Dear… We appreciate your continued support – the atmosphere created by the fans is a big factor in the team’s performance. Our aim is to provide a thrilling, safe environment for home and away fans to enjoy their football, and we need your help. We have noticed a recent trend of extreme behaviour from a minority of fans, particularly those regularly buying tickets in the North part of the East Stand. This behaviour is beginning to have an impact on our matchday operations, with stewarding and police costs going up as a direct result. Because of this, we have sadly had to ban a number of individuals after reviewing CCTV and bodycam footage, so we are going to be monitoring fans in these parts of the stadium more closely at upcoming home matches. Please ensure you sit in the seat you have booked, be prepared for your tickets to be checked at any time, and report any anti-social behaviour or suspicious activity to a member of staff immediately. Thanks, Hull City
I've noticed a long-standing trend of coked-up visiting fans goading home supporters in that part of the ground , often accompanied by foulmouthed insulting chanting. Why not have a zero tolerance of that instead? Might nip the trouble in the bud.
They want to kill the game. Sanitise it until all that remains are a gaggle of shirt wearing happy clappers demanding their Saturday afternoon entertainment.
No but the costs our local plod charge are shocking and massively over the top, as are the numbers they assign the games
This is presumably a response to the bottles being chucked across. There were loads both ways at the Sheff U game and one again last night when that weirdo was getting dragged out, it wasn't far off clocking one of the stewards escorting him on the head. Speaking of that guy, I've been in that corner for a couple of years and I can't believe how often it is (almost every game since I've been there) that one single away fan gets himself into a state like that and inevitably booted out. It's always the same, they pointlessly goad and gesticulate, come as close as possible to the City fans, get the piss taken out of them, spiral into unconsolable rage and then get dragged out. It's amazing how it happens game after game, but never more than one guy per match.
Fond memories of a night game v Hartlepool (sorry can't remember what formation the manager was playing) and that female monkey hanger lass in the N stand lifting up her top to reveal grubby grey bra and large lardy whammers, before she was then bundled out by the KCOM killjoys
I remember when I used to throw flares. Mind you it was a bit draughty walking home without trousers on..
