Yet those that cause trouble moan when we get small allocations, yet when we do get a decent one they cause trouble. One or two idiots might have made some noise in the ground but anyone that did was told to shut up. Don't tar everyone with the same brush mate. I can't take your comments on Ronaldo seriously, he was kicked viciously in the first half and again in the second. He didn't fake any injury and is a doubt for Portugals game Wednesday due to the foul late in the game. He was signalling to come off when the ball broke to him and he tried to play on but unfortunately had to come off.

The people chanting during the silence were ###### up Reds who were coming through the concourse and didn't realise it had started. They were told to shut up by other Reds. We don't disrespect silences at United, other sides do so out of hatred. Leeds United and the Busby silence and last season City and Liverpool during the Best silence. The trouble that occured at the petrol station and outside the Fernhurst was unavoidable, when you have such a large and volatile away following as we do, trouble was always on the cards especially with the late kick off time. Nothing can be done about it, just one of those things, just be glad you don't have an element up for trouble or things would have been ten times worse. Credit to the Blackburn fans I spoke to after the game, complimented us on our superb support and performance from the team. I thought we played very well, especially in those conditions. Some good football and if Rooney had his shooting boots on the game would have been over at half time. Only one gripe, I can't believe the stick Ronaldo is getting from some Blackburn fans on here, he was outstanding yesterday again, especially in the second half. People often have ago at his type of players for going missing when it's cold and wet away from home, well he got stuck in despite being kicked cynically on more than a few occasions yesterday and in the second half tore you apart down the right. The only thing that was disappointing were his finishes, the first one afer the break and the second when he beat two men, did the hard work then smashed it wide. I understand people hate him, but give the lad some credit, he stood up to be counted when many so called top players would have bottled it in those conditions. I also think Scholes was MOTD, he bossed the midfield and never put a foot wrong. I thought Blackburn deserve credit for giving it a real go with key players missing. The game wasn't safe untill the final whistle blew and we knew we had been in a game. Play like that against Arsenal and Liverpool and you'll get the points. You will pick up and with one or two signings in January finish in the top half pretty easily. See you at OT for the return game, all the best for the rest of the season

I think alot of you are being harsh on your side. You gave us a much better game than most sides have this season. You didn't throw in the towel and kept battling away and forced us to really earn the three points.
