Middlesbrough Disabled Supporters minibus "attacked&quo

[readingbedding]

It's a wind-up.

[rodnich]

If it is, then the guy who is slandering our good name should be given a little talking to!

Yeah damn right. We should smash his Mini-bus up!!

[zac naloen]

It's a wind-up.

Got any proof beyond your opinion?

[Farnborough Royal]

if its true then its absoloutley disgraceful.

[wehateoxford]

has ANYONE heard of the scorpions? i wont comment either way as its unknown, but if a group called the scorpions associate with Reading, and a borough fan knows it surely someone on here does too?

im cynical but considering our fans were telling a man on crutches to oxf*rd off, you never know

[SpaceCruiser]

I've heard of the Scorpions and I thought they were a bunch of wind up merchants on OAE. I said as much on OAE and I was amused to get some abuse for it.

[Sharpy]

I heard of them, after that 200 man ruck in ice bar a year or 2 bk

IMO:

As mentioned earlier; "The Scorpions" are our made-up "firm", courtesy of OAE.

Boro's main message board is their Rivals one, so that is why they will have heard of them - via the Rivals link. They probably wouldn't know any better that they are just a wind-up.

I certainly wouldn't discount the incident so readily - every club has an attachment of knuckle-draggers. It could, of course, also be a complete windup from the Boro side, but it doesn't really read that way, does it?

[Jackson Corner]

You would think they would have been mentioned on these boards at some point? No one has heard of them. I walked pass the Boro coaches going out and saw nothing and there was a high presence of poiice an stewards.

[alad]

Just because shirters haven't heard of them doesn't mean they don't exist.

99% of people don't have a clue what goes in before or after games

To be fair, sounds like these Boro fans were asking for it, you just don't drive through a group of fans and gesture like they were doing, retards or not.

[Zammo]

[poohs pure]

i preferred my picture of them

[Royal Yorkshire]

If the incident that I saw is the one this chap is referring to then what I believe happened went something like this:

gorup of friends and I walked past the mini bus, waving at the occupants as we did. A few occupants of the minibus waved back, couple of fingers were shown, someone waved a fist - usual stuff.

We walked on thinking nothing of it.

few seconds latter there is a load of banging on the side of the minibus - from what I could make it it was and individual and clearly a bit of an idiot. I guess he was responding to having fingers waved at him, although blatently he was OTT. We were about to go an tell him what a tit he was being except it lasted about 5-10 seconds untill the minibus drove on, and peace was restored.

Now I fully agree that this was out of order, especially given disabled kids on boaed etc...

...but that post is joke. Attacked, Scorpions, Neanderwhatevers - what a load of sh 1 te.

Bring on the Villa

Exactly, over-reactionary bobbins.
Nothing to report - move on.

[Muskrat]

Apparently though one of the disabled Boro lads was so traumatised that he may never go to a Boro game again.

The lad, who only wanted to be referred to by his nickname - Boateng, said he was bullied by two Reading boys called Sidwell and Harper all game long and it has put him off football for life.

Boateng was born with two left feet...

So lets get this right.

A group of RFC fans got involved in a exchange of insults with a minibus of disabled away fans including children. It led to one of the RFC fans attacking the outside of the minibus.

Well done. You're a bunch of pricks.

And there's another over-reaction.

[Alan Partridge]

Scorpions Err I don't think so .

Still OAE in the news again!

[SpaceCruiser]

Do you by any chance come from Middlesbrough?

I suspect that this message was posted with some hint of sour grapes.
