Now, this is what I have been told by Mrs DWG, who saw it on Facebook, whatever that is, so I’m just reporting what I have been told. I cannot see why it would be made up though.Saw a family last night 2 kids 1 in full Liverpool kit the other in full arsenal kit
Apparently a local woman took her twin 8 year old boys along yesterday As a birthday treat. One is an Albion fan, the other a Liverpool fan and they had shirts showing their affiliations. The steward seemingly stopped them from going in due the Liverpool shirted one. The woman said he’d take it off and even offered to go and buy him an Albion shirt to wear. Mr Steward, he say no as he now knows that one of the party (an 8 year old lad! ) is a Liverpool fan it may not be safe for him being amongst the thugs and nutters that populate the home stands (no idea which stand they were trying to access).
The woman had taken out ticket insurance and apparently has been told that this does not cover the situation described. Seems like all three ended up in tears and the lads’ birthdays were ruined.
As I say, this is something I have heard and if true, shows the club, by virtue of one steward though presumably backed by others, in a very poor light.
Hopefully, someone on Facebook will point her in PBOBEs direction and he can take steps.
