Just thought I needed to get a rant out of my system...
When CMS scored me and 4 friends (2 of which are 40+) in WSU Block F duly celebrated a goal V Palace like it should be. I bumped into the man in front of me (also I would say in his late 40’s) who with his wife throughout the goal just sat still.
He then proceeded to tell me that my over celebrating was dangerous as "I could easily fall on top of him, causing him to fall multiple rows forward"
I think my celebrations of jumping around for joy were acceptable; they clearly weren't to this JCL.

Against Leeds some BIG, BALD, 40's / 50's bloke with SANDALS fell two rows forward, knocked in to me, and would have DESTROYED the young lad that sits next to me whom had thankfully gone for a mid-game piss. He was sprawled out on the floor covering two seats. It took BOTH arms to pick him back up again. This is a few rows from the back of WSU. I'd like to think he would have gone the whole HOG had we beat PALARSE.
Commonly used in seventies...no truck-means 'no problem'....
I got told off by a steward cos one sleeve of my coat was hanging over the wall at the front of the north stand!
Having said that though, I have wondered about how easily I could topple forward over the seats in front.
i've no truck with yur celebrations....most of us were jumping around aftr that goal...but what if he was a ''jcl'' ....stadium wud b less than half full wudnt it....and whats its relevance..tell u what tell anyone who hasn't watched albion last year not to bother turning up...then u won't have a problem cos there will be loads of empty seats

Reading that hurt my brain. Either learn to use the English language correctly, or don't post at all. It's for the good of every poster on here.

This is why there is segregation in grounds.
Although most trouble is caused by twats not interested in football, I have seen just in two matches out of god knows how many hundreds where incidents led to fights and disputes which in today's climate could lead to fans being banned.
These were not irrational behaviour but emotions getting out of hand and cultural differences. Or mean bloody-mindedness in the case at Reading. When a third party tries to start a fight and the perpetrator gets off scot-free. (On the old stand up terracing, somebody at the back would push and all the supporters would go cascading down. Then somebody would turn around and accuse somebody and all hell would break loose! Notably at White Hart Lane.)
The first was at home to Villa in 1971 on the East Terrace after Willie Irvine scored and the second away on the steep terracing away at Elm Park, Reading, where it happened twice. We won 3-2.
There are lots of other incidents at grounds, notably at Selhurst Park (their lack of Police was admirable, no arrests), at Priestfield, Old Trafford and Brisbane Road, but these were not football related. The first one was herberts (pickpockets) and the last three were stewards being officious or looking for trouble (Old Trafford deliberately looking for trouble).
learnt to never stand in front of those blue metal rails, and stand at back out of trouble
Used to happen all the time in the North Stand at the beloved Goldstone, we score then a massive surge forward, learnt to never stand in front of those blue metal rails, and stand at back out of trouble
