After Stoke Eagles last game, a laboured lucky draw against the underdog team ' Bo IF ' , the Eagles fans started rioting and throwing bottles at the opposing sides supporters.

The instigators of the violence appeared to be the Eagles own fan club, the Choppettes.

Team manager and ex legendary player Marcus 'Chopperihno' reid had to step into the affray, as the choppettes started burning cars and turned on the police, the police who were starting to tear gas and kettle them, to keep the Eagles supportors away from the opposing suppporters.

Chopperihno quote - "I had to tell my loyal supporters that the bad result, a draw, that although it was a bad result it doesn't mean its the end of our season, since we can technically still finish first, but second is a more realistic finish, and to hopefully dispel any more riots happening again this season, I told the fans my bad tactics are to blame, and we will probably be lucky to finish in the top 5 , given our inconsistent form.

But we are still in with a chance, and the next game against
' USC Upstate ' is a big big game, a game we must win if we hope to achieve a number 2 finish this season.

Go Eagles".
