marcofisher Posted August 23, 2021 Report Share Posted August 23, 2021 Take this with a pinch of salt, I am sure there is far more to this rather than taking down his name and ejecting him without warning just for standing up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TonyTonyTony Posted August 23, 2021 Report Share Posted August 23, 2021 How many warnings did the fan receive before being ejected? If he ignored them and continued to stand then the club were within their rights to eject him from the ground. I agree with others there is more to the story. You don’t get banned for just standing up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leveller Posted August 23, 2021 Report Share Posted August 23, 2021 I'm sure there are dozens if not hundreds doing the same, so he probably went above and beyond this and escalated the situation? Have WBA banned loads, or just a couple? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Popodopolous Posted August 23, 2021 Report Share Posted August 23, 2021 Technically clubs would be within rights blah blah but it's a nonsense on the face of it. Was he stood up the back/in a place where a lot stand or the middle of the stand and the only one? Could also be a particularly pissy Safety Advisory Group giving the club some pressure about persistent standing etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcofisher Posted August 23, 2021 Report Share Posted August 23, 2021 I remember playing the first Fifa Street as a child and one of the songs I remember most distinctly from the soundtrack was Dizzee Rascal - Stand Up Tall, the main line of the chorus was "Pull up your socks and stand up tall". Does this mean if they release another Fifa Street this will be recommissioned as "Pull down your socks and don't stand up at all"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Popodopolous Posted August 23, 2021 Report Share Posted August 23, 2021 Should also add to my last post, wasn't there a post on here 2 years ago regarding letters about persistent standing at AG? I've read elsewhere that the Council and Bates tried to make Leeds fans sit down when he was there but gave up eventually- decent chunks of Elland Road seem to stand persistently or have been when I saw them on TV at this level in recent years. Wonder if there will be issues about it here this season? From late August 2019... https://www.bcfc.co.uk/news/statement-persistent-standing/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
