Small transport company suffering damage like this to a brand new vehicle. Have to feel for them. Sounds like it was a good thing Lynn lost.

Always seems to be off the field issues in Football.  Racism still raising  its ugly head. Now vandalism.  They must have waited around after the game to carry this out as the team coach won't have left straight after the game.

Do we know if the Ref put in a report to the FA about the alleged Racism incident?

It's quite saddening to hear about such an unnecessary attack against the coach carrying our club players and staff.

Those of us who are old enough will remember the bad old days when violence, both inside and outside football grounds, was commonplace.

We certainly don't want to return to that. Ever.

Football has always attracted a certain element who aren't there necessarily to watch football.  Some just go to hurl abuse or look for trouble. It seems the pro game have a handle on racial abuse as was shown with the Liverpool v Bournemouth incident.  I'm not sure at our level very much has changed.  Only had to look at how our security guys dealt with the alleged incident at the Telford game.

 :scarf: It's not acceptable just hope if the FA are leaning on us they do the same to others equally to stamp this behaviour out.
