Smoke bomb not flare. Very different prospect and considerably less dangerous.
That's alright then.
It's pretty much impossible to get burns from a smoke bomb unless you are a complete imbecile and hold your hand over the end the smoke comes from. Very different from a flare that actual burns as serious heat. That's all I'm saying. Important distinction to make. Not saying it's not idiotic and I get the asthma/breathing point.
All I'm saying is let's not accidentally turn it into something it's not.
Going back to the seat thrower I hope they are identified by the club, banned from the stadium and that their details are passed to the police for prosecution for criminal damage. There also appeared some intent to cause some harm to the unsuspecting steward who was just standing pitch side looking in the other direction.
The club need to show a zero tolerance towards this imbecilic behaviour.

Do you think a 5 or 6 year old would be able to tell the difference if a smoke bomb hit them on the head and landed next to them?
I sit in the lower covered C and in the last few games I’ve seen (and reported) laser pointers directed at the photographers and players being pelted with whatever came to hand. Couldn’t go yesterday but this is appalling.
Sat in North Lower and everyone around me was brilliant. Fantastic humour going on and everyone respecting each other, thought it was a brilliant atmosphere and would happily sit amongst them for next week.

You should've invited them onto here. Place needs it.

I sit amongst some great people and agree re the atmosphere, however recently have noticed a few incidents I haven’t seen before.

Serious note, saw the seat come flying from my periphery to the right, the older steward at the front was shocked to say the least, his shake of the head in complete disappointment said it all, absolute bell end behaviour and completely out of context and no need.
Even as someone helps deliver beer / drive sales of beer at a Football stadium, fiver for Fosters is ludricous, same with Carling and Carlsberg.
You should count yourself lucky you don't live in another country. Those games are full of flares, smoke bombs, fireworks etc... Not justyfying it, but we are a bit mambi pambi over all that. This includes: Germany, Netherlands, France, The Scandanavian countries.
The back of F block used to have a good natured bunch, singing retro songs and being supportive. Now it seems, it must be different folk there, what with the fight and seat throwing. This stuff has no place at The Valley - the culprits should head a few miles up the road if they want to do that stuff. Don't get me started on the smoke bombs - but U18's can't be searched and therein lies the problem.

No one is searched at the moment, not sure if that’s covid related (sure I was searched at an away match this season, possibly Lincoln).

Smoke is generated by heat. The canister could cause injury. No place in a football stadium.
Since the crowds have returned it seems around the country there’s been a rise in misbehaviour at football. Why some people are so desperate to get themselves banned or arrested after a year of not going I just don’t get it. Whole grounds and everywhere meaningful are under CCTV
I was desperate to get banned from the Valley when Adkins was the manager, however I am behaving myself now guvnor.
Anyone else see the broken seat thrown from the Covered End lower after full time? Thrown like a frisbee over the heads of fans,plenty of them women and children. It hit a steward pitchside on the back of the leg. Hope the fucking moron who threw it got caught on cctv and is banned. Couldve seriously hurt someone.
I was the fire steward that the seat hit at the end of a cracking game. Love it when The Valley is packed and lively like this. Two nil, bossed the game and beat the league leaders. Get in!!! Was p#"#ed off with the idiot that threw the seat. Not saying it was aimed at me but could've been pretty nasty if it had struck someone's bonce. Idiotic coward.
Technically a FBO is only supposed to be given if it reduces the risk of violence. Always worthwhile finding a decent lawyer before simply accepting a ban because they tell you to.

Don't know why this was in reply to me. I never said it was okay just wanted to make the distinction that it was a smoke bomb not a flare.

Rear of F block lower Covered end. I hope he’s caught & banned utter moron.
Behind where I usually sit then, I had to duck out right on the whistle today to catch the train, probably the same bellends that were starting fights a couple of games ago and got kicked out by security eventually.
Something must have happened in the Upper North before the game as there was a bloke with blood coming out of his nose & his mates hammering on toilet doors wanting loo paper to help stop the bleeding.
Someone said on Facebook that the drummer got nutted apparently...
The drummer! What’s that poor fella done wrong?
The tempo of Valley Floyd Road for starters....
The drummer was on my train on the way home. I didn't see him, but you could bloody well hear him

Should be same price as water.
Which they knock out at a ridiculous £2.20 a bottle.
Probably costs something like 15-20p a bottle from the wholesalers.

Club ban is different of course.
That's really good advice for anyone who, having thrown a dangerous object at or near innocent people, including children, at a football match, then get into trouble and face a football banning order.

True but taking a knuckle duster with you to a game might come under risk of violence as was the case with a recent high profile CAFC related FBO

I have even better advice for people like that.
