The Safety of Fans in the North Stand

Personally I don't think the netting is fair to the 90% of decent travelling supporters, the target needs to be on the individuals & their clubs

Aye, so there should have been a net up today.

Amazing the club thinks smoke bombs are so dangerous they give a steward a fire proof glove to hold the bomb up for 5 mins (and do nowt with it) but don't see them as dangerous enough to stop them being launched off bairns heads.

They was a search policy in place today, so it either failed or folk were crafty with the way they smuggled stuff in.

The smoke bomb was bad but it’s a f***ing disgrace that glass bottles managed to get into the ground

Email I got said they had pyro dogs on the door and their fans were made to pour drinks into cups but he admitted that wasn't good enough.

Yeah was row behind me.
I cant see why "the club" are getting so much shit, if people are going to be dicks, they will be dicks.

Like blaming the police for every single crime that takes place.

After last time we played them, you would think there would have been a strong police presence up there and arrests made. Couldn't see as we are just to the left of the upper tier in the North West Corner, but I bet control was dependant on Stewards again and later arrests when camera footage is examined. This is not good planning if somebody has been hit by a coin or flare in the meantime.
To my mind prevention would be better than cure.
