That would be great
, and as you know i very much appreciated it. But like i said i will be going and braving the piss, spit, bottles and coins if i got a ticket.

Sieving the lumpy bits out of the piss?
That's my thought.
"Dear (insert name of current deluded fool running Wednesday). You get 3,000 tickets, or you get fuck all. Choose, but make it quick, because we sure as hell can sell them. Lots of love, Kevin McCabe."
You shouldn't have to put up with anything thrown at you. It shouldn't happen, and if it happened to me then I'd get a proper strop on....... i will be going and braving the piss, spit, bottles and coins if i got a ticket.
its part and parcel of being an away fan, sometimes you take some shit, everyone knows it happens, not saying its right, but it happens, so people should stop crying about it and get on with it, feel that strongly? dont go, simple

So if certain fans had a habit of murdering people at their ground... if you turn up, you're asking for it?
I don't want BDTBL to get the reputation of being somewhere that isn't safe for away fans... this isn't the 70s any more and all fans should be safe inside a football ground. There is absolutely no place for it and absolutely no excuse for it... a complete act of cowardice.
Getting piss thrown on you is not "part and parcel" of being an away fan at the grounds I've been to recently. Or erm... ever.

If I ever get pelted with objects at an away ground I'm going to make a massive fuss. Straight to the nearest copper, and when home there would be a Times column condemning the actions. I would also be in touch with the officials at the club where it occurred.
Feel that strongly? Make a fuss and get the fuckers who do it nicked. There is simply no excuse. Part and parcel of being an away fan? Like being stabbed or beaten? Just because it happens why shouldn't we make a fuss? If enough people did then maybe it wouldn't happen any more.
Feel strongly about theft? Assault? GBH? Rape? Child abuse? Murder? It happens, stop crying about it? Where and when do you start to cry about it?
Yes, I do feel strongly about this. Having had all sorts of nasty stuff thrown at me away at Leeds many years ago I feel I can talk with some knowledge of this, and if it happened to me again I'd go ballistic, and make the mother of all fusses.

Nail on head. Away fan or not, no fan should have to go through that. It is just not normal.
And so are you for being a piggy. :hello:
iv had coins thrown at me when i went the the sty the other year. I haven't been demanding tickets been sent back and writing letters to wendy about it either. Wendy fans are fickle and love a moan.
It shouldn't happen but it does, same with the idiots who throw stuff on there own fans and look for fights. It comes with the game and wont go away no matter how much things are installed. Its good to see us trying to reduce the amount of things happening though.
3k and feck em! :thumbup:
Do you usually stand at the back or be seated at the back?
Iv been to plenty and seen water, beer and piss being chucked round. I got a full bottle of beer hit me when crowd surfing. glad it wasnt piss, but iv seen plenty been hit by piss bombs. RHCP and oasis concerts spring to mind recently.....

They should think themselve lucky!
Liverpool fans have been know to shit in plastic cups before lobbing it on Man yoo fans!
Seriously though I find it a funny wind up talking about bottles of piss and the like but the reality of it is just disgusting. Who goes to that trouble for such a pathetic act and risk being banned for 3 years.
On the ticket issue i'll add;
In the Premiership with high volume of Blades interest.
away teams allocation;
Man Utd - 3,000, Man City - 3,000, Liverpool - 3,000, Newcastle - 3,000, Arsenal - 3,000 Chelsea - 3,000, Tottenham - 3,000.
Their arrogance knows no bounds.
If you don't like it then yes, give us the fuckers back.

No matey, front every time, usually hanging over the barrier. Don't mind the water or beer, its that hot at the front (especially at the festivals) it's good to be cooled down.
Chucking piss about is fucking disgusting. End of.
It really is indefensible. If the Pigs were to do it to our fans, we'd be outraged - and quite rightly.
However, I fear that they have slightly overblown the issue to give them the moral high ground in the argument for whether or not they should have more tickets.
I'm sure a few will try to sneak in the home end, and then wonder why they get abused too... perhaps we should just give them the whole stadium?

and at the end of the next day
they ARE just using this argument, in a desperate attempt to get more tickets
well its just not going to work
half the fuckers crying about getting pissed on, wont have even been in the ground last time

Totally agree, and I've been to a hell of a lot more gigs than most on here. I've been to four Doningtons for a start (before it became Download, or Ozzfest, or Mingemunch, or whatever), more late 80's/early 90's thrash gigs than most on the planet, and I've never knowingly had a bottle of piss lobbed on me.
At any gig.
The thing is, at those sorts of gigs, nobody notices. When it's piled on you from above, it's a different matter.

