We all see things different.

not clapping a dead man though...he done nothing wrong!

I shook hands with hundreds of Bruges fans before and after the game and exchanged my scarf as did loads of others. I found them (98%) good people.

You met the other 2%

I will apologise for my error and I hope you do the same regards your language. kids read this.

I agree the Bruges fans werent too loud, I struggled to hear them.

I thought Cov were loudest in FA cup in January.

Hit a nerve have I ? calm down. Foul language..tut tut..

OK, so we played them in the cup, big deal. No I wasnt there, nor was hardly anyone else.

Not surprising Sheff W were loud, only 10,000 blues and 4,100 of them.

If that makes you proud and gives you something to brag about..

I still think you're being very babyish about the Bruges fans.

Every blog site have nothing but praise for them.

EVERYONE clapping their DEAD player was a CREDIT to Birmingham.

You not bothering says it all..

birmingham1875....they were the best fans to visit St Andrews EVER !

I dont know what your problem is but you need to get over them.

Bruges Fans....RESPECT !!

Great fans, it was great the way everyone in st andrews stood up and clapped for that young player that died, great respect. both clubs have formed a great bond

I agree it was only a very small minority, their fans on the whole were class, had a great time over there too

[privatepike64]

@FlynnBcfc

Typical. One insignificant incident.

Blues are certainly no angels, our history proves that, but as soon as one away fan does one small thing its suddenly an issue.

My mate assures me that the way he said it, is how he saw it. You say you saw it different.

lets agree on one thing. It was a super night, lets not let one teeny weeny incident ruin it.

I have a Bruges scarf, I swapped mine after the game with one of their fans, and I will wear it to Stans in future.

@privatepike64

There was 2 seperate incidents, it was a can of fosters and then a bottle

Jumped on by his mates? it was threw from a packed crowd no one knew who it was and it come from far away so your mates made up the bit about "seeing" him get jumped, there were also brugge fans giving it the wanker sign, the majority were sound yes but youre chatting shit thinking we done anything to provoke them

[privatepike64]

@FlynnBcfc, I have a mate who was there. He says 'only 1 Bruges fan threw a bottle and was jumped on by his own mates, they apologised profusely'

Police told the bar staff to stop serving any Bruges fans so the Blues fans went in and bought drinks on their behalf. Hardly signs of animosity..

Birmingham1875 was saying a tiny part of what went on. Making choice statements is almost like 'not telling the whole truth'

Considering there were 3200 bruges fans in Brum this is the only incident.

@privatepike64

No blues provoked them at all, there was only about 20 blues outside the adam and eve

[stevebrugge3112]

privatepike64; welcome anytime! you're one of us now mate! cheers

[targetnitro]

Indeed best away support we ever had I think. But your support was pretty impressive as well. When you started, it automatically forced a time-out from our side. RESPECT bluenoses, hope we meet again!

never seen*

Massive respect to the Birmingham support, never heard anything like that! As for the bottle incident, I saw it happen, it was 1 very drunk guy and a lot of Bruges fans told him he didn't have to do that etc. After the game, Brummies were applauding for us, also never anything like this. Big up BCFC.
