That Villa fan getting thrown out.

[usernameunknown]

Absolutely fucking disgraceful that unless we missed part of the incident on MOTD.

 

If he's done something else I take it back, but from that it looked like as the ball come into the crowd he headed it back but accidentally fell onto the side of the pitch and has been thrown out for coming over the barriers!

Some lad at Bolton got thrown out for bringing beer to where he was sitting - I assume this was an honest mistake but he got thrown out!

 

Another lad got arrested at the front but I'm not sure what for, it still required the presence of many police officers though.

[Randy Marsh]

That was a disgrace. Fuckin jobsworth stewards, absolutely pathetic. Probably be banned for 3 years now.

Football isn't for fans anymore. If they could find a way of generating revenue and atmosphere without us, then we would be out on our ears.

In fact if SKY doubled their sponsorship money then clubs wouldn't give a fuck whether we attended or not. We are just window dressing nowadays....an amorphous blob who occasionally serve a purpose.

Having said that I am hammered so I could be wrong.

I'd usually be up in arms over something like this but it's a Villa supporter and they deserve to be picked on.

 

Cunts to a man.

True, I hadn't considered that aspect of it. Good point, well made.

I seen the the way the police/stewards went over the top today. The lad who got threw out for talking his bevy in, only looked about 18. I think it was a genuine mistake.

Was the bevy having second thoughts then?

If you ever get thrown out of a football ground. Make sure they take your details off you. Because

 

1. CCTV is around

2. You can make a complaint and follow it up

3. Dunno

[Dan Vito Corleone]

Not seen it but if that's the only reason then it's just pathetic.

[Colonol]

About time they cracked down on this sort of thing. Clearly he has taken a dive on the pitch looking for a free or something and no player was near him.

I'll help you out with No 3

 

3. Request ALL CCTV footage of you on tape. They are legally obligated to supply it and have to block the faces of everyone else.

Bolton didn't want fans in there at all. 5 minutes after kick off there must of been atleast 200 fans outside the ticket office being told they couldn't buy tickets for the empty seats because they hadn't bought tickets off the club before and the club had no record of them, therefore they would rather have empty seats and turn people away dissapointed than take money and have happy fans.

 

Last year was a different story though. Bolton had representitives outside just after kick off handing out tickets for FREE just to get arses on plastic. Don't know what's changed.

Sounds like they didn't want away fans mixing with home fans.

We didn't try, we had families in bolton kits asking us if we could try and get tickets as they'd been told no.

That is the most concise assessment about the 'modern' game I've read anywhere. If drinking excessively is to blame then keep it up. (not to often though, such realism is only for them with a strong disposition)!

[Guest Pistonbroke]

Maybe he was pissed or using abusive language when the stewards approached him ? Can't see him being ejected for the incident alone.
