Italian Lambretta Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 While we are on the subject of throwing stuff yesterday the young lads/girls in upper section n thought it was great to lob their Juice, Coffee, Bovril and most likely their beer down into the lower section when we scored.

Big Drew Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 2 hours ago, Stupid Sexy Flanders said: The answer is simple, and I'm not sure why it doesn't seem to really happen, there's probably some reason I'm not aware of, but surely we just need to have all areas covered by cctv and identify/charge the culprits. We shouldn't be punishing whole clubs and innocent people for the sake of a few utter arseholes. THIS in spadeloads. What's the point in having a Police control tower that either doesn't identify, or have the proper eqiupment to identify all these imbeciles? It would be worth it to identify this pondlife and give them massive fines, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Idle Talk Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 Throwing pyro on to the pitch is no better. The solution to this problem is not to pull up the drawbridge and ruin the atmosphere at the Derby matches. The solution is to be much more aggressive about identifying who the individuals are who are throwing things on to the pitch and punishing them accordingly.

Almost silence on this in the media but if it was the other way round we'd get hammered for it. They've been getting away with it for years yet nothing happens. I wonder why?

Daktari Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 1 hour ago, jambo19 said: Problem being there seemed to be none in the ground or willing to take action against a blatant offence. He's out the stand and on the park so if he's lifted surely no complaints. I don't actually know how many police are inside the stadiums these days, but it will be less than it used to be. Simple fact is that stewards are cheaper and as someone says, the clubs pay for what's on the terracing/inside the ground. You can get a lot more stewards for the price of a cop and comply with the safety requirements. The problem then becomes that stewards with no personal safety equipment or training to manhandle people are left to 'manage' the problem. When someone who's getting paid about a penny more than a lightbulb looks at getting in amongst that, can you blame them for looking away? I know there's a point of principle here, but I wouldn't have their job. Also, in some ways although all seated stadia have made it easier to identify culprits, it's actually quite risky getting along along a row to lift them. It's an inherently imbalanced position to be in and it just takes a push for someone to go over quite a distance and then also land on spectators below. Approved way to do it would be half a dozen people (either cops or stewards) in the row above and another half dozen in the row where the offender is to pull them out and give protection. It's a long thin line though so if the target goes fighting it all gets very messy very quickly and inevitably there's danger for the spectators in the vicinity, innocent or not. The boy going on the park though, should have been ejected. The stewards have the right under the ground rules but no legal standing or authority to back it up. Resisting a cop is a separate offence, resisting the stewards just compounds the original contravention of the ground regulations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s every derby, it’s constantly highlighted & nothing is done about it, we know it comes from their “block seven” gimps because it’s the same part of the ground at ER every time. If they won’t stop then cut them to one upper tier section & ban all those associated with that group from the stadium. Yup, close the lower section and start using some sort of netting to protect our players. Its ridiculous and like you say, its beyond a joke because this is not an isolated incident.

Highlighted after Shanks celebrates the first goal, one thrown just as Shanks dispatches the penalty and when the players celebrate at the Wheatfield Stand. I know Hearts fans were not angels in the past so there maybe a sprinkling of hypocrisy with my post but the current consistency with the Hibs lot throwing objects at opposition players is getting beyond a joke, numerous investigations claimed after incidents highlighted but no outcome from the authorities. Time to cut their allocation and accommodate our own ??? IMAGE courtesy of Malcolm Mackenzie @hmfcalum Got hit in the head by one last time we were at Easter rd.

Spellczech Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 Vaping always reminds me of that HEBS anti-smoking cartoon advert from the 80s or 90s about people sucking on blue sticks...Just seems utterly pointless and looks stupid. At least smoking had a certain coolness cachet due to it being done in the movies - never yet see anyone vaping in a movie! Haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

queensferryjambo Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 I haven't read the whole thread so apologies in advance if discussed. In the first half Ginnelly was running down towards the box in a great position and it looked like he would get to the ball and get into the box well ahead of any Hibs player then he slowed down. He then had a pop at the linesman or even some Hearts fans moaning and proceded to throw a vape or lighter off the pitch. I am presuming he was hit by it during his run, did anyone else see this?

Yes watching on TV I thought the same and if it was a missile the linesman ( never an assistant ref ) should have brought it to the attention of the match officials proper, ie fourth or ref.
