what was going on in the North stand in the second half, after Tommy and Gary had made a complete cock up of the High ball competition shortly after the second half began some of the stewards approached Tommy and spoke to Tommy most animatedley for several minutes, I thought for a minute that they were about to chuck him out, I wonder if it was summat to do with what Tommy had written on his stomach, it may well have been either way it's another example of the stewards coming the old were in charge bit, how long are they going to be allowed to get away with thinking that they are our bosses.

it was the writing tommy had on his stomach.

Well come on what did it say?

some racist idiot had "vote BNP" written on his belly, i'm surprised he could spell it, then again his mates who where trying to get him to remove his shirt could possibly have written it for him, they didnt have the bottle to do it on themselves so used one of the village idiots.

I wonder if the same racists cheered on our non-white players?
I wonder what thier thoughts on a certain Des Drummond are?

either the the idiot should have been ejected from the ground.

As for the stewards? they was just asking him not to reveal the writing again as some might find it offensive.

seems peawapp should get the full facts before spouting off about the boys and girls in orange

The lad had just as much right to have 'VOTE BNP' his stomach (regardless of how primitive it appears) as Andy Burnham has of wearing a red rosette with 'Vote Labour' to the game.

I doubt the stewards will have a word with Mr Burnham though.

=================================================================
WELL SAID THIS IS GREAT BRITAIN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
VOTE FOR WHO YOU WANT AND NOT GET TORTURED OR KILLED !!!!
I Have always voted Labour and will again

Or perhaps just simply dealing with a situation that had several supporters complaining about?

Damned if we do, damned if we dont.

By the way we dont think were youre bosses at all, we are there for the safety of the spectators, and if several spectators complain about the same thing, do you expect us too ignore it?

As your a know all, when did you get your Stewarding qualifictions?

And if you dont like it, just remember, no ones forcing you to come to the ground.

You should have told the complainers that whilst it is not a popular thing to display on your chest it is not illegal.
So, if enough people complained about "The flute song" would you do something about it?

I wouldnt no,Not my Juristiction!
I was simply giving an answer the question posed.

If enough complained about the flute song, then its the club that would get in trouble isnt it?

But as has been said does he not have as much right as anybody else to show who he wants to come into power or is it just because its BNP???So therefore you yourselves are being predjudice against someone??

Is it still a free country?

I think what the words were written on was more offensive
