Disagree heavily. Being one of those sat below it, theres an incident most games, or certainly was for a good period before the searches seem to have had some impact. Then yesterday, as below, we cancel the searches and there are 10 people chucked out. Basically justifies the clubs position entirely.He’s got a point tbf.
You can imagine the moaning on here if the same rules were applied to our away fans.
99% of away fans at the SOL are no bother.
"Hi Malcolm,
Thank you for meeting with me today, it was good to speak with yourself and Zara at length to better understand the issues raised in relation to the Enhanced Search at the Stadium of Light.
As you know I withdrew the Enhanced Search shortly before going to turnstiles today.
Unfortunately a number of Stoke City supporters threw coins into the home supporters below them.
Following a review of CCTV one Stoke City supporter was arrested and a further ten were ejected for involvement in coin throwing.
As mentioned in our meeting we have implemented the Enhanced Search on a minority of matches, and up until today had not had any reports of missiles being thrown by away fans.
As an aside a further 8 Stoke City supporters were ejected for damaging seats.
I hope you both have a safe journey home, and I hope that you are able to introduce our discussions into the national bodies with whom you are engaged.
Best wishes and Regards
Steve"
And being over to a Stoke fan and being proven wrong is yet another reason Steve Neil needs the sack
