Newport bus damage

[Connahs_Quay_Red]

Oh dear, poor this- imagine this brick/rock hitting a kid on his head?

Very naive and wil not help add to the warm welcome we always get at Newport anyway!!

It's nothing new..Half brick smashed through the window just in front of me, on the train coming out of Burnley, after the cup tie in the 70s..
We were also stoned in a (I think) Hanmers) coach at Crewe years ago...But this time ,the coach driver stopped, and a few gave chase, got the culprit and took him to the Police Station..

So just to clarify,the people who actually caused the damage are not to blame?

That sounds very like an incident after a match at Port Vale in the early 60s

It's a disgraceful and indiscriminate act which could cause major injury to a fellow football fan regardless of who they support.

Yet again an individual or small group cast a dark shadow over our great Club.

It sounds like a terrible throw back to the 70’s. I remember coming away from a Swindon away game, the cops told us to get on our knees as their idiots sometimes threw bricks. Our coach missed out but others didn’t. Misguided idiots, but they must be found and punished.

Horrible thing to do, what if it was young Gypsies throwing stones? If so it wouldn't have been necessarily "Newport targeted" as those people target anyone or anything that isn't one of their own.

Anything to do with this?

Wonder if all the coaches were under police escort when this happened - often happens all over the country but at some point the escort would have stopped and turned back - you would think that once the coaches got up to the A483 roundabout they would be away from potential harm and complete their departure under their own steam.

Could have happened as the coaches passed under A483 bridges perhaps ?

Regardless - it has done nothing to increase the safety of our supporters taking coach travel to the replay - reprisals can be expected.

Moronic behaviour - could have caused something far more serious than damage to a window.
