Some Shots fans travelled up on the same train as us and were amongst about a dozen who were arguing with some of our local idiots who were also throwing stones across the railway line at Altrincham station on the way back. For this reason we usually board the train at Hale. However for the second time in a few weeks the Police were called to Altrincham Railway Station after an Alty match. This gang of Shots fans got very drunk on the train on the way back. One was already so drunk he couldn't operate the toilet door from the inside and I had to kick it open for him (no damage done). Then the train didn't connect at Stockport. As the train got closer to Euston, the louder and drunker they got and annoyed the Police at Euston. Myself and my kids sat in a set of 4 seats with a Shots fan travelling alone who was in his 30's, very pleasant but only claimed to "know of" these lads. It was only as we approached Euston I asked this Shots fan what he did for a living and he replied "Policeman"!!!! He said he thought the lads knew what he did, but he doesn't go to matches to babysit them!
So you can see the fun we have travelling from the South!!!!!!
