O.T. apologies that your earlier post got deleted jamie .... as you posted the same thing multiple times, I think multiple moderators must have deleted all the duplicates at the same time and all of the posts disappeared. Its not a clampdown though Jamie, its an application of the rules that are actually in place !!!! If you go to a game and behave within the actual rules, there is (usually) nothing to fear. If you can bend them at certain grounds and not cause hassle for yourselves or antagonise the stewards then fair enough, but you know as well as I do that many stewards are very officious and if you get in their face, there will only be one winner and normally it wont be the fans .... thats really what this thread was intended for ... a heads up to consider obeying or even pulling back a little and bending them but stopping short of breaking them and then causing bother/antagonism when confronted about it .... As I said before ...... Until or unless the rules about standing change, then how the rules are applied, and who they are applied to matters not a jot. Frustrating as **** I agree, but at the root of it, it's the rule thats causing the issue, and the application of the rule, or in some cases the non-application of it that is causing the frustration. Lobby to have the rule changed rather than all out confrontation and the outcome might just be better !

Some good stuff on here, although I'm too young to remember much more than visiting Fine Fare and La Scala lol. Should start another thread where folks can post pics of places & old sneck - would be good to see what the place looked like before it became full of franchised pubs and mundane national organisations. Certainly sounds like a lot of character is gone :(

I blame ImmortalHowdenender for his immature glamourisation of it all

Members of my family get to every away game and remark that it's the same lads of about 16/17 who get ejected every week. Bit of a waste of money going really.

Have you ever seen/heard a good choir sing sitting down all the time? Standing gives your lungs more capacity and unrestricted air flow so allowing you to sing louder. Therefor, creating a noise which if put together with fellow singers,= support that helps drive team on, and therfor, creates an atmosphere. Drink, allows those of a quieter disposition or shy, like myself, the ability to join in with the choir. making more noise= more support for team and creates an atmosphere

Just for the record...I've never worked out why people can't sing and chant and have a good time whilst sitting down...

Scottish football Cannot afford to turn fans away. First it's a Clampdown on us at home... now away.. are they trying to turn us away from the club?
