I remember being in the Ponty sat near the back during the 2005/6 season and my mate went to get the half -time pies and Bovrils. When he came back he'd stacked the pies on top of the Bovril's. When he went to hand me my pie he lent forward with the Bovril and the red hot pie dropped onto a bloke on the row in front of us. Ruined his white Helly Hansen jacket. Luckily he wasn't seriously injured. The next week though my dad bought a Bovril, drank it and reckoned to trip up and drop his empty cup towards the bloke who got covered in pie the previous week. He wasn't amused.
come on lads get real, it all adds up to a better atmosphere with flares and smoke bombs, think they should extend it to thunder flashes
It's hardly a strongly worded condemnation from the Pompey Chief Executive. He seems at pains to stress that they don't make the rules, they have no option but to abide by them and there's nothing else they can do. A strange choice of words.
Yep I was at that game LR. Absolutely disgraceful. Some of our fans could have been seriously injured. Fortunately I was on hospitality in the Kippax. Never felt as queasy at a match ever than at that game. The rake on that Stand was unreal. Like being on Ripsaw at Alton Towers for ninety odd minutes. We had a hairy moment when we arrived at the ground. A rough looking dude signalled for us to go down a side street. There was a "Mr T " lookalike who then directed us into the grounds of what looked like a local authority building and relieved us of £10 for the pleasure of personally minding our car.
Nothing changes much. .some fool always throws something . In the 70s and days of Millmoor you ran the corridor of death on exiting.. Bradford you got pelted with half checkers (bricks) going in and coins and anything else that wasn't screwed down once you got in. I think it was Bradford where Clive Baker got hit with a brick whilst in goal.. Some years ago some idiot let off a flare killing someone at a game https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/uk-wa...om-wales-football-fan-john-hill-s-flare-death So so sad
