Greavsy 2,430 Posted August 17, 2022 now - I can read this two ways. 1 - its a reminder not to stand, or youll get a stadium ban. OR 2- the usual occupants of these seats have been guilty of persistant standing and received said ban. https://www.facebook.com/1FootballAwayDays/photos/1738064873224375 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nexus_Canary 1,027 Posted August 17, 2022 Bravo all people who stand at the football should be cut in half. Then we need to deal with the earlier leavers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KiwiScot 1,472 Posted August 17, 2022 Clearly these new rules are a follow on from all the recent pitch invasions and troublesome fans in conjunction with clubs "Values" and the nature these days in calling people out on things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

These sort of tweets annoy me to be honest, because he paints himself (imo) as an innocent victim with the club being all nasty. There is not a chance you receive a letter like this unless you've been warned on numerous occasions to sit down and have then chosen to ignore those warnings.

Bert 236 Posted August 17, 2022 There are a few new comers in the river end upper that think it’s acceptable to sing and not spend the whole game moaning surely a lifetime ban is coming there way Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm sure we're all guilty of standing at games at certain points, or having to stand for the full 90 at away games. I have sympathy for fans who want to stand and sing, but unfortunately until safe standing comes in it's not 'safe' and clubs will be punished if they don't crack down on it. We can debate the safety aspects etc until we're all blue in the face, but the rules are imposed on the clubs externally. You'd think if you actually wanted to watch the football you'd take it on the chin and just accept that the clubs have their hands tied. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think the reason he sees himself as a victim is that he says that everybody in his block stands but they’ve singled him out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, I'm sure that is what he claims. I'd wager that there is a lot of standing going on, but the majority listen when they're told to sit and a few of the regulars get a bit heated with the minimum wage stewards who've been told to try enforce the rules.

He also says they have started at the front of the block and are working backwards. I guess that makes sense, as once the people in the front stand up , no one else has a choice. Its like a reverse domino! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
