Does anybody know if this is a temporary measure? Don't think the rugby crowd tomorrow will be happy about this either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An individual contacting the club won't change anything either but chatting about it on this forum shows the strength of feeling between us all about the match day experience (and the whole point of the forum) which will be read by the OASF and someone from the club and may, and has done in the past changed things.

I will take my own bottle next time fully expecting to be frisked and handed over to the health and safety police and kept in the main stand dungeons for the whole match.

oafcmb Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 (edited) 4 hours ago, aaronoafc said: Agree with most of this, thought we where very good for an hour. We are clearly (finally) trying to play football on the ground. We very rarely hoof it. We look scary solid at the back. Really good to see. Disagree on Charsley I thought he did well. Some of the play down the left between him and more so Kitching/Monthe was superb. Thought Conlon looked very good again. Lundstram neat and tidy but I want more from him. The midfield looks soooo much better though due to the fitness/change of a couple players/some proper wing backs. Fondop I thought was hopeless. He should have scored at least 2. If Norwoods not back for months we need to go into the transfer market. I streamed it today due to illness and Conlon did a lovely fizzed pass inside to Fondop which bounced off him. You could see on the stream him turn away in disgust and have a moan. He looked a bit of a cart horse at times. Reid and Willoughby didn’t do much but the game went to shit at 60 minutes once both teams changed everyone. 33 who is meant to be Khan is worth another look, he was really involved. Hogan tried his best to give them the win. Him and Willoughby need shipping off. Probably 5k in wages there which is frustrating. Looked like Jez took an awkward bang right at full time. About 3 mins after the game ended the stream was still going and he had about 4 coaches/medical staff round him. All in all a decent run out. We are finally trying to play football but I love how solid we look as well. Jes is fine going off Mellons comments Edited July 20 by oafcmb 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is actually fairly standard practice across many football grounds I know their is no chance of you throwing a bottle onto the pitch but they have to do it for everyone. The argument will be that someonelse could take it of you throw it. I know it seems a silly rule but it just one bad refereeing decisions to give a last minute penalty against us then some angry idiot throws one on hits a player or the referee and the club gets a fine.

They're probably teenagers who definitely don't want to be there but are at least working. There's a properly horrible atmosphere about our fanbase already, let's not turn it on to young catering staff before the season has even started Edited July 20 by Guy Branston Pickle 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
penrhyn Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 B.P I am with you on this stupid rule . At 79 years at the back of the JR stand you are doing well to see the game let alone hit a player with a bottle top. Unless of course you have some other hidden skills you havnt revealed .

BradKnowles1 Posted July 21 Author Share Posted July 21 I’m sure I have read somewhere they’ve gone to a national caterer rather than the local one which was being used. last season the food was pretty decent and pricing was standard. Asking kids to pay £2 for a small bag of crisp is just a rip off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're calling someone who is on their first job who is learning about the world of work and life itself on minimum wage a twat because they didn't smile at you. Have you thought they might just be abit nervous and shy I certainly was in my first job? Have you thought it might just be you being a miserable old twat?

peanuts2 Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 13 hours ago, BP1960 said: Talking of catering I purchased a bottle of Sprite (£3!! and yes I reluctantly paid by card). The person behind the counter handed me the plastic bottle without the top, when I asked for it explaining I wouldn't finish the bottle during the match and wanted to take the rest home the reply came. "Sorry you can't have it as you might throw the top onto the pitch". As l I'm 79yo and sat at the top of the JR stand I was too amazed to a argue. Never again will I partronise this high charging inflexible establishment again. Mr Royle and the board please note the complaints. you will more than likeley find that its out of the clubs hands and part of the safety certificate for the stand that only open topped drink containers can be sold but is worth taking up with the powers that be @oasf over to you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
