WhistleHappy Posted February 25, 2019 Report Share Posted February 25, 2019 Bristol Rovers should get a similar warning..... (although to be fair, their recent managers haven't had much choice given the poor quality of playing squads available to them... they've had to chuck loads of shit onto the pitch) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abraham Romanovich Posted February 25, 2019 Report Share Posted February 25, 2019 It says "As a result, all bottled drinks at the St. Andrew's Trillion Trophy Stadium are to be decanted into paper cups, until further notice." Hadn't realised sherry and port was so popular in the Midlands . Still you live and learn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Popodopolous Posted February 25, 2019 Report Share Posted February 25, 2019 There is a lesson in here. Given the small return of usage of pyros in recent weeks, expect a bit of monitoring by powers that be. Radio Bristol mentioned one yesterday and at Blackburn- last thing we want with things going so well on the pitch- and I'm not necessarily anti pyro save for the fact it's illegal- is scrutiny from FA, SAG, EFL etc. As an aside, not that I condone it but I am assuming the object throwing in this instance is linked to them kicking off at the EFL, the hearing- possible 12-15 point deduction etc. However there are ways to protest and this feels counterproductive on their part.

Some dolt let one off at full time at Norwich, I usually love pyros but letting one off after we've just lost arguably our biggest game of the season? Hope it was worth it for the three year ban the bloke will receive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they can add to the atmosphere if in the hands of the right people- that though is a key caveat... Anyway it isn't yet such a big problem as last season not least because none have been at AG but it'll get us a bit of scrutiny of the wrong kind if it continues- that's 2 in 2 away games I believe or 2 in 4 games overall.

italian dave Posted February 27, 2019 Report Share Posted February 27, 2019 Watched the Sky Sports highlights from last night and there's clearly something (golf ball?) thrown at the B'ham players from our fans when they get their first goal. Their 7 (I think) also made a point of picking up something thrown at him when he was taking a throw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Popodopolous Posted February 27, 2019 Report Share Posted February 27, 2019 Read this and it jogged my memory, there was blue smoke emanating from the Atyeo when they scored their 2nd- pyro, smoke bomb, canister- something similar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The stuff that was let off last season then- in the 3 games early on (Barnsley at home, Birmingham and Brentford), plus in December Middlesbrough game were they all smoke canisters then or pyros? Was there one v Man United too, honestly can't remember. From a layman's perspective, smoke canisters seem less dangerous/risky than flares, but then they all get lumped in under pyros don't they?

JulieH Posted February 27, 2019 Report Share Posted February 27, 2019 2 Bristol city fans identified from cctv and detained by stewards and police last night before the end of the game. Both were captured on club cctv throwing items onto the pitch from the south stand . There was one smoke grenade set off by Birmingham fans but unfortunately at this stage no one identified.
