They were making life difficult for the Cops at Altrincham station. We boarded at Hale to avoid these morons. The cops cleared a carriage to accommodate this mouthy mob. I have never seen so many Cops at Stockport Railway station. Both entrances were blocked by police and numerous cops on all platforms. The Alty police kept them on the Chester-Manchester train and they were still there when I boarded the Euston train (first stop Stoke). I don't think the Macc fans would have been allowed in to Manchester, considering all the noise they were making - although it was quite clear that they were all mouth. And most of them were probably too young to drink. And it was quite obvious that they were acting so stupidly because the police there would be obliged to protect them from any reception in Altrincham, Stockport or Manchester centres.
