They create atmosphere and without them we won't have a future, lets look after them. Shrewsbury away 22/01/2022 > Last minute winner, flare from the yoof, limbs everywhere., i am hoping Morecombe is the same. I agree, they create atmosphere, and long may that be the case. But pyrotechnics are prohibited unfortunately, and chucking shit at opposition fans is beyond reproach. Stop those 2 simple things, and there's no issue. If you're excited by smoke bombs, invite some kids round to set them off in your garden. Edited February 4, 2022 by Cheese Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The grown ups in that section need to start laying down the law really, or the kids are going to fuck it up for all of them. The club don't have much choice if the EFL and Police are piling on the pressure with threats of fines etc. Agree for the most part. My concern would be an adult trying such would end up on the wrong end of a few pepped up scrotes, or would end up banned for trying. It's a shame that they can't see what their actions might achieve- as cassy says, just stop chucking stuff and letting flares off and all is well. Those actions don't contribute to the atmosphere anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Spider Posted February 4, 2022 Site Supporter Share Posted February 4, 2022 Did he refer to the upper stands as “upper bowl” tickets in that article? What a wanker I bet his teeth are white as snow, and he carries moisturiser instead of a wallet. Upper Bowl. Good Lord. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally i love a good flare/smoke bomb, i suggest you pop to Barton Grange Garden Centre on Saturday afternoon, it might be more your scene 😀 Give over. They're illegal whether you like them or not. Folk could approach their mp and launch a campaign to have them permitted, but until they are, continued use is only going to make matters worse for everyone.

Leyther_Matt Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 1 hour ago, gonzo said: Theres not been any trouble in IL2 for about 15 years. Its full of blokes who spend most of the game at the bar. Thats been my point. The trouble is a block of 20 seats max. Bringing IL2 into it is fuckin ridiculous. The top tier is closer to the aggro than my seat. The block thing is a bit misleading really as it covers from that one actual block of seats which in that particular area of the ground covers a wide range of people as you say. Bit of a weird quirk that goes way back to when the stadium seating map was first developed (and that nobody notices apart from sad bastards like me who have to build such maps).

Duck Egg Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 The bits of trouble I've seen in the ground this year came with the 2 largest away followings. Sunderland and the pie eating wankers. Would seem daft closing off any part of East lower when around 3/4 of our opponents will be bringing less than a thousand. Reduce the number of away tickets, problem solved.

Stewarding in IL2 is very hands off. Bloke stood on his seat all thro the Sunderland game, right by the entrance tunnel & Wasn't pulled up at all. I've had to move youngsters on from my seat a few times this season, not as much recently though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Sheep Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 This threat to close the IL1 & IL2 sections is a fcuking disgrace from BWFC - why not stop being so greedy and giving away fans such as S/land a 5k allocation, sell 500 or 1000 so less & put a decent section of empty seats between the ESL and the away fans & also perhaps improve the standard of stewarding. This only ever happens when they give away fans the whole end. If they shut IL1 & IL2 they may as well close the stadium as there will be no atmosphere at all (by the way I don't even sit in the ESL). The players must have loved the atmosphere & noise IL1 & IL2 created in the past few games - get a grip BWFC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter MickyD Posted February 4, 2022 Site Supporter Share Posted February 4, 2022 It does seem rather strange when the club, by inviting away fans to use the whole away end are also inviting trouble inside the ground. As we've had two of the three expected full houses it'll be interesting to see how it plans out against Sheffield Wednesday. Bet they get 5000+ tickets because the club will put profit before safety.

Ghana White Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 Fantastic prices.. bit of a side note but Hart seems obsessed with killing the atmosphere at the match.. you'd think it was 1970s at The Den the way he goes on about banning fans and police advice.. shutting crazy corner??

Do you think it's entirely a bwfc thing, or possibly something to do with the police and licensing authority? As for reducing nunber of away fans- we'll there are still plenty of seats available in the home section, so why not allow the opposition plenty; it's more money in our coffers. Quite simple: stop chucking shit, or has long covid left thousands with twitchy arms? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
