The Chester FC fans erupted into the sick chants, shouting ‘Scotty’s in a box’, during a minute's silence to the Gresford Mining disasterFootball thugs who sang sick chants about a dead rival supporter during a minute's silence have been banned from matches for a total of 30 years.The hooligans mocked a Wrexham supporter’s tragic death, shouting ‘Scotty’s in a box’, in reference to Scott Torrens – who died after suffering a seizure in his sleep in November 2013.Mr Torrens brother was in the Swansway Stadium watching the match, the The minute's silence was held to mark mark 80 years since the Gresford Mining disaster but was plunged into disarray.The ten fans - who were identified from footage of the match broadcast live on BT Sport - were slated for their ‘disgraceful’ behaviour by magistrates who banned them for a number of years.“What we have seen is beyond anything that should be seen at a football match,” said presiding magistrate Theresa Whittingham after watching the footage during the hearing at Chester“We all understand passion but that was not passion, it was threatening, abusive and distressing to watch.“At a football match there are families with young children. Wrexham fans were ferried to the "bubble match" at Chester on Saturday via designated transport only. Police have lifted the ‘bubble’ status so the focus on the fans will be even more highlighted. As it happened, despite going into the game with a poor form of recent games, Chester won the match 2–0. A great ending for Chester in dramatic finale…..If you’re going to the match then hopefully you enjoy it. Also they are the only clubs in those areas to have played in The Football League. This in itself also makes it unique to other football derbies in Britain, as national identity is a large part of the two teams.Being a huge football fan myself I must admit I’ve never really understood football violence.

The Wrexham v Chester bubble match passed off without major trouble last night as large police numbers kept rival sets of supporters apart.
As I said, I don’t get the ‘hate’ angle myself.Attending a Celtic v Rangers fixture in the 1970’s (at the height of football violence really) was more of an endurance, survival exercise than a sporting spectacular to savour. I’ve been to big derby matches with differing reasons for the rivalry. Show some sense and get behind your team and enjoy it for what it is. Hundreds of police officers were deployed across Chester hours before the game's kick-off at 8pm, with some witnesses reporting 'riots' in the city centre from as early as 3pm. No doubt one of the reasons for this is due to the close proximity of Wrexham and Chester as they are the largest settlements in the area. It is called the cross-border derby because Chester is in England, while Wrexham is located in nearby North Wales. I’m loathe to use the word ‘hate’, especially when it comes to a football match, but there seems to be more ‘hate’ in a fixture against Man Utd than against Everton. Two men from Wrexham aged 25 and 20 and a 14-year-old boy from Wrexham as well as four men from Chester aged 23, 28, 33 and 49 are being held on suspicion of affray. There has also been 34 draws. Why scare the living daylights out of them? Nothing more, nothing less.Finally, why not post your thoughts of the game here, win, lose or draw. Liverpool v Man Utd; Liverpool v Everton; Celtic v Rangers and Chester v Wrexham are matches I have attended. The hatred was so intense. They have recorded 68 wins compared to Chester’s 52 victories.
