SaintDougie Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 The only way I could possibly imagine someone needing to stand up to check their phone is if they were wearing ridiculously tight jeans to the point they couldn’t even get it out their pocket in a sitting down position. Still no need to remain standing though, would take a matter of seconds at most. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St Mikey Posted August 17, 2011 Report Share Posted August 17, 2011 They do use excessive measures but are lacking in intelligence to put them forward. Telling someone to sit down when they no nothing of the reason why they are standing up is borderline harassment. Security is not the word. It is crowd safety and I think 8 young ones standing up shouting doesn't constitue a 2,000 fan riot but simpleton stewards can't cope with that. It not just us it's everywhere.

Dylan-Saints Posted August 17, 2011 Report Share Posted August 17, 2011 The stewards dont let a couple of hundred saints fans stand up but in grounds like anfield and old trafford a whole stand will stand for the whole match Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott1884 Posted August 17, 2011 Report Share Posted August 17, 2011 Never had a problem with the stewards. Probably because I don't feel the need to stand when I've got a seat to sit in. Agree & if people stand up in front of you you can't see a bloody thing. If fans want to stand then the club will have to create a terraced area.

Saint Jim Posted August 17, 2011 Report Share Posted August 17, 2011 The stewards dont let a couple of hundred saints fans stand up but in grounds like anfield and old trafford a whole stand will stand for the whole match Since you have such a problem with the stewarding why don't you volunteer for G4S and go into the away stand to tell the other fans to sit down? Either that or sit on your arse and enjoy the match Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Real Madrid Posted August 17, 2011 Report Share Posted August 17, 2011 I do wonder if some people actually come to watch the football and support the team or do they come to watch the opposition fans, wind up the stewards and the police. If the latter is the case then why dont Saints cash in on this and open the ground on other days so they can come and do this for 90 minutes with no game to distract them.

newyear'sday97 Posted August 18, 2011 Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 no we go to watch the football and also have a good time eg standing up and singing,but with the stewards at mcdiarmid that is near impossible Earlier in thread the excuse for standing was to check a phone - now the excuse for standing up is to sing. Do you guys sit down to have a dump? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
