Funny thing is I rememver building and burning some huge ' bommies ' when I was a kid, and the tyre smoke was horrendous, still not dead though

Waste paper

well well I'm so sorry Fred for having some sense actually I'm very proud of posting this it has been a very productive post,but in future I'll not bother and let the lunatics take over the Asylum shall I,a little bit surprised at you Fred

Keith Lard.

Is the LSV completely non smoking? The Etihad is supposed to be, but they now seem to turn a blind eye to smoking on the spirals at HT......People were getting banned for it before. They still ban fans for smoking in the bogs though....

i was talking to the steward, the idiot was bein watched via cctv and was to be dealt with when the crowds had dispersed, they wasnt doing' nothing about it as such

I`m sure if you was in a confined area with burning "waste paper" you would have have a different outlook on "smoke inhalation".

A confined area in the north stand at the LSV?



I fully understand the potential for danger to health from fire, I used to be the ' fire officer ' in a death trap of a sewing factory, I used to test the alarm every monday at 8.30 , then one day the alarm went off, did they evacuate the premises?

No, they all just looked at each other and said, is that the alarm going off? , until I personally went through the whole place and told them to get out, they didnt budge

I fully understand

Is n`t a toilet cubicle a small enclosed area? ,irrespective of it being in the LSV or a sewing factory?.

Pointless thread. Nobody made a big deal about this. Maybe next time before publishing it were everyone can see it, email the club and let them take action . The clubs name is the last thing that needs damaging. The text idea is great btw.

Totally agree - let's get a bit of perspective! Anyone remember the State of Origin game where hundreds of Queenslanders were hurling pints of lager onto the field when their King Wally was penalised? Did the Aussies start crying and whinging? No, the NSW Players lobbed them back into the crowd and the game carried on!

So we aren't an open and honest club?

Let's pretend it didn't happen then.

Well said Glow.

No one is pretending it didn't happen - just don't know why anyone is whinging and crying over such a non-event. If one or 2 nobheads want to make a t!t of themselves then let the authorities deal with them - or not! No one died!



...and as for a text number to report people to stewards - wtf!!!

Really is some shallow people who post on this forum, have you got anything better to do than slate stewards for a PLASTIC bottle being thrown. My uncle was the supervisor in the north stand and he had it flagged up to be checked on CCTV. They didnt just ignore the issue so get a grip and stop being so pathetic

I agree, just because the ‘idiot’ wasn’t thrown out there and then it doesn’t mean that the stewards/club aren’t actually reviewing the incident. Why not let the club deal with the incident than having a pop at the stewards.
The stewards do take some poop, one positive – they helped me with the flags again. Top blokes on the north stand

Well I think throwing bottles on the pitch would be dangerous' and silly and criminal if it was glass. I also think throwing a plastic bottle on the pitch is silly but the idea that if it would have hurt anyone had it hit them I don't think so.

Lets get things in perspective. Isn't it time to drop this discussion ? It is not getting us anywhere.

depending if the bottle was full. thats why pint pots are a better idea. I do agree, let the club sort it

For me a simple solution is if you dont like the prices , dont buy the drinks

or cut down on them , when i buy Frank a drink , he only gets a HALF

Not to sure who you’re addressing that to, but if you mean me, I will say what I think be it good or bad, regardless of how shallow you think I am. I have defended stewards/LSV in the past, but IMO this one they got wrong, Once the first bottle had been thrown they should have been ready for any repeat offenders, the second guy could have easily been kicked out if they’d have acted immediately. They’d have probably got a round of applause rather than the offender getting booed.

I think there's a bit of a balance to be drawn from this thread - the bottle throwing incident is inexcusable, regardless of whether it's plastic, it's empty etc etc, it shouldn't happen simple as that. However, the club and the LSV are clearly working together with the CCTV and stewards to identify the culprit and hopefully take further action against them and then the whole situation will be sorted using the resources available and without brushing it under the carpet.

Just feel its a problem that has only occured this once therefore not a majour issue, if it happens again then maybe make a thread about it and have a rant but to be honest its seems people are making a big deal over this issue which isnt really that much of a problem

If Id have seen them threw it I would have gone over and told them, I was going to report them to a steward and then I WOULD HAVE DONE SO, we can do with out idiots

Spot on.

as I was the poster who started this thread I assume that you are referring to me when you say "really is some shallow people who post on this forum" so I make two points to you
(1)-I think it is a major issue when spectators start throwing things on to the pitch,whether they are plastic bottles, Glass bottles or lumps of iron,it is inexcusable and should have been dealt with better than it was,
(2) you should have wrote "really are" and not "really is". but either way I think I was in the right and actually I am thinking of writing about this incident to the rugby League weekly.

ultimate keyboard warrior championships start next week, you may want to enter at [urlhttp://www.ilovetomoan.com[/url
writing to the league express is really going to help the club out ... nice one

What good would it do the club if you did this?
Would you not be better writing to the LSV, or stadium safety officer?

I agree its a serious matter but I wouldn't want the club getting a big fine, what we can't afford to pay because you wrote and the RFL became aware of it.
Let the club deal with it.
