Judda Posted February 3, 2019 Report Share Posted February 3, 2019 I didn't manage to get her name but just wanted to say thank you to a very kind steward. My daughter who suffers with anxiety had a huge panic attack after seeing the idiots starting on each other in the corner of the Dolman where we sit. She's a massive City fan and 3 years of season tickets and she now feels "a bit put off going to city" Anyway. Lovely lady steward saw us leaving mid 1st half and offered us the option to move seats to the family stand... she was very sweet and understanding. I wish I got her name as I'd like to give her an official thank you through the Club in some way. Hopefully my daughter will be back for the next game now....

formerly known as ivan Posted February 3, 2019 Report Share Posted February 3, 2019 No no no! The steward was not helping you by any means as they don’t do that! She clearly identified your daughter as a trouble maker and wanted to move her out of the area before she kicked off! In all seriousness, that is great to here. Stewards get slated at times and yes some can be on a bit of a power trip, but equally some do a cracking job and deserve to be recognised for it. Hope your daughter enjoyed the rest of the game!

BCFC1512 Posted February 3, 2019 Report Share Posted February 3, 2019 Tbh I always go in family stand when I take my boys. Although the 7 year old is bugging me to take him in singing section :laugh:. always plenty of room up there and decent entertainment at HT and pre match under the stand.

Judda Posted February 3, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2019 Thing is I've always sat in the Dolman. 20 years of season tickets. Don't feel I need to move... probably only been like that about 5 times in all that time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrumpylegs Posted February 3, 2019 Report Share Posted February 3, 2019 I bet that a lot of parents were trying (and probably failing) to explain what was going on in that corner to their kids - who were utterly confused by those scenes!! They've grown up in a world where football grounds are a safe (and fun) environment. Truly cringeworthy behaviour (on both sides). Hope that those morons involved are banned and in the longer term get the 'help' that they clearly need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did say that I actually felt safer because she was there and groups of blokes don't start on 11 year old girls, just other groups of blokes. She was still terrified though...