In fairness, I'd overblow the issue if I'd turned up to watch a match (derby or not) and had a load of piss, shit and snot thrown on me. None of us have a story to say about this happening at Hellsbore, because we've never had their fans above us. The one time there was a 'split stand', I was on the lower tier with that lot, and our fans disgraced themselves by chucking various bodily fluids/excrement/effluence onto the fans below.
We could have done the same all through the 90's when we played them, and the early 'noughties', but we didn't. I'm not saying that we shouldn't get more Blades in, but if we're to do it, then it really must be properly done. It's not so long since that they only had the lower tier, yet the might of Hull and Barnsley had the whole away end.
Fair's fair.
Just like our big crowds against them in the early 90's. I remember having to buy a ticket for the Luton match after a certain glorious derby win over them (God(TM) bless Dane and Deane!) and then there being 13500 or so fewer turning up to watch a tough match v Villa not long afterwards.
Liverpool had the whole away end on every visit they've had. Man City have often had the whole away end. It seems that the arrogant wankers are Blades these days, and that dismays me.
Why don't we just have a 'home only' policy? See how far that would get us.
We've had a full away end and a big cordon of stewards before. Admittedly, they often seem to be like the Maginot Line, but the only segregation problem would be in the corner between the South Stand and the away end.
That said, from my (former) vantage point on the Kop, ferk all ever happened on the top tier.
And you'd love that to happen to us for every match we got at Newcastle, Liverpool, Manure, even Hull or Donny, wouldn't you?
In point of fact, we got the normal allocation for our match earlier this season (I don't want to think about it), and we have had the triangle, and even a bit of the North Stand (I'm sure we did the season I had to sit on the triangle) in the past.
That's what stewards and police are for though. I remember being at Port Vale about 15 years ago when 'temporary' measures were put up (my first experience of them). Not pleasant.
You need to grow up.
And we have none for the sty?
And people wonder why I've handed in my season ticket.
I can't say what you should do, but I wish you safety, and a damn good thrashing on the pitch.

The allocation is relevant to what United think they could sell and what the pigs can sell.
The Piss throwing is out of order and if it happens again (I hope it doesn't) then the person who does it should be locked up.
I personally think that coin throwing is far worse though due to the injuries that it can cause (Nott's Forest is the worst place I know for this).
and HappyHippy, if you've managed to go to that many concerts and not get hit by anything bottled or not you are a very lucky man as most people I know (Including myself) have been hit / covered by many different liquids while at gig's.

No, not at all. Having the away fans in the ground is part and parcel of the fun of the match. However, why should they be able to dictate to us how many tickets they have? Regardless of how many tickets they give us, it's OUR ground, not theirs, and they get what they're given.
There are two separate issues in this thread. The first - whether they should be given more tickets - is perhaps more subjective than the second, which is whether it is acceptable to throw anything at all, not just urine, at away fans.
I still think that if they want to send their allocation back, call their bluff. Let them do it. More tickets for us then. It'll serve them right for throwing their toys out of the pram.
Also, in response to the bit about it being overblown; I'm not saying that any individual who got hit by a piss rocket is overblowing it. As I've stated before, that's indefensible. However, the majority of fans did not get hit by urine, and I'm sure that many of them who are moaning about the allocation and using the pisslobbing as an argument are only doing so to bolster their claim that they should have more tickets.
to they guy that said we are arrogant, liverpool only got the upper tier becuase it was the first game in the premiership, and we didnt realise at this point that dispite larger premiership followings, and bigger grounds, everyone else always played the same game, 3000 tickets, thats your lot, now do one!

...for wit and sage wisdom
All this talk of piss bags! Where's SV, king of the piss-bag??
Had another browse on Owls Talk to see their latest views on the ticket situation. Some are suggesting that if the tickets aren't sent back, not to buy pies or drinks in the ground (would be damaging i know
). Linking this with the other thread about crap catering, maybe we should join our piggy friends in the boycott too? haha.

Once again, the main issue is not about our allocation (which may i add is pathetic) but if you can sell out with your fans and it is legal and correct, then fair enough. Im sure the majorty of teams would do this.
The issue is about safety. Anyone with half a braincell can see that it will be dangerous, and placing a few more cameras in the ground (more than likely on us) and having a few empty rows at the front isn't going to make any difference.
It's a load of TOSS

There's always one bloody supermodel sticking the boot in.
its not dangerous at all, there will be a big net over you to catch anything dangerous, and i bet that the net is pretty empty come the end of the game, then what will you cry about? im sure a few things were thrown last time, but im also sure that a lot of people jumped on the bandwagon, and infact were liars and were not hit by anything.

You really don't get it do you? What kinds of liquid do you think a net will catch? If all that comes down is piss then there won't be a lot in it, but the poor sods below will rightly be indignant.
And even if said net only contains one thing then that's enough to cry about and get the clown that threw it banned from the Lane. Not for a match, a month or a year. For ever.

Exactly mate, it's all well and good having a net there to catch bottles. But what about the pee inside.
Come on mate, please try and use that little bit of sense you have.
So its o.k to have pissed chucked at you at a gig cos you don't tend to notice it, but at a football match its a different matter? HOW? chucking piss is chucking piss. its nasty and people can catch aids. But hey, you dont feel it in a mosh pit so no complaints!
And your a very luck person never to have a splash off piss hit you at a gig.
If people fear for there safety they shouldn't go. If someone held a knife out at you wanting a fight, i'd highly doubt you'd go charging in, safety first. So to say that about handing your ticket in when all i was saying if they don't want to be spat or pissed on, didn't feel safe with it, they shouldn't go.
They're lucky to have a safety net - I don't remember there being that when there were all coins and bottles chucked during half time other year from their end into ours... there's a only a metal gate in the "back area" that separates the two fans
Don't be daft, Sam - Wednesday fans would never stoop so low. They're whiter than white.
Maybe we should give the pigs the BLUT, and if anything is thrown or anyone steps out of line ban the whole bucking funch of them from the lane...
