Shaggy Jenkins Posted December 3, 2014 Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 Boys will be boys , gotta let them make their own mistakes before they learn . And part of that means there will be consequences for their actions. I.e act like a **** at the football and get banned.......Education, the system works.

Lincolnshire no More Posted December 3, 2014 Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 Reading this thread it is clear that it is the police that have banned them. Maybe the club were happy to ban them, but even if unwilling, they were never going to ignore "police advice". That kind of advice sounds like an instruction and if ignored by the club the police would still arrest them or prevent them from accessing the ground.

slf Posted December 3, 2014 Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 I personally go to the football to watch football. Not to listen to some prepubescent teenagers bang a drum and twirl scarfs. Couldn't care less about atmosphere tbh. Good for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you Lark, but you can't compare then with now, as times have clearly changed, although I heard that hooliganism has had a bit of a revival in England lately. I had no problem with the young lads either, unless they were out of order, which, at times, they were (in the context of today and not the 1970's) No doubt we are missing some of the atmosphere of last season, particularly at away matches.

Bev Callard Posted December 3, 2014 Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 the only ban worthy offence in my eyes is having Celtic as your "other team". At least one poster in the last few has that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamie_Beatson Posted December 3, 2014 Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 Can anyone actually clarify what number of people have been banned and what exactly for? I can't see any way that it would be down to "being too loud" or anything nonsense like that. There must be something in the background.

MrBored Posted December 3, 2014 Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 Perhaps an element of this is the police saying that if the 'young team' are at the ground we need to increase the police presence, adding to the policing bill to the club, which the club might feel out weighs the benefit they bring in terms of the drum etc. Also, if they have been taking drugs etc in the ground then whether its only on the odd occasion is irrelevant, there are young kids at the ground and they should have to see that type of thing. Finally, did we not get a fine for the flag and failing to control the crowd at the euro games? I suspect if thats the case the club don't want to take the chance when we are back in Europe next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
