It looked from where I was sitting he tickled his sides, stewards certainly didn’t tickle anyone’s sides getting him out though
What is wrong with folk, loads of kids there last night including my 6yr old daughter who had to witness grown men grappling with stewards and it got quite ugly, we were planning on a few away games this season think we'll give it a miss now.
Avoid blackpool and fleetwood and you cant really go wrong. Beer and the scent of turd filled sea air dims most peoples interlects.
Aye they was some carry on last time at blackpool our own fans wanting to scrap with each other over seating!!
I wonder how many of the fans singing "get a proper job" to the stewards, are in gainful employment. The bloke that went on the pitch was willing to give himself up and be ejected, or given a warning, but his mates weren't having any of it.
Shameful mindless idiots. But some on here will condone or even encourage such behaviour. I suppose all clubs have an idiot element but there’s no need to glorify them. They need calling out for what they are.
That very nearly happened Saturday over seating pal, Little s**ts wanting to stand with their mates behind goal instead of sitting in their seat. Thankfully after myself and a couple more had a word that if the stewards did not sort it out then we would at half time they would not let anyone into the stand without seeing their ticket.
If your wife/daughter/sister/mother was doing their job and some drunk half-wit (being generous) went and grabbed her arse, would you be fine with that? Why should it be any different for a man?
It was my son who tweeted. Not only did we have that going on in the aisle near us, but we had a row full of gob shites in front of us, that just took everything too seriously. When Blackpool scored they were standing up gesturing and shouting obscenities towards their fans at the other end of the stand, and also calling Stendel an idiot for not getting Potts on more quickly. They were like the Inbetweeners on spice.
Haven’t seen the incident but it doesn’t sound serious. If I was playing and someone ran on and grabbed my arse I’d think ‘that wa weird’ but laugh it off. Completely different situation to some bloke grabbing a womans arse in an office etc and you know it. People like you who make a mountain out of a molehill that’s ruining this country.
A bizarre incident that seemed to baffle most people! I thought the bloke was trying to reach the ball to give it back but a ball boy beat him to it. It looked like he then decided to nip onto the grass and give Pinnilos a tickle/pat on the sides. Bizarre, if non-threatening. What happened afterwards was basically an elongated tug-of-war involving four fans and a few stewards. I'm surprised people are saying they're being put off travelling away from home though. I felt both away games have been pretty tame and good-natured even pre-season like last night. You'll never eradicate every idiot but last night couldn't have got much more sedate if it tired. On another note, did anyone else find the four police horses quite ridiculously over the top last night? Quite a few police officers, two horses outside the away end, two more guarding an empty stand, little to no atmosphere or tension... unless a Blackpool fans protest was expected I didn't see the need.
You would want hands as big as a No.5 coal shovel to have grabbed Jason Scotland's arse, he had the biggest arse I have seen on a football field
That’s the issue with this whole incident. Barnsley fans have a reputation. It is partially earned. The police will have been present to mitigate that. We can moan all we like about overzealous policing but when a supporter evades security to encroach on to the field of play, makes contact with a player, and then a scuffle between further supporters and the security staff ensues when they try to eject him, you can’t plead innocence. Whether we think it minor or not, authorities won’t. That will have been seen, will be reported too. We have no right to complain about what we might deem to be heavy handed security and policing, as all the clubs we have yet to visit will be responsible for preventing our fans from doing the same again, and so will plan accordingly. Those idiots have at least in part spoilt the away trips for a lot of people, potentially for the whole season. I don’t get why folk can’t just follow basic rules and behave like a functioning human. If you can’t do that when you’ve had an ale or three, don’t have any.
Unfortunately some people think because they have paid a entrance fee they have a right to do say or behave however they like I'm all for a sing and a laugh but on numerous occasions over the last 4/5 seasons I've seen the boundary completely over stepped and it's not young kids mostly people old enough to know better.
Saw the whole incident and the cause was not helped by drink. The guy got through the gap in the railings, then after touching Pinillos ran up the steps talking the piss out of the stewards on his way to his seat. As the stewards went to eject him his mates including a female intervened.
