It isn't a serious warning to all Brighton fans since it isn't a warning to me. I have no intention of throwing a flare, a coin or even a paper cup.

We all know that the only thing you throw is a hissy fit............

I hate flares at football, and I don't want to be stuck in a stand when some stupid prat is careless with one and something like what happened at Bradford happens.
I know it wasn't a flare that started it, but try arguing that it couldn't happen.

Errrrrrrrrrr because the stands are no longer made of wood.

FFS, why dont you swallow your pride and admit he is right.
He is a steward at St Marys (I believe) and the rules have been relayed to him by the FA and his club. He has told you what is going to happen, based on our 5% moronic following, especially after the two recent cases against Peterborough and Woking.
Perhaps this is partly the reason that FCUM have only been issued with 845 tickets after their invasion against Rochdale and their reputation.
If it kicks off on Tuesday, then look forward to us only getting a piss poor allocation,even if its a Premier club in the next round, if we beat FCUM.
I was bought up in the North Stand in the 70's and in those days you could get away with it, times have changed.

Going with the allocation point,did those who watched the manc derby the other week hear the comentator point out that United's away allocation had been dropped because of their pesistant disregarding of the standing rule.

Wolves are considering abandoning their plan to redevelop Molinuex because they have been threatened with a reduced capacity (because of persistent standing). If their capacity is reduced, there is no point in spending millions on 3 bigger stands.

That, my friends, is a fact.

Anyway, back to the point of the thread. Now that we have been warned, anyone that bring flares is, in my opinion, an idiot. Not because flares are dangerous, but because they are risking having our away allocations reduced. Forget everything else, I've often thought we have the best away fans in the league, but we won't be as good if we have less seats to fill.

Really? When will the Kop capacity be cut in half for constant standing. But either way, the point is the same, clubs should understand that whilst I am not a teenager anymore and I wi sit down many kids want to do what I did when I was a kid and stand / sing. One size does not fit all and bullying will not be well received. Why not just work with the customers and make it work for everyone instead of being officious.

According to the local rag in these parts (I live down the road from Molineux), they are seriously considering this. One thing we do have to bear in mind is that the safety certificate is issued by local authorities, so what may be acceptable in Liverpool may not be acceptable in Wolverhampton (and definitely won't be acceptable in Southampton!).

Fair comment and the minority may well ruin it for the majority.

Didn't we get a warning over standing at away games at Derby a few years back ?

Under your skin.
How about - Designated flare people. Surely if people who were approved by the F.A and the Club then it would cut down the danger :shrug:

Don't be a complete and utter **** all your life.

Withdean is shit because it is a soulless pile of sh1te where no atmosphere can be generated.

If I sit behind you I will eat you alive.
