Oh really, well thats good we've got that cleared up then. Any future chants to be passed through the 'whats ok' comittee. Cause whilst not my cup of tea, barmy army is fine by me, as kevin iro - or any other chants.

My motivation for defending is more along the lines that i really dont see the problem. The mess over minutes silence was really just down to people getting it mixed up over communication. The young people at the back have been respectful over every other minutes silence i can recall.
I have said previously we used to sit in the west stand, and have seen this same attitude over having a blow horn (sold officially once before aints derby). We where told to not bring it, then aiving our flags was aproblem. Unless you sit still and just watch the game its a problem. A guy used to boo when opposite side took a kick,..he was told to shut up. One fella got a letter sent to his house..some kind of official warning. I for one dont want that attitude any where near the south stand, for the past 5 years have enjoyed the attude of tolerance in the south stand.
My attitude its a rugby match, watched by 18,000 people. There are many different sorts of folk there, and without the barmy army crew - the match would be overall a much duller expierience..in my opinion

Quote: Rogues Gallery "Well done that man.'"


Cheers!

It wasn't so much about the "minute's silence" issues, which Mick concedes could have been managed better, but the general misbehavior of that small minority of [so-called] fans.

He's very keen on an element of self-policing (we were talking about the "old days" at CP, when they'd have got a "clip round t'earhole"!) to complement the clubs efforts. To some extent, it's a question of where to draw the line - we want to keep the atmosphere, but stop it getting so unpleasant that it puts people off. (having said that, we did agree that perhaps people who object to the noise might be better off in another stand...).

So..those of you who are normally in that area, please help the club out, either by having words with the offenders or passing on information/descriptions to the club.

Incidentally, on a similar subject, the guy from the Saints game who punched the steward has apparently been identified, and things are happening on that front.

Quote: Pie Eyed "I have *never* heard any racist chanting (don't even know what "the Watene chant" is), and never had any problem with the kids at the back, other than being privately annoyed about the drunken scrotes that are clearly too young to be allowed near alcohol.'"


Never heard racist chanting or the Watene one. One or two idiots blurting out something offensive at a game does not constitute a chant. There has been more damage done by folk stirring up that non-event than the moron who might have actually said it could ever wish to have done.

Underlined pretty much as I said earlier in the thread. As for the rest....oh for the days when you could clip someone round the ear! k020.gif

think i am going to be moving to the side of the south for the next home game although i enjoy the singing and "chanting" i dont not want to be branded as a chav. there are some genuine supporters back there but seem to bring along 'friends' who couldnt give one about the game and seems to cause the bother. like at bradford away this season, havent seen that group of 'fans' recently, maybe the club have banned these?
