Preston’s Pyro

[Trigger Blade]

I’d forgotten about this until just now and haven’t seen it mentioned. When Proud Preston equalised, a really feeble flare was thrown onto the area just behind the touch line at the BL end, right hand side of Wes’s goal. The ref spotted it and delayed the kick off until the stadium was safe again.

Nobody appeared to deal with it until it had completely fizzled out, at which point, a steward in a hi-viz jacket with the word FIRE on the back, mask in one hand and a litter picker in the other, climbed over the hoardings, picked it up, put it in a bucket and walked off with it, tragedy averted. He had a mate for back up, similarly hi-vizzed up and equally slow to react..

The same day, Trig Jnr (TE) was at Toronto FC, where they had a firework display as part of the pre-match build up, during which the smoke drifted into the stand, set the fire alarms off and delayed the kick off by 30 minutes. SAG would have Bramall Lane closed in perpetuity for such a thing

Whilst acknowledging its not for everyone and it can affect some people's conditions, our approach to a single smoke bomb is laughable.

Compare that on Saturday to the Auld Firm semi final at Hampden which was clearly choreographed beforehand.

 

[Ainsley Harriott]

Fire warden who didn't deal with a lickle ickle flare.... Awww diddums.

Why not approach it from the end where the smoke isn't blowing, use the litter picker and drop it in that ickle bucket of sand?

All the while, any asthmatics have to breathe in the potentially dangerous fuckin smoke the trusted fire warden is supposed to deal with. Soft cunt.

There were pyro galore at Celtic rangers yesterday. You have to wonder how soft our society has become when fire wardens won't deal with a single fuckin smoke flare. God help him in a fire.

 

[Katzenjammer]

Smoke cannisters are all well and good, but nautical flares are the real pyro shit.

God forbid English stadia ever demonstrate such a spectacle however, not with the plethora of curtain twitching cunts in the stands, the soulless fucking ghouls at the council and the high-vis Gestapo bellends ready to throw you out if you so much as fart without the necessary documentation.

Anyway, here's a bit of real terrace culture for anybody who's not an uptight modern-football wankstain to enjoy.

 

[RammyBlade]

For me as an asthma sufferer flare smoke is quite dangerous so I absolutely hate them !!

Tell him to get himself down to Mill Street Brewery for a few beers, one of my "go to" places, when in Toronto (the home of "Canada Blade", for anyone who remembers him from the old Sheffield Forum days).

It was a smoke bomb.

 

[Nightsweats]

Totally agree with OP and others. sat and watched the pathetic lack of dealing with nothing till nothing became minus nothing and the 2 sad cowards who approached the nothing dealt with nothing. We live in a world where pathetic nobodies determine everything.

 

[BettingBlade]

Looked as though keith lard was waiting for it to go out before he picked it up. Not sure whey they couldnt just put it in a bucket while it was still going.

Because they're fuckin soft cunt cuckold pussy holes that's why.

My kids have asthma. But genuinely, is this just an English condition? Does anyone in that PAOK stadium have asthma ya reckon? Anyone at the Celtic game yesterday? Anyone in rangers end? The 'fog' from it was awful. This was the Celtic end...


We can't say that nobody in that end doesn't have asthma? As I say, my kids have asthma so I'm not rubbishing it. But you see pyro everywhere in Europe. Except here.

Seems odd that's all.

 

[Nesh Blade]

To be fair our main fire marshal is quite an old bloke, looks more like TCs age than someone who should be able to quickly deal with a situation. Find him a desk role or stick with his other part time job of flogging programmes at the women’s games, or just let him retire ffs

I think Britain does have high asthma rates, but obviously that doesn't explain the Old Firm stuff.

 

[CrookesBlade]

Confused. Are we unhappy that he was too slow to deal with it or that everyone isn’t allowed to take flares in?

 

[metalblade]

The problem with smoke bombs is when idiots set them off in confined spaces like concourses, in the stands the smoke doesn't hang about too long except in the roof. The other problem is fear of being caught causes people to throw them anywhere which can mean they land on someone. Did any of the smoke bombs on the kop cause any issues in the last two games? NO.
Much more dangerous are the fireworks that explode like the one on the pitch at the WBA game you wouldn't want one of them going off at the side of your face they should be banned.

Did someone say pyro ? I give you Pyro shithousing.

It landed on the pitch, quite near Wez. He kicked it off the pitch and I think the ref ‘had a word’ with him for doing so.

 

[Boxer Blade]

Its part of the reason why we had seven minutes Extra time which when it was announced seemed odd.

 

[Maidenhead]

I agree.

Completely fucks up my breathing.

Because fireman Sam is scared of a smoke cannister that doesn't get hot. That's why some people hold them until they burn out, because they're not hot. Plus, while the incompetent melt does nowt, we get more smoke potentially harming asthma sufferers, potentially my own kids should I wish to take them. I'd have him on some charges for it to learn his lesson. If any charges exist of course.

Fuckin gimp should have either splashed it with water or litter picked it into his sand. Wet cunt. God help if the fryers caught alight. Stadium would be razed to the ground while the geriatric fuck was waiting for it to go out

I only said it's where the extra seven minutes came from

 

[Arcott]

Probably under instruction not to touch it before going out. Then there is no possibility of compensation claim in our new 'where there's blame there's a claim' wet woke pathetic sad individual culture. Fuck those with breathing difficulties make sure there is no possibility of being sued for £10m due to being a fucktard who can't use a grabber to put a little burney thing on a bucket of sand. You shouldn't be able to claim anything just because you're an incompetent fuckwit.
Rant over.

[Valleyblade]
