Do you think the Pats fans in there that the City fans started on were completely random? Or do you think the City fans knew who they were expecting to see in there? I think both sets of fans were hoping to bump into each other at some point. If it didn't happen in McDowells it could easily have happened on the street.
For the record, I was in the smoking area in McDowells three or four years back and some random Pats fans starting throwing chairs around. I have no idea if these are the same people. It was very bizarre, started out of nowhere, I didn't even see most of it as I had my back to the door and it was over in seconds. This isn't whataboutery. I think all these individuals are scum and should be banned, I just don't think the Pats fans involved in McDowells are angels and shouldn't get a free pass. I hope the CCTV footage shows exactly what happens and everyone involved gets banned.
I'm also not referring to anyone caught in the crossfire.
