I used to go away 2 or 3 seasons ago but got really browned off with how some fans have got no respect for older fans or children. Wasnt enjoying a good day out anymore, shouldnt be like that. As you can see from some of the comments above, there are still a number of fans who would prefer us oldies, women and children to stay away. I am on the verge of packing it in too.

I just think there is a sizeable minority that don’t think about other fans. Miggins and Ewe Ram 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a sad day when, and I include KathCairns in this, long standing supporters of the club feel uncomfortable about attending games due to the behaviour of people who supposedly support the same team. ? ariotofmyown and Miggins 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then charge them an extra £100 to enter and made to bring their mum to sit next to. I have a bald patch and hair that's receding like the English coastline, even that doesn't come close to the embarrassment that I would feel leaving the house with a Stone Island badge slapped on my arm. What a ridiculous comment. Go to any big night club/ music festival etc and you will see stone island is a massive part of all youth/ music culture. It’s about as crass as saying a woman shouldn’t go out in short skirts at night. Clothing brands don’t make people an idiot.

The Scarlet Pimpernel Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 Before all seater stadiums there was the option to buy seats or terrace tickets. Youngsters want to recreate the terrace experience by standing in the sests but unfortunately that is very inconsiderate to many loyal older fans. It's a problem.

I'm talking about a brand that is widely associated with hooliganism. You're moving it to length of skirts. Ridiculous. Like it or not. It is. Google it.

Dress code in the 70s, Doc Martens or Loafers with half moon metal wedge in the heal where walking in town people thought there was a horse behind them, Levis cut short, Ben Sherman/Fred Perry, Black Harrington Jacket, Crombie for winter, And to top it off my fluorescent green socks, When my Dad saw those socks he choked on his toffees. Only grief we got at away games from OB...our laces were taken from our boots, Daft sods never checked our pockets for spare ones ?

I am on the verge of packing it in too. Thats a real shame but I get what you mean. You have to be so careful especially now away tickets are so expensive. I used to love being in the thick of it when younger and not ill. There's nothing like it when you win but unfortunately there is a real lack of consideration for others like those who cant stand or with small children. Wasnt going to Peterborough mainly as I am immunosuppressed and so didnt want to be in a close crowd but when the extra tickets were on sale the Peterborough ticket office helped me choose some to give me the best chance of feeling a bit safer. That's where a helpful and open ticket office knowing the ground is invaluable compared to just booking online. I hope safe standing helps Kathcairns, Carnero and Wistaston Ram 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
