Belfast Owl 2 Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 I reckon the OP should stop crying about it. In the real world people will swear at football and if you don’t like it then tough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of enthusiasm and pace but zero control, restraint or composure.

briggowl Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 Had an incident against the blunts, bloke stood up at 2-0 and used F, C, B in the space of 30 seconds. It was a proper spectacular rant at CC. A woman confronted him and then went to get a steward, while I tried to have a sensible word to say that he can't do that in the family stand, which resulted in 'I've sat here for fifteen Fing years'. Lots of kids quite upset about it all. Fortunately a steward came to have a word, he shut up and hasn't been back. Well out of order. Best thing is to go find a steward, they actually do something and look to sort it out. The odd swear if not excusable is understandable, going in the family stand with a foul mouth is unacceptable. Also why would 4 grown men come and sit in this stand with no kids? Bit weird that in it? Keeps happening around our area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitechapel Owl Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 1 hour ago, i used to be sc_owl said: I have a season ticket in the Grandstand. I also go on my own. I choose the GS as I like to see the bigger picture when watching football. I like seeing just how static and unmoving our slow motion play is. Anyway, there are groups of middle aged guys who do just shout and swear all match long. Not to mention the guy two rows in front who stands and hurls abuse several times a game for the most minor events. Stewards should do more. One warning and then ejection for the family area IMO. Are you allowed in the family stand without a child then? I know for other clubs such as the pigs you have to purchase at least one child ticket with every adult ticket.

I assumed that would be the rule in all family stands. I've never sat up there because its impossible to get through 90 minutes of watching Wednesday without doing at least one swear.

The Sheffield Wednesday family stand should be free from idiots, bad language, violence and anything else that is deemed 'non family friendly' Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
