Trouble, Stewards and crowd control

It's not. There was a United fan pinned down in the technical area.
There was pushing shoving and grappling before he was eventually pinned down and led out by stewards.
Fair enough! Must have missed that! The coach was the only I saw running that way and thought folk must have got confused. It turns out it was me who was wrong 😆
 
What happened after their third in the technical area? It looked from the Westfield as though one of our brain dead idiots went for their bench? Hope he's happy with the inevitable stadium ban coming his way...could also lead to yet another fine!

Stewards appeared to completely lose control of the away end last night and it could have turned nasty, no doubt though there was some fisticuffs outside afterwards...

I did laugh though when one Blade ran out of H block, Stewards didn't see him and he could have had a clean run at Leeds.....only for him to realise this, check his run and "accidently" bump into the nearest steward so he could be grabbed as he bounced about a bit....:rolleyes: 🤣
Leeds need fining for their subs running on pitch when they scored and then when we were trying to take kick off
 
Was hoping the injured Ampadu would trip up with his sprint down past SS.

Shame he didn't play as he's shite and was so for us.

*edit. Just seen he needs knee surgery.
 

Our own subs warm up on the edge of the pitch every match. I've been sitting in the area at the front of the south stand near the away fans recently due to having had an operation, and been surprised that the referee lets our subs on the pitch to warm up. They run off the pitch when the ball comes near them.
 
Should put a big cage at front of the away end and minimise the amount of entrances/exits in to the away end. Simple.
Back in 2005 I was in Sicily with a group of friends who went to see Messina v Inter Milan. The Inter Milan fans were in a small section behind the goal - they were completely enclosed by nets - in front, to the side and even above them. It didn't stop them racially abusing a Messina player who attempted to walk off (visibly very upset) thus delaying the game for several minutes

My experience of spending time in Italy with a bunch of black people was lots of very open racism. Ironically, we were there with Football Unites Racism Divides with a team of predominantly Somalian players. Away from the tournament there were some repulsive experiences. It isn’t a country I admire.

The southern European countries are not good for racism. Spain is equally bad.

Sadly that chimes with my experiences of spending work time with Italian colleagues in Genoa.
Absolutely wonderful people, football crazy, love their food and fam. Then the question of race is discussed.
They look at you like you're not the enlightened one in the room. Tough gig.

One of our party is Indian (very Anglicised) and I've never been aware of racism towards him. We've spent time in Naples, Rome, Milan, Sienna and Sicily but have to say I've never been looking for it.
 
That's possibly one of the reasons that refugees try to get beyond Southern Europe before trying to claim Asylum. Doubtless there is racism in this country but I don't think it's so blatant.
I suspect that history and proximity doesn't help. Illegal immigrants travel through those countries from Africa.
 
Are they also going to investigate why the Leeds players were off the pitch and also what the leeds fans were doing. That's not to condone the Sheff U idiot but Leeds players off the pitch must take a large portion of blame - or are the stewards supposed to hold them back as well?

Leeds fans are as Amazing as the team, their support was immense the other night.
 
Knew this was coming. You watch…..We’ll get another fine & SAG will place further crowd restrictions on us.
 
Leeds fans invented the trend of "limbs" in the away end with the way they celebrate goals.

It seems their players and staff have bought into this feral way of celebrating.
I think about 15 of their players were behind the hoardings and hugging fans after the 3rd. How come players aren't booked for going past the hoardings anymore? It was a bookable offence for inciting potential trouble and causing injuries due to the surge

Also... Leeds are twats!
I agree with all of this but had to read it about 3 times because I kept looking at your aviator. Cheese n rice Mary & Joseph.
