REDOXO Posted October 14, 2016 Report Share Posted October 14, 2016 This is the first game after we lost possibly our best player of all time. I would encourage everyone to be loud and get the surfer flag out, however it is not the best night to let off smoke bombs and partake in anything that will not put our club in the best possible light live on Global tv, just a though!

Because they look good and boost the atmosphere. After we score at an away game and one gets let off it definitely heightens the atmosphere even more.

But I much rather watch football for the next three years and not have a criminal record than set one off and be stood in a smelly smoky atmosphere for five minutes but each to his own Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The vape bomb idea is actually a good one, I've wondered before if that's feasible. Maybe we could crowdfund some prototypes here on otib! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Main reason though is the legality. I've come to the conclusion that English people are p*ssies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Simpson Posted October 14, 2016 Report Share Posted October 14, 2016 Sorry getting ready for the game so don't have time to read through the thread, just the title. So in answer to the appeal I have collected quite a few, where is the collection point. I may or may not be in Cardiff if that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly a better atmosphere booster than mass twirling of scarves or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a video a couple of weeks ago from the Fulham game by someone who was stood exactly where one of the canisters ended up and all the people in the area could be heard complaining about it.

Lanterne Rouge Posted October 15, 2016 Report Share Posted October 15, 2016 Don`t like them and can`t see the attraction TBH. I remember some ******** throwing one on to the pitch when we had our Division 1 promotion celebrations straight into a crowd of people and it hit some girl on the head. What a tool.

I can say it doesn't because for me it's utter crap, a bit of smoke floating around the away end at Fulham didn't IMO enhance the atmosphere, the constant singing/chanting was what made the atmosphere there and would have been equally as good without the bit of smoke that drifted around for a bit.

There were also quite a few kids in the area where it landed. What was the point of having 'Pyro Dogs' sniffing everyone on the way in if they don't do their job? It happened last season too.
