Sounds like they’ll all be on Leppings Lane with cans then, bizarre from SYP My mates just sent me the info they’ve been given from Everton “There are no designated away pubs near to the stadium and any away supporter coaches looking for a place to drink are being advised to visit pubs en-route in Hoyland and Birdwell. They are within the 10-mile restriction area but pubs there will accept away fans by prior arrangement” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This what I did when purchasing online last Friday. Problem solved really. And we save the environment by not wasting paper and power printing...the green kit makes sense now.

Of course they don't. We are the last "minority" that can be treated in this way. Imagine if you put any other word in some of the sentences concerning football fans. "No away fans" outside pubs, "exclusion zones" for goodness sake. Trying to stop people walking down certain streets which are public thoroughfares. Filming people lawfully leaving football grounds. The people who are subject to this outrageous treatment are, in 99% of cases, completely harmless innocent and responsible members of society. It makes my blood boil. And, furthermore, in a free society you should be able to decide to go on the night, turn up and pay on the gate. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because I choose to go to a football match what right does anyone have to stop me eating drinking walking around public places. Do we treat any other minorities in this way because it seems we are just treated like crap. Is it lawful with all the anti discrimination laws?

Mark Pembridge Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Most other cities embrace football for what it adds in tourism, football themed hotels, bars and museums yet visit Hillsborough and you aren’t allowed a pint at Kelham island?

Harrysgame Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 You would have thought that someone would think why is it that every other town and city outside of Sheffield can handle competently football matches and crowds. We on the other hand seem to go on a war footing for a few hundred fans. Look at London on Sunday 4 home PL fixtures, I know they have more police but also have a better attitude to football fans. Football fans can bring millions of pounds to a community over the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not expecting 20,000 , pathetic if so , should be nearer 30k Why pathetic? I have just decided to go, fairly last minute decision because I thought I was going to be away tonight. But I wasn't esp fussed knowing I'd miss it, and if Mrs Wookie hadn't already made other plans might well have decided to stay in with a film. It's scarcely a significant game; and if you're an STH you do get quite a bit of football to go to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your a Wednesdayite you look at tonight as a decent game against a premier League side with a chance of getting a win and then a memorable night , Everton are a huge club who are bringing 4500 over , atmosphere should be s good one , I can't see why you wouldn't want to go , oh and its £20 hardly breaking the bank is it?

I think that's a pity, but then again pretty much everything that has happened to domestic football since 1992 seems a pity to me! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
