[Albion] Flasks banned from the Amex

[Hillian1]

Me neither.

Hooray for us.

That works..but your well prepared hooligan just needs a spare bottle top, some tissues or a bit of blu-tak......and hey presto you have your bottle for luzzing!

I don't think anyone goes to the Amex with the intention of chucking a bottle at someone. It's a heat of the moment thing that they might do if a player/ref/lino winds them up and is something they probably regret the moment it leaves their hand.

 

[nwgull]

Hooray for us.

Hooray indeed for not feeling the need to complain and moan about everything!

No no no, you see he's COVERED that here:

"Our job is to anticipate risks to the safety and security of our stadium, and the people within it, and then mitigate or eliminate those risks wherever it is practical to do so – not wait for an incident to occur before we take action".

See ? It's not about protecting us from something thats never happened before in the history of the world. It's all about anticipation of something happening..

If anything could be thrown and hurt but has never been thrown before? a bag of sweets from their candy counter? a shoe? bunch of keys? the list is endless

 

[Thunder Bolt]

I haven't been inconvenienced.

Me neither.

I hope that continues in life. Don't get an auto immune disease or get old.

Its the same every year. You get a batch of part-time minimum wage student newbies at the start of every season who have never worked the tills before, have never heard of Bovril, and can barely comprehend the concept of "rounding up". I once bought some stuff that came to £10.20, handed over a £20 note and said "do you want the 20p ?", only to be met with a stare so puzzled/blank you'd have thought I'd asked if I could molest his sister.

Just the nature of the industry I suppose, with the high turnover of part time staff. They don't improve much over the season either. It never improves, it never will.

That's not restricted to the Amex ..... this week I went to the local bakery and spent £1.71. I handed over £10.71 obviously expecting £9 back. I got a puzzled look from her and £9.08 change - I wouldn't mind but the till tells them what change to give

Nice to see weapons included in that list. I wasn't sure before.

To be fair, that confused me a bit

I'm still trying to define tools, perfumes and assholes

Then there's crutches allowed, have these guys not seen the Day of the Jackal?

 

[BLOCK F]

Ahh, the good old days at the Goldstone, the smell of cigar smoke from the West Stand , mingled with horse liniment from the dressing room, together with a faint whiff of stale piss and dodgy pies.
Loved it and loved the ability to take my flask of tea or coffee in during the colder months.

 

[Dave the OAP]

Never seen that at the Amex but I am old enough to remember a Brighton fan pouring the hot contents of his flask over the Millwall supporters who were below him in the standing part of the West at the Goldstone. They were already pretty nasty and I don't think it helped their disposition one little bit.

Yes I remember that

Don't forget the pungent smell of the match day program.

Didn't a NSC member angrily post a couple of years back that they turned up at The Amex with a tiny cabin case after coming straight from a business trip, only to be turned away by stewards?

 

[Green Cross Code Man]

Yes I remember that

Were you up in the West like me? I was only a kid, but things got very 'interesting' around that point!

So my new girlfriend will not be allowed in wearing her burka

She will explode with anger when I tell her!

Yes, my father and his mate threw a millwall fan back into their crowd when he climbed into the west stand and hit a woman sat next to me in the front row...it was like the film Zulu where these idiots were trying to get into the main stand.

Wasn't that also where two police dogs were kicked really badly by their fans?

No-one; they're not allowed!
