Yep a bit of football from Callum bringing the ball down controlling it for a great through ball for Cook to do what Cook does best.

Just listened to Nigel Adkins post match interview where he quotes Amari as a wing back.

 

I have to say Nigel Adkins sounds very unimpressive. He seems to be enjoying himself a lot, but seems a bit clueless.

 

Remember the culture when we were young??
Stood all match and crowds going mental.
People talk about the good old days of terraces etc yet want to deny the young supporters the feelings and togetherness that we felt back in 70s 80s and 90s.

 

So do Tranmere routinely lose 20 old seats...? Or are we actually responsible?

 

Surely they will have CCTV footage as they will know where the seats came from by looking at the number of them and the gaps left. Share those pictiures and they would have more luck catching those involved.

 

Yes I'm all for never seeing stuff we saw back in the 60s and 70s returning to modern day football, and certainly not damaging stadia. there is no place for it, do you seriously believe we want to deny the young supporters the feelings and togetherness whilst turning a blind eye to vandalism ?, and the effect that could have on our club and descent fans who want to enjoy traveling to away games denied that privilege because of some mindless thugs who for what ever reason feel they need to stand on seats then when broken them use them as some sort of trophy to wave in the air when Cook scores our second goal, sorry mate you usually post some quality stuff but I want nothing to do with these sort of fans, thankfully they got their pyros confiscated were told or they would have been setting them off at the game.

 

Does it even need CCTV? Presumably they know which seat numbers were damaged and can trace that back to tickets? Send the bill to the individuals, and failure to pay, maybe with a fine on top, ban them. There's just no need for this stuff. Feckless and feral morons.

 

If those who broke the seats were in their allocated spot as on their ticket I would be amazed.
This sort of behaviour mars the experience for others and is a major reason why I have stopped going to away matches now.

 

Unfortunately at most away games the home stewards do not implement reserved seating so that would not be a viable option, as I posted we got in at a reasonable time could see where we didn't want to sit many of these guys standing to the right of the goals so we sat as I've posted to the left of the goals nearer the left hand corner yet even being around 10 rows from the front many were standing why ?. I can understand further back allowing those who want to use their seat to sit down that right, I don't understand it for the life in me mate there must have been 20 rows behind to stand up in, no once did I see anyone steward from Tranmere attempt to get those in the lower rows to sit down so even trying to be selective of your seats can't be guaranteed no one will not be standing once the whistle went off for the start of the game.

 

You shouldn't ever have to make that call because of someone else's behaviour but I can certainly understand your point, at the Walsall game our fans were stood in the isles to the right of us obviously the fans sat on the end of the row could not see the action so had to also stand to see the game, there were seats available but not twos or three like they may have wanted, they were obviously fans who had left it until the last minute then expected to be sat together, Walsall officials must have thought the situation would be O/K if they put a steward with them to explain to those sitting they could not get seats, yet second half the majority found seats as there were only a dozen or so stood to our left near the stand boundary wall telling the police and senior stewards the situation was not acceptable or for that matter in accordance with stadium health and safety rules.

 

Let’s do it in the next few weeks. Shall I wear a white carnation so you can recognise me

 

Sadly, seems some tranmere (or maybe he supports someone else) are equally as stupid. This from FB.

 

Yeah, we're not the Jolly Boys outing.....away travel, few beers, talk crap, put a face to a username on here and makes it all human....

 

Atrocious....

Surely Walshy Boy can't be hard to trace and punished with hate crime, is it the new law? Didn't some Donny fan get done recently for similar with Hillsborough....

 

big lee (@walshyboy5) / X

Must be from Yeovil area as he copies in Yeovil Town on a lot of messages, let's get him sorted!!

I've emailed Yeovil Town and said if they know who he is to shop him in.....

If you're on the platform then please complain to the police and to X itself and get rid of the moron.

 

Was in row L Dave, left of the goal, next to the aisle. People stood in the aisle / stairs all the way up. Tranmere steward came had a look, a copper came, had a look, both walked away. First goal went in.....people fell down the stairs.....I kid you not....
