Kingswood Robin Posted March 31, 2015 Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 Did anyone else notice this against Barnsley. Two bolt fixings and one had come away leaving it dangling and swaying in the wind. I mentioned it to a steward but they didn't seem too interested. I would not want to be sat underneath that at the front of Dolman D. If you sit there, you might want to keep an eye on what's above you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dezgimed Posted March 31, 2015 Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 Noticed this for ages. Loads of them are wobbling about all over the place. Prob held on with screws about 20 years old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've also said that the best way to renew your ticket in online. #Dubious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BristolNorthEndRed Posted March 31, 2015 Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 Prior to kick off, to be on the safe side, I reported this to two different stewards, they both said the same, that the club were aware of it and that it would be safe.

Desso Posted March 31, 2015 Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 I reported it about 3 months ago to David Lloyd and the stadium manager, Dave Lewis. It was checked and I was told that although wobbling, it was perfectly safe. Lets hope they are right! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Red Hat Posted March 31, 2015 Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 I reported it before it was put up, they said it wasn't there, and it was safe. You were lucky etc etc....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If one were to fall and injure someone (or worse) the club/BS could be prosecuted and also individual staff, especially as this has been identified to the club on multiple occasions. For this reason I would suggest it is safe as I can't imagine the club and officials will want to face massive fines and potentially jail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drew Peacock Posted March 31, 2015 Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 We probably leave it loose so that if we have a few players out we can get the game postponed. Not that that plan always works, DOES IT LEYTON ORIENT? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Between heaven and hell Posted March 31, 2015 Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 Yes, I was at the Chelsea cup game too. What about coming out of Ninnian park a few years ago when they were mobbed up on the car park opposite, all sorts of masonry was flying into us that day! Always wondered what happened to the lad in front of me that took one straight in the face, not nice dirty welsh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhistleHappy Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 The club are reluctant to do anything just yet, they're waiting for the League Championship to be confirmed and are anticipating that announcement to go down well specially in the Dolman.

The club would hate to face fines or jail. But they are fine about someone being brained. Reminds me of employee relations in the Nike death factories of the far east.
