It won't stop because of a thread on an online forum. Nobody is saying it will. But we can promote common sense and decency which is all we ask. Sometimes it just takes education and peer pressure to remove such stuff - that's what we're offering here. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig 5,199 Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Fair enough. Ridiculous but true. True, but then FS will have been in the disabled section far, far more than you could ever have been. And his statement will also be true. Just because you haven't seen it doesn't mean it doesn't happen. I find the defence of smoke bombs, flares and pyro's ridiculous. They bring absolutely NOTHING to a game of football. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonzo79 13,752 Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 The girl who threw the flare at Falkirk got a banning order and was charged by the Police. Kids tend to be a bit more up for some dangerous antics - that's life. Football used to be a lot more dangerous 30 years ago. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
forlanssister 3,050 Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 The girl who threw the flare at Falkirk got a banning order and was charged by the Police. I know the girl got done for it but it was a boy who threw the flare at Falkirk. Kids tend to be a bit more up for some dangerous antics - that's life. Football used to be a lot more dangerous 30 years ago. Ah yes back in the days before stadiums were all seated eh? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig 5,199 Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 (edited) The girl who threw the flare at Falkirk got a banning order and was charged by the Police. Kids tend to be a bit more up for some dangerous antics - that's life. Football used to be a lot more dangerous 30 years ago. So because it was dangerous then it is ok to be dangerous now ? Because it was legal to have segregation 50 years ago it is ok to have segregation now ? The world has evolved, you might want to try evolving with it.

Ah yes back in the days before stadiums were all seated eh? I realise we live in a H&S oriented society nowadays but signs suggest football fans are getting sick and tired of paying a lot of money and being treated like sh*t and this sort of thing (pyro, violence etc) is becoming more popular. A compromise will have to be met to some extent otherwise we'll just have reasonably well-off, well-behaved and quiet stadiums with virtually no atmosphere (like Arsenal). 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo79 13,752 Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 I don't need to evolve, fs. I have never taken pyro to a football match or assaulted anyone. I have been assaulted by opposition fans but I that won't make me stop going to support my team. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
