[Football] Flares and banger

[riverboy]

Don't waste time wondering....

You already know the answer to that question.

We if we get in Europe some of the brighton fans nay have a shock with away and flares

I see the Palace schoolboys still managed to smuggle in their flares and Bangor.
Poor old boys next to me jumped when they let that thing off woke them both up
Wonder if the stewards did anything

Not sure what the stewards could do apart from a mug of horlicks to help them back to sleep.

I fully anticipate that if we actually make it, we're nailed on to draw Aberdeen or The New Saints.

What's the collective noun for a group of Nigels?

A niggle ?

 

[Weststander]

They were so so quiet - totally outsang from start to finish

I loved it when we scored, their end completely static, no attempt to rouse the troops, not a peep for 20 minutes.

And they wet dream of being Napoli or Boca.

's.

"Flares and Banger" sounds like wonderful cabaret act.

It certainly does, although I thought at first it was a new concoction in the Piglets Pie range.

Didn't they have a lovely time though?

Didn't we have a lovely time when smuggling in a banger
A miserable day, police all the way and couldn't score a goal you know
Mocked on the way back, we still all wore black and we moaned about the weather
But nothing to fear as we'll miss it next year when Eagles go down

I find it somewhat amusing that @Bombardier was the first to like your post.

for my sins I’m an ex armourer. Flares and in particular flash bangs and bangers of that size are not toys. Its only a matter of time before someone loses fingers or a hand. f***ing stupid

Not in the champions league we won’t

Don’t the look so menacing

I wonder if black hats are compulsory - I remember reading the trip letter and uniform for Millwall - was def all black

 

[Motogull]

Pathetic and pointless.

Well I did get the impression there were a few to spare amongst Croydon's finest

Millwall and Us away are always black. IIRC Forest was Pastels and Bournemouth Paisley prints

What annoys me more than anything else about this is that prior to getting to my Upper East seat I was searched (pat down), then the magic wand whisked over me and finally asked to remove my hat. I carry a Lipsil which is about the size of a small flare, but never asked what it is. Does anyone carry an inhaler which is a lot larger and if so do you get asked what it is?

At away games it's just as bad. Leeds had 2 dogs checking everyone. So how did they manage to get these fireworks into the Amex?
Don't get me wrong, I'm all for security at any large event and the last thing we need is some idiot with a bomb. So if there are dogs looking for explosives, why did the dogs not find them?

I carry an inhaler in my coat pocket. Only twice during pat downs has it been questioned, and I’ve simply replied it’s my inhaler, but never been asked to prove / show it.

It reminded me of the Withdran days.
