Bags were searched at the Galpharm last home game

So lodge a complaint with the Giants too

TBF the rule itself is quite sensible - it's surprising to me that a sports stadium doesn't seem to have been targeted by terrorists yet. What isn't sensible is that she still had to empty the bottle even after showing it was harmless by drinking some of the contents! A bit of common sense would have been appropriate there.

Reminds me of one time when my almost empty 110ml tube of toothpaste was confiscated at an airport security check - an almost full 100ml tube would have been OK!

I took in half a bottle of water in my hand and my girlfriend had her bag searched!

Interesting as I had a bag with a previously opened bottle of water inside along with a further couple of bottles of pop. I also just finished a can of lager so would've been prime for a bag search but I wasn't even approached so had i not got rid of two cans i couldve easily have taken cans in! Not heard of checking bottles due to heightened security threat only if suspect of hidden alcohol! Will probably know more once I've completed some training I'm about to embark on. But to say not all bags are being searched they're ain't doing it thoroughly despite the threat!!

I have approached them about this and was told that people were taking their own alcohol in - implying that they weren't buying the *** stuff served in the ground!

Bag searching happens at many grounds now. This wasn't my complaint. It was the fact that people weren't being allowed in with their own, non-alcoholic drinks on a very hot day.

Yeah but you can't stop one drink over another, it's not about beer - but simply not buying anything from the vendors in the ground

Maybe if they weren't criminally overpriced, shockingly poor quality and ineptly staffed they might have better custom

This has been an issue all season, many Wakey fans have complained and nowts happened. Even one of the clubs most loyal supporters has called it a day because of the attitude and the stewards involved and the attitude of the club. I'd like to apologise because it is quite frankly pathetic.

As a wakefield supporter i had the same problem weeks ago and it was discussed on our forum, my grandson had a bag with pop and sweets confiscated and although i complained to the club they didnt bother to reply its just plain silly but i have seen the same happen every home game with the supprise on the visiting fans face unreal.

Agreed this was a potential al Qaeda target.

Imagine the scenes as people are killed or injured in their tens and the possible financial damage to a state of the art facility like belle Vue.

You can never be too careful. Carter is planning further squad cuts next year to pay for a bunker under the club offices similar to the one Whitehall that they built during the Cold War.

The money saved on Richie Mathers for example could pay for a years supply of tins of pek.

Tim smith won't be back next year as that's paying for a water filtration system.

In all seriousness though Wakefield need to sort this situation as it's totally stupid.

Especially in light of the ongoing fans boycott over it

In all seriousness though wouldn't you be better of addressing the problems of your own club instead of trying to cause mischief elsewhere

Thats right the Wakey board is the place to discuss Wakey business, but you a Bradford fan want to discuss it on the Giants' board for some reason, I know there isn't anything of interest to discuss on the Bradford board and I can see your reason for wanting intelligent conversation, so why don't you enter into dialogue with daddy cool if you have that much of a fixation with him.

nice one chissitt

So only wakefield fans on the Wakefield board are allowed to comment on the draconian anti terror laws in place at belle Vue? That explains why you've got one thread complaining about it and another thread slagging off Ivor and his daughter for having anopinion on it as away supporters.

I've told daddy cool what I think of him when he came on the bradford board.

Loads to talk about on our board just announced the new deal signed by one of our top academy products. Player retention despite being relegated. Unlike you chumps that are shipping out players like nobodies business. Skint again after gambling on staying up I wonder?

I'll stop derailing threads now on the giants board. Good luck for the play offs Fartown.
