When will City tackle the REAL problem? (03/01/02)

So the Front page of the Mockery today leads with the dreadful story of swearing at Filbo, infront of kids. 170 people banned so far apparently. And the Mockery makes a big deal about this poor kid who was upset. Did they bother to get the other side to the story? No course not.

FFS is sorry that the kid had a bad time...

But what we want to know is why was that kid allowed in the City end with Hammers colours on, along with umpteen other Hammers fans anyway?

For months now City fans have sat and watched away fans sit in our seats with their colours on openly shouting and screaming abuse at our players, and we have sat and watched away fans racially abuse the people of Leicester, and we have seen our resident knobheads in the Krazy Korner of the Kop chuck coins to their hearts content.

And what do City do? Ban people for swearing. 20,000 people swear every week for fox sake. You gonna chuck us all out eventually?

But not only that, there is also the classic case of banning someone for...wait for it... falling asleep!! We kid you not. Don't even ask...it's a long story.

Ok, lets be realistic, in an ideal world it would be nice to not have the swearing in front of kids. We all find it uncomfortable sometimes. But who hasn't done it in the heat of the moment when you're bottom of the league and Akinbiyi is being the biggest lump of shite you've ever seen in your life?

No, what the real probelm is (when we're already wound up cos Dennis twatting Wise can't take a corner to save himself) is when there are away fans in our seats openly supporting their club and being wankers about it.

We've probably all sneaked in the wrong end if tickets are tight at some game. But you sit quietly, you don't cheer and you certainly don't wear your colours.

What the hell did this guy think he was doing taking his little girl into the wrong end? He broke the rules and then moaned about it! It's not a nice perfect world where you can do that yet, it aint rugby. It winds people up, simple as that.

Why didn't the stewards ask the Hammers fans to leave and go sit in the Hammers bit (where there were seats) when they saw a situation flaring up? Cos they're chicken shits that's why. They never deal with any situation, and usually inflame it by siding with the away fans.

It states clearly that away fans can be ejected from the home end; it's all over the ticket office. Why don't they bloody do it then?

Instead City penalise the very people they are desperate to get to buy season tickets in the new stadium. Would you, if they'd banned you for 3 games?

Come on City, sort your stewards out. Enforce the swearing bans sensibly if you feel it's right but get the rest of the stuff right as well, or you'll continue to look stupid and piss fans off.

Get the players to encourage fans not to swear cos their kids have to hear it too. Have competitions to come up with chants with substite words intstead of swear words. Use your imaginations.

Mansfield is going to be a test. They've already sold over 3,000 and expect to bring 5,000. Leicester can't sell their allocation...guess what's gonna happen?

How you gonna deal with it? Eject all the City fans for getting pissed off about it? Sort it out...
