The problem is that when that particular bar has been reached how much lower will they look to drop it next time , luzzing drinks is unnecessary and annoying but petty compared to other fan bases .
The more proper fans the club can ban, the quicker those fans can be replaced with football tourists who will spend stupid amounts of money on over-priced tat in the club shop. It is just part of the commercialisation of the game. If you haven't got a big wedge to spend, you aren't wanted.
See my row was full where my actual seat was so I just hovered at the end as we had all the tickets in the row up to the aisle, as I didn't want to stand in front of someone directly. I agree that up the back it did seem dangerous, but I'm shocked that stand hasn't been made safe standing which makes the whole process of fitting in much easier. I think that about Anfield its not big enough I've sat down at half time and my legs don't fit in the seats. I turned up to Fulham a few years ago and my seat just didn't exist which was annoying. I've just seen this email every single game for years, and I think we all understand it, they should identify who is causing the problems if they want to do something about it.
It’s not “sit down, shut up” though is it. That’s what a number on here are trying to suggest - but it’s simply not true. Jack has acknowledged that what happened at the back of the stand at Fulham was dangerous. The club can’t and shouldn’t ignore that. An email saying “please could we ask everyone to play nicely” isn’t going to make any difference to behaviour. This email has got people talking and thinking about it.
I don't know how you've arrived at : will we have to sit in our seat and raise our hand if we want to use the loo
So one of your mates or some random in your seat then?
I don't so the subject of the email doesn't bother me at all, however the underlying tone does bother me, there is an 'or else' and 'nanny's watching' undertone. It's not just the Albion it's becoming everywhere. How about actually policing/stewarding the matches properly and target those who are the actual problem and deal with them, rather than a lazy, cop out 'everyone stays back after school' approach? My guess is that would mean paying more than minimum wage. Someone at BHA has just ticked a box with this email.If you don’t act like a prick then the email shouldn’t bother you
You can’t even smash 6 bags and stick a flare up your arse at an England game without someone getting offended these days.
We had 10 tickets in a row, not entirely sure, I couldn't be bothered finding out, just seemed easier, everyone had booked together, my friends to be fair are generally quite tall/larger people. Adding to that with the Premier League there is a lot more seat politics than there has to be sometimes.
I can see Sandy, Benny, Dixon of Dock Green, two cats.... top work!
Yes you do know how i have arrived at that , take a look at all the other posts on here that say similar , and as i stated common sense is all that is needed , not treating people like naughty children . I think it is easily forgotten just how good the vast majority of Albion fans behave , you only have to read our oppositions forums to see that they consider us a decent lot .
No, I don't.
Definitely box ticking, but also helps them justify any punishment……’we did warn you…..’
….the wrong people, mostly
clubs don't get fined for going down the aisle when we score and sitting in the wrong seats
You`ve just proved my point , you make your statement as fact and final , then declare "I want to be alone " , being "cool to each other" is not a problem it should be the norm . However being threatened with detention and extra homework is just OTT BS ...OK !No, I don't.
You've done the classic "oh when will it all end?!" thing when all that was asked was "hey, maybe be cool to each other".
The over-reaction is bonkers
But whatever, I'm done arguing the toss. Life is too short.
