I'll be wearing my Red Star hat, the Albanian gypos will avoid me for fear of being ethnically cleansed.

You'll all be sorting the Munichs when you get back, glory hunter

Day 1, The Reebok is made out of concrete, Valley Parade was made out of wood like the Manny Road stand. Football has moved on an long way since then. These days, if there is a fire, they no longer lock all the doors and I know the way out. However, there should be someone there pointing to the nearest exit for those unfamiliar with the ground. Day 2, thanks all the same, there's more chance of there being a doctor or nurse in the vacinity anyway, plus there's 2 ambulances, St John's and the club doctor. Orange Warrior - get the fcuk off me. Are they trained in ball to head related incidents? :::::::: Day 3, I've seen both of those, Bradford was due to a wooden stand and lack of exits, we don't have these anymore. Hillsborough was due to a combo of pissed up Scousers, criminally incompetent Policing and the 10 foot high spiked fences that Thatcher introduced. The fences have gone, we now have an all seater stadium with a 2 foot high fence with a gate, I can handle that myself. What day is the tw?tting kids training on?

I ain't being chloroformed, mugged and bummed by some Albanians on the metro. Taxi for the Greek.

My primary thoughts are that the stewards are there to assist should there be a catastrophy, you know - fire, explosion, structural collapse, cat up a tree, the sort of stuff MickyD deals with. They would assist in the evacuation, and with that in mind, keep emergency routes and exits clear at all times. Conflict management, having a bronze swimming certificate or a penchant for getting 12 year old kids in a headlock doesn't help them, so it appears they have no relevant training.

That's what you call highly trained, an NVQ! Fcuk me, you should be on stage. Thanks for informing me who my local authority is though, I'd always wondered.

Fascists.

Maybe you should stick to bowls or dominoes then Grandad? I'd rather lose some coffin dodger than someone with their life infront of them personally, if only for the long-term well-being of the club. Indeed, if you think people should be assaulted for impinging on your enjoyment then you could do us all a favour and end it now. You have nothing more to give to civilised society anyway. Stewards are there to open a 2ft high gate should there be a crush and to keep the emergency exits clear, do you really think they could do ANYTHING if there was a serious incident? They aren't highly trained professionals, they are basically unskilled, uneducated people dragged off the street, that's why they are working for minimum wage. I certainly don't need them there for my safety, I do far more dangerous things than attending The Reebok each and every day. Indeed your journey to and from the stadium are probably by far the most hazourdous parts of the night.

And when they started using software I wrote

I was that close to booking a flight from Madrid to Porto and going watching Guimaraes v Naval too I'm buzzing

Stanley, I'm going to have bumsex with you!!! Went to Bradford on Saturday to watch them Art Brut, top of the pops!!!

And if you want an instant ban, just spam this site. Well done

The media had already starting wanking on about Pompey winning it, the Southern-centric cuntshovellers.

There are a ridiculous amount of bars in Bairro Alto then all the clubs get going on Avenida 26th July or whatever it's called, I was always too gary nevilleed by then anyway. All the people speak English, and enjoy doing so, it's nowt like Spain in that aspect. There's loads of restaurants in erm Restaurantadors, I paid about ?10 for lobster stew, cheap as chips. Coffee and cake shops are everywhere too. You can wander up to St Georges Castle (not actually his castle like), which has amazing views of the city. The best thing I saw was a cafe where you filled your plate up and they just weighed it and charged you appropriately. Can I suggest you leave the one man Leyth Army at home? He'll hate it, apart from the fact they all smook

Not good if you are after strip clubs and that lark, great if you like food, architecture and beer.

?

I've had tickets in the NS this season and it's pretty much impossible to see even what formation people are playing, these days I like to actually watch the game and you miss far too much behind the nets.

Anyone THAT concerned about watching football wouldn't choose to do so from behind the nets - FACT.

Indeed. This is our Rod: http://archive.thisislancashire.co.uk/1999/9/14/757861.html But is this also our Rod? http://archive.burytimes.co.uk/1999/7/22/764264.html

That was pretty much my understanding of it, based on studying it at uni (over 12 years ago).
