www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/19663990 FA looking into Coin Tossing @ Hillsborouigh last wednesday night. FA have ranging powers from fines to Ground closure. The next game @ Hillsborough is Sheffield Wednesday v. Hull City on saturday 6th October 2012. I guess it will only be a fine though. But i would not be against a ban on home fans either.
It better go ahead- just booked a hotel there and looking forward to going on a night out round Sheffield.
Back in the day at fer ark, we were asked to throw coins. Two blokes in crash helmets carried a blanket round the ground. The Hull City equivelant of the begging bowl.
If its just one or two doing it, what's the problem? Hardly any different to chanting obsenties and it's been done for years, so, it's a tradition, or right, or something.
Bring it on I say. Came away with a small profit when we won 4-2 there, despite 20 for ticket and a tenner for the car. They must be rolling in it in Sheffield if they chuck those one pound coins.
