I know its important to get the kids there young otherwise they will end up supporting Man United or Liverpool like everyone else over here. (Northern Ireland) I'm afraid there is always "some" level of bad language in all areas. Maybe the grandstand has less than anywhere else. You'll just have to do what my daughter did when I started taking my grandson. You have to impress on the child that he must never, ever, repeat any bad language hear hears at the match. And never repeat anything he hears his grandad say whilst driving to the game. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know its important to get the kids there young otherwise they will end up supporting Man United or Liverpool like everyone else over here. (Northern Ireland) I'm in the Grandstand- family area (3rd block in). I've been challenging a few individuals about their language all season, up to a point where I blew a fuse at a few of them a few games ago and all but one have reigned it in a bit. If you want to join me in there we can work together next season Joking aside, I've spoken to the club and they've assured me they're making an effort to sort it by sending in covert teams when complaints are made.

Quite saddened by this , words can be very powerful and intimidating , what example is an adult setting to some impressionable young kid when Effing and Jeffing , only words yes but mostly said in anger.

Only words people... I can just picture the scene at the next parents evening: Teacher: Unfortunately, we need to discuss little Johnny's foul language. This morning, he called dear old Mrs Smith, one of the grandmas who comes in to read with our children, a f*cking c*unt, threatened to rip off her head and sh*t down her neck, and then started jumping up and down shouting 'if you don't f*cking bounce' over and over. When I tried to speak to him about his behaviour, he told me 'the library's a sh*thole, I want to go home'. Parent: Hmmmm. I wouldn't worry about it; they're just words. Have you seen what's going on in Syria? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ramone Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 At some point in their lives they're going to learn the words anyway, so may as well be while you're watching the blue and white wizards... As others have said, South Stand is your best bet. I've sat on the South twice this season and not really heard any swearing to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

owls maniac Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 I sit on the halfway line on the south and could probably count on one hand the amount of times I’ve heard bad language. And those expletives were predominately directed towards Alan Irvine, and quite rightly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get her exposed early on and she’ll be reyt.
