So basically, everyone made (and are still making) a massive fuss about nothing!
It's all pantomime isn't it, I'm surprised nobody shouted "he's behind you"
Now that is funny, Liz Costa in serial complaining shocker, who would have thought it eh?
"he's still doing it, he's still doing it"
Please tell me it wasn't you shouting that? I honestly wouldn't be able to look at myself in the mirror if I was crying to the stewards about a bloke blowing kisses. This is as bad as Liz Costa screaming when she saw Diouf touch his knob at Leeds IMHO, but at least she's an old biddy and it wasn't caught on camera, what excuse does this bloke have!?!?
That isn't my video, so it is not me
Thats one way of looking at it. But stewards are there to do a job. And they failed to do that job correctly. Had they done there job correctly, then the situation would have been defused. So, whilst I would personally split condemnation across three groups, if was too be weighted, I feel it should be weight it more towards the stewards than the Brighton fans. I wasn't much more than just banter, until the stewards went over the top physically with a Brighton fan for mooning. It was after that it started to get a little bit nasty. As before you say it, he was silly for mooning, but it was only in reaction to the constant homophobic abuse coming from a few Ipswich fans, which as I've said over and over again, the Stewards refused to act on, just speaking to them numerous times.
Can someone explain what actually happened that has led to 4 pages of this nonsense?
He's been identified by Sussex Police and now banned from the Amex, he won't get in if he turns up tonight.
Suffolk Police will be dealing with the Brighton fan who assaulted an Ipswich steward in the stairwell, he too has been identified by Sussex Police.
Sussex Police are in the process of identifying the oiks in the Argus photo and surrounding area from the ITFC CCTV footage; when they have done this then it will be referred to the BHA Security Officer to determine if and how long each will be banned from the Amex, buying away tkts etc.
Some of our idiotic fans showed up and tried to be Danny Dyer types (Football Factory....not Eastenders). Tried to get it blamed on the Ipswich fans when they werent really doing anything wrong. Also calling the stewards heavy-handed, but how else are you meant to act when you get assaulted ?
Basically, nothing serious.
Anyone that doesn't take a stand against homophobia from other supporters is a poof.
Banned for what? The video is on youtube for all to see, nothing actually happened
When living in Suffolk in the 70s/80s on the few times Brighton were at Portman Road there always seemed to be problems. Remember a Police Inspector telling me that Brighton Fans were not highly regarded as there was always a group who came looking for trouble. Seems nothing has changed.
