[Football] Flares and banger

[portslade seagull]

I see the Palace schoolboys still managed to smuggle in their flares and Bangor.
Poor old boys next to me jumped when they let that thing off woke them both up
Wonder if the stewards did anything

Don't waste time wondering....

You already know the answer to that question.

theyre such t w a t s - that bang was so loud it shook the stadium, probably burst the eardrums of their own fans

Bit like burning your own town

What annoys me more than anything else about this is that prior to getting to my Upper East seat I was searched (pat down), then the magic wand whisked over me and finally asked to remove my hat. I carry a Lipsil which is about the size of a small flare, but never asked what it is. Does anyone carry an inhaler which is a lot larger and if so do you get asked what it is?

At away games it's just as bad. Leeds had 2 dogs checking everyone. So how did they manage to get these fireworks into the Amex?
Don't get me wrong, I'm all for security at any large event and the last thing we need is some idiot with a bomb. So if there are dogs looking for explosives, why did the dogs not find them?

The stench, it overcame the poor dogs senses.

What worried me more is how those chavy pricks managed to nick the power cables to the ground. Or was that the bang?

I find it somewhat amusing that @Bombardier was the first to like your post.

Imagine having to stuff Bangor up your arse to smuggle it into the ground!

The banger went off just as we were mounting a really threatening attack, which as a result, faltered. Tactical bang from the t w a t s.

That bang also killed the singing from the away section. Must have shocked them all.

Also, how loud those things are, you could easily damage your hearing if nearby. I’m sure the perpetrators would have needed to cover their ears but with no care for other fans near.

Forever totally thick, that bang may’ve permanently damaged the hearing of their folk in the vicinity. Including children. I know this from consultations with an ENT expert, one of their first questions is have you ever experienced a very loud sound?

Any sensible CP visitor should be furious.

There was singing from the away section?

I went in East Upper and was asked to remove my hat but no search, which surprised me (I'd left my penknife at home but still had my torch).

They were so so quiet - totally outsang from start to finish

Didn't they have a lovely time though?

 

[BNthree]

Really crap smoke bombs from them, seen bigger plumes from someone vaping.

Second half the area that the smoke bombs were coming from had a LOT of police attention.

 

[TWOCHOICEStom]

"Flares and Banger" sounds like wonderful cabaret act.

 

[LamieRobertson]

Don’t they look so menacing

 

[Monkey Man]

Their pyro boys are not the brightest. Remember that game at the Amex a few seasons ago when they set one off just as a corner was being taken?

It was THEIR corner.

What's the collective noun for a group of Nigels?

 

[brighton_tom]

With the 2 flags & a couple of smoke bombs/bangers they really do look pathetic when you compare to the ultras of Italian teams which they so obviously liken themselves too
