    Haha that time we started shouting at each other at Oldham and folk around thought we were gonna end up brawling lol. Always better when you meet folk face to face, I suspect some who are argumentative sods.online are nothing like that in real life.

    I'm assuming these aren't adults, surely no grown person gets excited by a bit of coloured smoke unless their IQ is lower than their shoe size.

    I would guess that last weeks backlash and media coverage made people think twice about pyros or flares today.
    One made an appearance at Barrow but last week probably went along way in having anyone try one today.

    I have to say, I think the stewards at Hartlepool today were great. Joking on the way in, not over aggressive, approachable and one even re-tied the flag down at the front that was coming loose.

    The seems to plan it to allow all the "yoof" to fill up one block and were clear from the off that seat numbers didn't matter. Which was good as about 90% of seats didn't have a number on.

    I saw the D in the username at the start of the other thread - for disability - we’ve seen it loads from Kitchen related stuff in the past and on City disabled team players posting on FB (many have it on their page etc) and was getting ready to tell people to calm down with their replies as it might not be as it seemed……. But the poster flipped the situation on its head by revealing they were in fact the victim of the hate and not the one with a problem.

    Either way, just goes to show, sometimes It pays to just take a step back at times. Not everyone can word everything eloquently and there’s sometimes more to stuff than meets the eye on forums!

    Plus some people generally struggle communicating online due to various disabilities and sometimes people should take that into account when reply to them

    What is it with these stupid gits? They need to grow up or pi$$ off. Someone is going to get badly hurt one of these days. Let’s hope they find the airhead who threw it today and ban him.

    Not only that but I saw a bunch of lads 3 rows from the front of the kop close to midland rd who sat there goading the newport fans all match. As though newport had some sort of following. They were smoking their vapes and calling their fans winkers all game. I dont get it. Watch the match FFS.

    Give them community service orders, working for nothing in a carwash for example.

    Chances are it was thrown by an under 18 year old - idiotic, dangerous and rightly condemned by all, but a lifetime ban? Are you seriously saying that a young lad that's done something really stupid should never be allowed to set foot in Valley Parade again? A 3 to 5 year ban is what I'd like to see and if the lad behaves himself in that time and shows some remorse for his behaviour then that should be the end of it. You can't demonise someone for the rest of their lives because of one ridiculously stupid mistake they made as a teenager.

    Ban them for a few seasons. Stupid idea to lob a smoke bomb into the lower kop area.

    The T&A is reporting that the police are involved with the enquires to find out who was involved in the throwing of the pyrotechnic on Saturday.

    The club in theory can ban the culprits from attending Bradford games, the police could issue a full banning order preventing the culprits from being anywhere near a football ground on matchday and have the ban across all football games in the UK.

    Any talk of Liverpool being hard hitting on Pyrotechnics is a bit of a joke, I've never seem as many let off in a stadium like Wembley as were let off for the FA Cup final. No better than the Millwall fans who ran all over the pitch.
