New ban on kids kickabouts after the game

[Working class pride]

@%1;

Worried a goal may be scored?

Spot on, the players would be shown up by a bunch of 10 year olds and that must be too much for Barber

In the concourses? Good. Sod off outside.

My boys are often having a kick about outside the North Stand whilst me and the other dads have a pint to let the train queue go down. Hope the ban is indeed just the concourses or else it is straight to the train queue for us! Can't expect kids to simply stand in the concourses watching their dads down a pint of Harveys!

So the club has banned kids kicking an empty bottle around the concourse? Fantastic. Good decision. Move on.

The ban extends to the outside areas and was enforced by a yellow jacketed hero on Saturday evening at about 5.30pm, when the greater Health & Safety risk was Ulloa's penalty re-entering the atmosphere.

I will be writing to Paul Barber and suggesting that in future the directive should be enacted with a degree of flexibility. i.e. no kickabouts inside but allowed outside once the main crowd has dispersed...

What are they going to do start banning them for daring to enjoy themselves

 

[surrey jim]

Outrage. Not renewing next year. Oscar out, Barber out, Bloom out, Poyet out.

I blame Thatcher

Would have though it was more like "we dare you to enjoy yourself"

It's a football club, not a frigging creche.

Dim. What have a few junior school children enjoying a kickabout outside after the match got to do with any sort of creche...?

 

[Deanbha]

Even dimmer. Outside is fine. Personally I don't want to enjoy a post game pint whilst there are loads of out of control sprogs kicking coke bottles about inside the concourses.

 

[albionsam]

Guess you havn't got kids mate . And probably not a wife . Banning kids playing ? Ban grumpy old gits

Nonsense. Dozens of kids kicking coke bottles about inside the concourses has no bearing on them becoming future supporters of The Albion.

What an idiotic comment. Because I don't want to have a pint whilst (probably) your kids are running amok I don't have a wife. What an idiot you are.

 

[The Stout Yeoman]

Thanks for that.

The best part of the day for a lot of kids - harmless fun for the children and now brainlessly taken away by a blanket ban on the grounds of Health and Safety...

I thought they wanted to encourage people to hang about around the stadium?

Yeah quite right ... ever stopped to consider that they have no consideration for those amongst our number who struggle to get around on walking sticks ....

They're kids thats what kids do . I cant walk past a bottle with out kicking it . Its the natural instinct of a football fan
