I hope you're right and it all amounts to nothing. Just got a feeling the club are under pressure to knock it on the head. All the signs are certainly pointing that way.

Burndens Bogs Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 (edited) Be reet. Nice to see some passion amongst our support - although i hate the chucking stuff bollocks. Much rather see a bit of old fashioned toe to toe, away from the wimmin & kids obvs. Edited February 6, 2022 by Burndens Bogs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could it be that youngster's up and down the country seem to be letting out some pent up adrenaline after lockdowns, making up for lost time. Reckon there's definitely something in that It's always happened But seems to be happening a lot more this season Like Leicester today, never seen a fan take swings at players like that before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those of a like mind used to sort it out away from the rest of the fans in the main Seems these days it’s folk who like to hide in a crowd and lob stuff or set smoke bombs off in pubs.

Similar things are happening in Education, youngster's seem to think they can do whatever they want and blame covid, lockdowns etc... I'd imagine some will even use the anxiety card to absolve themselves of any blame. No doubt; I agree post covid, some folk have lost their shit. Still don't understand it though. Sooner or later some group of sociologists and psychologists will do a study and come up with a label for it. Still cunty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blondi Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 Getting hit with a lighter or a coin is nothing, darts & bricks used to be thrown back in the 70's and 80's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And some numpty nearly hits a couple of our players chucking on a bottle when he scored if you can keep an eye on the edge of the penalty area on the replay (definitely not an empty bottle to go that far). That said, it could have been worse… 😳 Lifetime ban, loses his job and a custodial sentence too I would guess. What possesses people to do that, I have absolutely no idea.

Like it or not, it's already biting us on the arse. The membership scheme, dressed up as whatever, still had its roots in the behaviour of a few; someone posted it on here, there was a comment about it in the explanation from the club.

Site Supporter MickyD Posted February 6, 2022 Site Supporter Share Posted February 6, 2022 Here’s a thing though, every football crowd has folk like Th’Ogden making videos of crowd reaction. Others, in their dozens and dozens just point their phone camera and press record. Not knowing if you’re going to appear on Twitter or Facebook doing something you probably won’t be proud of in the sober days after you’ve done something stupid would really make me decide it isn’t worth the few seconds of whatever rush it gives.

Take away all the danger and excitement of it being an illegal activity and nobody will be interested. I went to Toronto v New York a few years ago and ‘pyro time’ just looked lame as fuck tbh.

Site Supporter MickyD Posted February 6, 2022 Site Supporter Share Posted February 6, 2022 Do the police even have specially trained dogs for that? I’ve seen drug sniffers, money sniffers, cigarette sniffers, explosive sniffers but house brick sniffers? Never. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The smoke bombs get chucked because the ones setting them off don’t want to be caught. Take that risk away and they’ll either just keep hold of them and therefore avoid the panic and confusion that sometimes comes when they’ve been thrown, or alternatively it will stop being the cool thing to do and the next craze will arrive.
