acrossthepond 707 Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 The grammar in that letter is pretty awful, but I don't know if that's a point against or in favor considering who we're talking about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papa Lazaru 0 Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 (edited) Got to be a fake, it mentions "constant noise" driving fans mad, theres no chance of constant noise at The Riverside unless you count the noise of people leaving early and slamming their seats as they go!

Tom 13895 Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 Some people should have nothing to do with football. ''Sue'' is one of them. If true anyway... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig 6321 Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 Reminds me of the Everton v Liverpool cup replay the other week. Halfway through, an announcement came through over the tannoy asking the Liverpool fans to sit down on the grounds of safety. Did they really think an announcement like that was gonna work?

Tom 13895 Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 It's basically asking fans not to express their feelings regarding something they care dearly about and spend thousands of pounds a year on. Something needs to be done about the sterilisation of football before they completely ruin it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halfway through, an announcement came through over the tannoy asking the Liverpool fans to sit down on the grounds of safety. Did they really think an announcement like that was gonna work? Its happened to us a few times like, I remember at Cheltenham the PA in the second half saying "this is a message to Newcastle fans, please do not run on the pitch if Shearer scores" Arguably the funniest one i've heard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kitman 2188 Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 If Boro fans stayed in their seats until a goal's scored, they wouldn't stand up at all this season tbh. Presumably when the crowd has shrunk to 500 people, Sue and their ilk will be happy because the stewards will be able to do their job properly.

Row Z 0 Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 Seems fair enough to me. When did football fans feel they could start ignoring the laws imposed for everyone's safety and stand anyway? What about eldery spectators and young children sitting behind who then also have to stand just so they can see the game. I agree it's better when standing but the Taylor report was filed for a reason. Looks like Middlesborogh are just trying to cover their own backs here which is fair enough, it gives them some leverage when the FA or UEFA come calling to hit them with fines and sanctions.

Kid Dynamite 6045 Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 They can try and spin it any way they want. Theres nowt ambiguous about the line make as much noise as you like when we score, but this constant noise is driving some fans mad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest alex Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 Regarding the noise issue. Do they still play music when they score. Not really an issue at present, obviously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snakehips 0 Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 http://www.mfc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/News/C...1566954,00.html I see Gibson has his face on the front of that. It speaks volumes that the only positive thing about that shitty club is it's chairman, and he has to have his cupon on the banner at the top of the page as a promotion of the club. Then you consider our 'great' club. What positives do we posess? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
