Is someone out to GET Harty

Sounds more likely that the bloke was wound up at you having the audacity to tell him to stop swearing and was looking at an opportunity to have a dig at you. If it was the club I'm sure they would have known who Harty is and would have a more subtle way of creating an incident.

He was obviously going to "have" you as just having verbals can be done in view of people but when he saw the witnesses and possibility of mates he dipped out, probably telling his entourage he decked you!
 


Given the club's senior management's shameless and highly dubious leaning on different forms of local media, why would anyone be in the slightest but surprised if this was sanctioned rather than a coincidence? Dodgy.

I knew there was a box in the West. The door is always closed too, unlike all the other boxes in the corridor who mostly leave the doors open. Now I understand why :wink:


Icy come in and have a drink at the Wigan game.

On the subject of yesterday, both Tilts (Richard Tiltman) and I commented that we had someone sitting directly behind us for the first time this season. The behaviour of the individual was out of order but what was equally as bad was the fact the stewards could see and hear what was happening but did nothing.

I obviously have the seat numbers and will be contacting the club tomorrow, whilst like the rest of NSC I love a conspiracy, having sat down this morning and thought it through I don't think Paul Barber would be stupid enough to instigate such things, in point of fact despite our differences I think he's bigger than that. (Bellotti tried all manner of things between 1995-97, and now as back then, I won't fold at the first sign of bully boy tactics)

I think given the amount of empty seats the drunk has sat in the wrong place and purely by coincidence he's sat behind us and then behaved like a complete ****, but he would have done that wherever he was in the stadium.


Hopefully CCTV will identify him and the club will take the appropriate action.

Harty will have to change his route going home now. In case of ambush.

Well when you finally get round to that invitation of having me and Bushfire sit with you, you'll hear some proper swearing you big drama queen.

What are the odds on finding Harty crushed under a 50,000 word response next week?

You made it clear before the game that Harty was inviting you into his box, perhaps they weren't trying to intimidate the wrong person...

I thought irony of his "critique" of PB's lengthy programme notes in the Broadwater Binfester last week was notable. As one of the mods has already commented, all it really said was "We're not very entertaining to watch atm".

To be honest you stand a reasonable chance of sitting front of someone who spends the whole game swearing and being generally obnoxious. I spent a couple of years at Withdean and more years at the Amex with idiots behind me who couldn't care less if there were women and/or children around listening to their abuse. Just need to get the stewards to do their job and if they don't I am sure an email to Mr Barber will get the appropriate response.

One of the benefits of being a non-STH is sampling various seats around The Amex. Until recently I had shied away from ESU because being a family stand the atmosphere could be a bit tame.

I finally relented when taking along a mate for his first Amex experience ('Boro) and opted for seats in ESU so he could savour the view of the stadium in all of its glory. It was great to see several generations of Albion fans sitting together. OK the atmosphere in the ESU could hardly be described as 'rocking', in fact the PA didn't seem very loud - and GOSBTS was barely audible, which is a great pity.

However I was surprised at the prolonged vitriolic language being tolerated by fans and the stewards. My mate and I are both quite worldly and not at all put off by some Anglo Saxon expletives, so didn't worry us. To be fair several (but not all) of the perpetrators appeared to have really enjoyed their pre match liquid refreshment. Just a surprise that the atmosphere was not as genteel as previously suggested on here. I suppose it shows just how frustrated the fans are getting if the punters in the ESU are feeling that sour!

BTW my mate was willing to become an Albion convert but understandably he looked baffled by the football on offer.....

If Harty invites you into his box, you know your times really up...
A photo would have been of use going forward, anyone take one?
