[Albion] Pre match firework thingys

[el punal]

Life bans for those caught letting off smoke bombs,so football clubs start using smoke bombs to improve the atmosphere FFS could you make that shit up

Brilliant! You are now a fully paid up, lifetime member of the Bah! Humbug Club.

Waste of money, smoke hung around in West Upper which isn't good for air quality and it was very tin pot.

Let's leave Fireworks to Nov 5th!

Yep, I didn't much like that. Possibly not so clever if asthmatic?

 

[Rogero]

It woke me up !

You have to suspect it was rather less spectacular than Albion expected. Apart from filling the stadium with smoke, seemed pretty pointless. Good that the club tries new things from time to time though. Half the crowd need a rocket up the arse to create an atmosphere, rather than several rockets on the touchline.

 

[Motogull]

No comment because I would get another warning from the mods.

Just wait until the winter months we will be having the full light show combined with fireworks as we descend further into the entertainment world.

 

[Bod]

No pyro, no party

I thought it was a genius way of applying sunscreen to the fans in the east stand.

 

[wolfie]

Rather irresponsible, I thought, given all those parched fields you can see from ESU. How do they get away with all that watering of the pitch as well ?

Ahh what a surprise that yet again, when there is something different to just sitting on your seat and being a happy clappy fan ie a pyro show before the game, the usual wet wipes complain about it. What's so bad with it?!

Nothing wrong with it other than a total lack of consistency. Life bans if you're caught with pyro this season and posters everywhere at Old Trafford warning about the harmful effects of smoke and the fire risk. And then......welcome to the Amex

I love the flares! The more the better, particularly at away days.

Bring back Rocketman!

(tho he may need to upgrade the range of his weapon if he wants to fire one off from the treeline at Withdean)

Hypocrisy from the club I’m afraid. One of the reasons for banning flares / pyros is because of the safety issues for those with breathing problems. That was certainly the case yesterday - we were choking in the east stand and most of us in my area in east lower are on deaths door anyway without needing a helping hand from the club!

 

[horshamite]

Didn't get to my seat until after they'd gone off but yet to see a good photo of it.

How much money was spaffed on that ? Cut the crap like that and maybe we wouldn't need nonsense like paying £1.50 to print at home

It's now £2-50! How many printed at home tickets paid for the pyro show?

 

[Lethargic]

Awful, another Americanism of our once great game.

I wish someone would shove those fireworks where the sun don't shine.

Got on my lungs a bit and couldn't sing for the sting in my throat for a while. I hope Barber got a lungful of it.

 

[RandyWanger]

Tin pot. And when barbs sends us shitty emails about pyro and then sets them off choking out the whole east stand for 15 minutes it's ****ing hypocritical.

 

[Nobby Cybergoat]

Worth a try. But don't do it all the time. It would look better under lights on an evening game

 

[TugWilson]

Loud noisy smokey,things on fire and utterly tasteless,sorry but that sounds like selhurst not The Amex.
