I’m just making the point that for many there were plenty of other chances to have encounters with smelly stuff. Probably 80% of people in the ground and 100% of those without tickets were on the lash.
I appreciate that’s far from ideal if you’ve got to go back for dinner on a cruise ship but I...
Point of order:
The stinking of beer line doesn’t take into account the facts that a) it pissed down for three days solid. One quick walk and your clothes were washed. B) Anyone the right age and not a tea totaler was on it for at least two days and probably stunk of booze anyway unless c) they...
If you'd seen me after England v Sri Lanka at Edgbaston the day after the Brexit vote, dressed as one of 30 Where's Wallys I'm not sure you'd conclude that beer in the seats of sporting events = nice things.........
I'd missed this particular hand wringing until it was just quoted.
Racism? :wozza:
The issue is perfectly simple. In Marseille and Amsterdam we were allowed to take beer into the seats whereas you are NOT in England. As @Easy 10 had it you are comparing apples and Phillip Schofield's scatter...
Possibly an age thing but it's always been part of football. I went to loads of games in the late 80s / early 90s when I was a youngster where I can only remember what happened if it was particularly memorable. The five penalties at Palace was one. Losing 6-1 at Oldham another, but that's...
If Ajax allowed our stewards and police into the away end they will have been expecting them to steward and police our fans. They may not have any LEGAL jurisdiction but they will have been allowed to steward what is essentially a public event to help keep that event safe. If they believe...
A mixture of this is probably about where I'm at TBH. If they were kicked out during the game then 5 games is about right as you'd expect a ban for getting kicked out for other transgressions, especially if you were handed over to our stewards / police. At least it's not being done...
Better a beer than a plastic chair. Apparently Chelsea come prepared with one smuggled up their backside. Did no one even chuck a bike in the ****ing canal?
:wink:
Really? Seems heavy handed but I’ve no idea how they’ve identified the fans when many were in the wrong seats. Quite a few attempts to steal aisle end seats in our section including mine at half time when I went for a wee. A few couldn’t find the correct ones in the confusing lay out and...
