Stoke fans have been condemned for atttacking groups of teenagers and regular supporters following yesterday 3-0 thrashing at the hands of West Ham.
A group of male Stoke fans left the Boleyn Ground before the end of yesterday's game with the intention of causing trouble along Green Street.
But instead of seeking out groups of lads their own size, the cowardly bunch targeted individuals, or 'scarfers' as they are known - regular football fans who have no interest in violence.
One eye-witness told KUMB.com: "I was in the middle of it it right by Ken's Cafe. One West Ham scarfer walking along, minding his own business got a belt buckle across his face - and a three-inch gash to show for it.
"They were starting on groups with kids in; I know that as I had a friend's grandson and another bloke's lad [with me and] we had to get into the cafe, out of the way."
Another Hammers fan at the scene added added: "I witnessed quite a large and loud mob of Stoke 'fans' laying into a few West Ham kids outside Ken's Cafe. The Police were initially nowhere to be seen.
"When they eventually turned up, the same mob seemed intent on moving on to the main gates right into the regular home fans leaving the ground. "
The group, around 30-strong in number is said to have contained grown 'men' in their thirties and forties, as well as a number of youngsters.
The incidents are likely to provoke further problems when West Ham travel to Stoke next weekend for the FA Cup quarter final, for which United are hot favourites having not lost to the Potters in any of the three previous meetings thus far this season.
Not only are they dirty scum barstards on the pitch their fans are cowardly cnuts as well .
