TheTaxMan Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 . No mention - a passing one in McLeod's commentary aside after the first goal - of the two smoke bombs in the Rangers end in the game. Given the Daily Record's hysterical reaction to everything in the aftermath of the match it's surprising this wasn't mentioned, given their own front page piece on the dangers of flares and smoke bombs in the week before the match. A Rangers supporting mate who was at the game and in the section next to where the smoke was let off was extremely pissed off by it. He said they couldn't see most of the pitch through the smoke and could hardly breath because of the acrid fumes. Many of the fans round about him complained to stewards and police, pointing out the area where the first flare came from and they did nothing about it. A female fan took a steward to the exact spot the smoke came from and pointed out the group who had done it, again nothing was done. The two flares later on in the match came from exactly the same place. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edinpar Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 It's worth mentioning in light of all this that stewards have absolutely zero power to prevent a pitch invasion. I used to be one during uni and all you get told is to put your arms out and shout to discourage them and specifically not to run after anyone. At the end of the day if you've got hundreds of people running down the stairs and through/over the gate you're meant to be standing in front of, by getting in their way all you're doing is creating a bottleneck and a crush. Fair enough if it's just a couple of bams but when it's at that level there is zero chance of being able to stop anyone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emiliano ZaBankie Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 Next season is going to be a complete clusterfuck of paranoia, media indignation and a real risk of violent goading. Thank f**k my big team will be down with the Hibees next year ðŸ‘🻠0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hedgecutter Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 (edited) https://forzapapac.wordpress.com/2016/05/23/no-apology-no-surrender/ "In near thirty years of going to football matches both at home and abroad Saturday was the worst scene I have ever experienced." "Will we have to wait 27 years for our version of justice?" I was at the match in the West Stand and let me make it clear: No Rangers fans ran onto the field of play until it became clear that Rangers players were being violently attacked by Hibernian animals. Such was the fear for our players lives that they were presented with their medals in the changing area. A Rangers supporting mate who was at the game and in the section next to where the smoke was let off was extremely pissed off by it. He said they couldn't see most of the pitch through the smoke The Manchester riots were sparked by a big screen failure preventing them from seeing a cup final too. Extremely lucky that nobody in that West Stand was hospitalised. ImageUploadedByPie & Bovril1464007439.382707.jpg The Rangers establishment being portrayed as Irish Catholics now?

Romeo Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 Would expect the usual level of violence we have to endure whenever we go there. Fucked that up. Home tie against the Rangers I meant. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
