    Hopefully @wetherbywhaler@wetherbywhaler can draw this matter to the attention of those in charge so they appreciate (if they aren’t already aware) the potential for damage, injury and loss support resulting from the actions of this person. As posted above, surely the area it came from can be figured out and possibly letters or emails sent to anyone holding season tickets asking for any observations they might have on it.

    I think it might be expensive, but for supporter safety and to avoid sanctions against the club we might need to employ dog handlers with dogs trained to sniff out flares. I have seen them used at Scunthorpe and Swindon in the past.

    A lack of engagement of the brain cell. Note the use of a singular description

    Hope the young girl is alright. We can not let these morons win, the clubs future is the young fans.
    Someone knows something and they should come forward, the sooner these idiots are banned the better for me.
    Make them go sit in the nearest police station on a match day

    I hope the person is caught and banned for life. I also hope the club reach out to the little girl who is too scared to go again invite her and her family to the next home game and give them the VIP treatment. She shouldn't miss out on a lifetime of memories and bonding with family and friends because of the idiotic act of 1 person.

    Surely everybody is now aware these morons will be at Hartlepool next week.
    Easy to identify them, a group of spotty yoofs, all arriving together just like at Barrow.
    Frisk the lot of 'em, anything dodgy, drugs, pyros, job done.

    I agree we have some idiots, we always have, going back to the 70s. however, toxic is a bit of an exaggeration at Valley Parade. There is a good family vibe overall

    Who ever you are you need serious medical help.
    These device's are intended to be used in a situation of distress eg out at sea or up a mountain not to cause it.
    What you did yesterday was inexcusable.
    If you have anything about you hand yourself in to the police and do us all a favour,never set foot back inside our stadium.
    Hope those affected by yesterday's proceedings are able to return to Valley Parade without fear and once again can get back to enjoying their afternoon in what should be a safe environment for all.

    Unfortunately in this day and age both him and his mates would think it was funny and obviously an acceptable thing to do, these morons make me apprehensive to attend away days but throwing a flare aimlessly into the lower kop is beyond belief needless to say I hope the culprit is found.

    Let's take a step back from it being a flare or smoke bomb and look at it from a stand point of, who in the right mind throws anything from the top tier of a stand into a stand full of families in the tier below whatever it is. Anything coming at you at that height has the potential to do serious damage if it were to hit someone on the head.

    These morons are hiding behind each other and people know who is doing it. Either point out the idiots who did it or ban the lot of them and then see how quickly they are to point out the culprits.

    That's precisely where I thought it came from too. Unfortunately, that doesn't necessarily mean that whoever threw it sits there but it might help those looking at CCTV.
