Bill 1,788 Posted February 27, 2017 it might be difficult to ban someone from being a fanotherwise they have been stopped from having an official away pub as the can''t behave decentlyunfortuantely as tickets are allocated to those who have travelled away the most it does mean a fair number of over excited young farm hands will have ticketsmany who will have been at some illicit moonshine before setting offstill they were well policed yesterday, bar the odd gutbucket who could not control himself - most likely the effects of being in a full ground Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Len 74 Posted February 27, 2017 I think the police like to rely on horses. If we''re talking about Ipswich fans then the boys in blue need to treat the situation like a fox hunt. Round them up using horses, then send the dogs in to finish the job off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crabbycanary3 994 Posted February 28, 2017 We asked a police person, why there wasn''t a show of dogs, and they said they are only used as a last resort, and one reason stated was that , if someone, with more testosterone than they can handle, decides to get too close to a dog wanting to take it on, and the dog does it''s job, then there could be problems! A roll of eyes, and a comment along the lines of "Well, that''s its job" later.......The funniest sight I saw, was a pensioner, sarcastically applauding a senior copper and saying ''great job, looking after your own'', and the copper didn''t really know how to react.

Jim Smith 2,317 Posted February 28, 2017 Re the Snakepit - someone threw a flare onto the pitch after our disallowed goal. A few minutes later the stewards started wading in to try and remove a fan right in the middle of the block. I assume this was the fan they thought was responsible although I have no idea if he was. They did it in their usually stupid heavy handed manner which inflamed everyone in the vicinity and resulted in a lot of pushing and shoving. One very agitated bloke was going mental at the stewards for something or other.Basically they handled it very badly and it nearly kicked off quite badly but in the end it was mainly just pushing and shoving. Could have just waited for the bloke at the end of the game and intercepted him if they knew who he was. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crabbycanary3 994 Posted February 28, 2017 To be fair to the Stewards Jim, they couldn''t let that incident pass, without reacting. For all they knew, the guy could have had half a dozen lemon sherberts in his pocket. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was all handbags Jim, the biggest ruck I saw was some "hard" dick nose and a lardy lad having a go at a middle aged woman sat in front of him .If the stewards knew who threw the smoke bomb too right that they went in and pulled the guy out, he could have had a few more tucked away and caused a serious incident if they went off, you can''t just let that go till the end of the game.

Branston Pickle 3,657 Posted February 28, 2017 Re: the snake pit thing, just what the hell would you expect? You have to be a tit of the highest order to think you an come to a game these days with a flare, let it off and get away with it. Heavy handed stewarding doesn''t come into it.

CANARYKING 637 Posted February 28, 2017 Who ever had that flare should be banned for life, I''ve had the dubious pleasure of being '' bombed '' from above and I can tell you it''s no joke, the fumes can do serious damage to your eyes and lungs.

Bill 1,788 Posted February 28, 2017 "he could have had a few more tucked away and caused a serious incident if they went off, you can''t just let that go till the end of the game"aside from the obvious danger to others we are in the realms of negligence, any harm however trivial from then on would leave the club with the charge of failing to act - and given the way folk want to sue, the club''s insurance would deny any liability given how the club took no action at that stageand yes, it might be time for some exemplary ''punishment'' here so as to warn others offmaybe take a flare and shove it where the sun doesn''t shine before letting it off (if you pardon the expression) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
