This club needs people like you... We could see from the upper that something was going on and did think that the situation could have escalated with some of the Ponty crew chanting and getting restless..the stewards need to learn how to deal with situations calmly ( if indeed thre was any incident).The club announce that CCTV is being used to monitor behaviour in the crowd well let's play it back and look at this incident. Stick with it Granty am sure your lad will be blown away by the support for you among us other Reds.
I agree, Andy is an asset to the club and I was pleased to see him checking in to make sure you were okay.
I thought from the bit of a commotion i could see from the ESL. It was cos someone had taken their shirt off doing tango man tbh. Definitely don't pack up G. Andy will definitely have reported back given what you've said. They could well invite young un for a special visit. Thinking back to when the east stand opened. I had words with a steward at half time. ( genuinely can't remember what it was over it was that trivial) and he was staring me out all the second half. He wasn't there the next game after I reported him. Man in yellow coat drunk with power or so he thought.
Takes me back to the Kitkatkubes day. Me led away with my arm up my back cos I was trying to get to my mate at half time with a packet of sweets and the stewards were in the way. I received a sincere letter of apology from the club secretary Chris Patzelt, which I've still got. I think my friend might have prompted the apology from the club. Ian McMillan. Anyway Granty, stick with it and good luck in your quest.
Dangerous weapon. Imagine strips of KitKat cut into cubes, in a bag, absolutely lethal in the wrong hands, ie mine.
If he started the Leeds scum chant then the stewards had to do something about it. There'd been an announcement and we've been warned numerous times about religious/racist chants. He may well get banned if its on CCTV. If it wasn't anything to do with that then I agree they were heavy handed.
They were heavy handed regardless, about 10 of em marching along the front of the Ponty like bloody stormtroopers.
Another set of crap stewards. First Doyles pub boucers now this lot. Where do the club get them from?
We could start a BBS crowdfunder and get Granty an even bigger, louder megaphone First chant could be "If you wear a yellow jacket, you're a ........."
I can't believe there was actually a confectionery item called Kit Kat Kubes. Must have sold loads at the EDL tuck shop.
Is the lead stormtrooper the big lad with the bald head? Makes me laugh that fella who feels he has to escort subbed players back round the pitch to the dugouts if they go off by the East Stand. Literally walks alongside them the whole way and hands them over to the backroom staff. Gets right pelters from the WSL taking the piss. Got a round of applause last time - think it was Norwood coming off. Shout of "well done Steward.....absolute textbook chaperoning!!"
