Thoughts on this strange thread, I would not buy a ticket in the knob head section of the ponty, who would watch a live stream on Facebook fixed by some twxt on a mobile phone rather than go to the game answer no one but if someone did then good riddance it won't cost the club enough to worry about , if a steward wants to see my ticket no problem I will show it as many times as they want. Fact some barnsley fans are knob heads fact some stewards are knob heads it is all an unfortunate part of life but we must carry on regardless.
I'm guilty as charged then for daring to take a photo on holy ground. On Tuesday night, I'll hand myself in to the fat steward in West Lower, whose big arse is always hanging out of his keks, ruining the match day experience. At least I'll be able to out run that one, if he tries with the heavy stuff. I'll head for the centre of the pitch and hide behind Robbo...
I think the problem was when the youth were sitting/standing where they wanted in the top corner and letting flares off the stewards should have took some action like go up kick out whoever has the flare then start checking tickets ect instead they just pointed from the bottom of the ponty and did nothing. Week after seats are smashed up and another flare set off...... After that I think the stewards have had a roasting from the club for doing nothing. Scince then they seem to have got rid of the small minority in the top corner but are now treating the whole area as trouble casuers trying to justify there wage.
You can film whatever you like pretty much anywhere, in the case of a pro football match you just wouldn't be allowed to distribute the footage without their permission. And I'm sure you can take your own snap in, just not bottles and cans which could obviously be used as missiles, the stewards need some education on this perhaps.
Currently it's Morsy, the left back, referees and the queue for a pie what's ruining my match day experience.
I'm sure the club have bigger things to worry about than a few teenagers filming thier favourite players. I don't belive for one second that anyone is streaming a Saturday game live on fb...like I said the amount of data it would use......its hard enough to get a decent Internet connection in oakwell..... we are barnsley not man u our fan base is mainly the barnsley area if people want to watch they buy a ticket
Illegal to film or take photos as you say. I got chased from one side of an Elbow gig in Washington DC to the other for taking a photo. Had to hide at the back for five minutes before changing where I stood every second song. Known artists walk off stage if they see a camera in the air too. For anyone reading this other than YT. I'm not saying kids should be threatened with phone conviscation for filming. Just that it is technically against the law.

Unlimited data these days for a lot of folk. Sacrifice the free texts for unlimited data in your contract and use Whats Ap and Snapchat. Data wouldn't be a barrier to streaming. There were games on Periscope as well not long back. I watched one!* * Disclaimer - it was an away game I wasn't going to go to anyway
Last season when we were scoring for fun from set plays plenty were filming them and putting them on social media even before the games had finished away games especially, then people on here were posting the links to these. Hope the are all found and banned for life worse than pitch invaders!!!
That means jack **** they could have been still pictures. And how did you find these streams? I couldn't find one for the leeds game when I didn't want to give a crook 37 quid or are you mates with the streamers?
No I'm not mates with them but it took me about 2 minutes to search n Facebook and see them and fine I'm a liar, they weren't all from live streams. I made it up because this kind of thing would never ever happen and nobody gets more than 20mb of data in 2016. In fact we are all long because you dont believe it. If they are simple photographs then what do you think they were taken using to be such poor quality?
No your right it is a massive problem of people streaming games on facebook all round the world. The club must be losing millions every season. These people need finding and banning immediately or maybe ban phones from oakwell.... or we could just ban everyone and play behind closed doors 1st it was people letting flares off, then smashing seats up now they are streaming games and costing the club even more money what next!!!
