    I notice drug use is mentioned. Are the toilets at the back of the kop the goto place for various drugs?

    Don't know why the club mention stuff when they have no intention of doing anything about it

    Don't seem to have had any consequences from last seasons misbehaviour (notably Crewe) yet.
    Is this punishment still to come?

    Can’t recall the last time, if ever, I stuck my ear against a toilet cubicle. What an odd hobby;)?

    This shows how long it was take for the FA with cases. Carlisle were charged in June for an incident at our game on Boxing Day and the outcome has only just been announced today.

    Racist chanting and mocking tragedies will be punishable under the new rules.

    Fantastic news.

    Let's hope that's the last we hear of either.

    Surely racist chanting was against the previous rules?

    Totally agree. However I would think that it is more difficult to prove what someone is saying.

    The fact that smoke bombs/flares are still let off, that CCTV should be able to identify the culprits, that stewards are more able to see someone handling a device, yet few bans seem to be occurring, questions the ability of clubs to implement rules.

    STEVENAGE FC SANCTIONED FOR CROWD MISCONDUCT
    The document, attached to the above article, makes for interesting reading. Whilst the report deals with Stevenage's failings, there are references to the earlier pitch incursion by a City fan and that Stevenage had briefed their stewards about the anticipated behaviour of City fans. A few quotes from the report:
    • "In about the 35th minute of the match, a Bradford supporter entered the field of play from the spectators’ stand leading to his arrest and ejection from the stadium."
    • "In the 87th minute of the match, a Stevenage supporter ran on to the field of play from a location behind assistant referee 2 towards the middle of the pitch. That supporter ran towards the match referee but then ran past the referee towards the Bradford player Andy Cook and attempted to assault him."
    • "Subsequently, the offending supporter has been banned from attending at the Stevenage home stadium for a period of three years."
    • "The Commission was not supplied with any briefing document in relation to stewards and security staffing at the match that adequately sets out the approach to be adopted in case of a pitch incursion by spectators. Although the Stevenage “briefing” document16 before the Commission does state “Bradford will try and congregate behind goal, if not stewarded firmly they will then try and get onto the pitch. Know your Role and be vigilant”, there is no other mention of the possibility of a pitch incursion and no evidence that the stewarding staff did in fact have any or any proper understanding of their roles in relation to the risk of a pitch incursion."

    There is no excuse for either of those two instances, but maybe as a club we should have pointed out to the powers that be that right from the time of both sets of players were warming up Stevenage did all they could to disrupt the Bradford City players from doing something which was not only mentioned by many Bradford City fans at the game but also in Mark Hughes post match interview, it was pathetic what Stevenge tried to do that day, but we know (and maybe Hughes does now) Steve Evans would do anything he could to disrupt our normal preparations for that game.

    Plus it is pure speculation of course but what Stevenage players and manager did may well have influenced the fans, who knows but it certainly added to a drama filled game.

    Who ever the Stevenage fan was he must have been thick to make beeline for Andy Cook especially a minute after Cook had set Walker up for the winner **so funny**so funny.

    It seems we weren't charged so, on this occasion, there was nothing for us to point out. However, from the comments made in the report, it looks like our card has been marked.

    'Know your role and be vigilant'. The best of luck to the minimum wage waifs and strays who have to deal with hairy arse football supporters with very little in terms of support or training. In my time I've dealt with crowd situations and violent fracas, I'm an 18 stone bloke who can handle himself and I'd have to think twice about dealing with the situations some of these stewards are faced with.
