Smoke Bomb

[Giraffe]

Having gone through the QPR ring of steel double search and check that was impressive.

But what else could be easily smuggled in? Is there actually any point in the searches they do at football because it seems to me they only pick up your keys and phone!

Saw someone getting a small bottle of vodka confiscated. That also got taken out of the stand and I didn't notice them come back.

Did I see someone getting taken away from the pitch side? Might have been after the first goal.
And yes, if searches cant find a smoke bomb then why bother?

I had a full Ipad in my coat pocket, a bottle of water, a fatter than usual wallet and my phone. I was frisked and they did didnt spot or ask about any.

Could have been a tactical nuclear device.....

Yes you did
2 got on the pitch...

 

[The Sock of Poskett]

Didn't get frisked at all

Did they crack on with Barber's random ID checks?

Sniffer dogs. There's a notice at the away entrance, in the south stand, saying dogs are used for detecting pyros.

According to Twitter, there were four arrests for pitch encroachment.

We were al finger printed as we went in and one in ten people were strip searched.

Someone could have got their kid to carry it

"Ring of steel"? The steward on the gate glanced at my bag for half a second, patted my shoulders and let me in.

One of my travelling companions walked up to one steward, said to him "I've already been searched" (which he hadn't) and was waved straight through

They did not bother to search me. Must have an honest face.

Saw one guy get pulled out after the first goal celebration I can't condone his action but understand it, the players were there. To me the stewards should have told him to get back in the crowd. Had he had a lot of mates there that could have turned nasty for no real reason.

 

[Wrong-Direction]

I don't think I've ever been searched, famous last words as I'm planning on bringing inflatables to the last game..

I know someone who got thrown out of an Arsenal game for racist abuse after being reported by a woman in the crowd. His name was Triger and guess what this woman thought they'd been saying? Still weren't allowed back into game. And Police only let him go when showed his Facebook page to prove that was his nickname. A case of bad hearing but could have had serious consequences.

Only a half hearted pat down for me and my wife, I think they just go through the motions sometimes IMO.
Either that they wanted a game of patta cake patta cake

O/T....Lovely day to walk around Cliveden, hardly anyone there this morning

Yes, couple of blokes asked to see tickets in the queue before they opened gates at 6:30.
Not exactly the sort of people they need to check.
Gates opened as he asked me and he said don't worry..

They don't tend to search obese or smelly people either, but i'm sure it was the honest face what did it

Yep almost a waste of time.

Can't help but feel that football is a soft target for a terrorist, inside or outside.
