Stewards/security in the west stand

[Tommy2holes]

Threw my mate out tonight for nothing.

Slyly asked him for a chat and then dragged him out for apparently being too loud and aggressive.

Didnt know he had gone until he called to say he was making his way to the office to make a complaint.

I also saw them drag another bloke out for starting the " stand up if you love southend song "

My mate is not one to cause trouble in the slightest.

These blokes are going to get a kick in sooner or later.

If you are going to continually ask people to sit down then you cannot allow every away support that visits to stand up as its just makes you look silly and a jobsworth.

Also and much more importantly if you are going to snatch people and seemingly ban them then sooner or later you mugs your are gonna get filled in , especially when you say things like come back next week and appologise to me and then i'll see if i'll let you back in .

My mate has a 9am with Ron Martin tomorrow.

These so called security are just hired thugs who thrive on being bully's and i for one hope somebody really hammers them soon.

And then you have Norwich fans standing on the advertising boards when they scored, where they thrown out ? Of course they wernt.

We treat our own fans like scum.

My mate has a 9am with Ron Martin tomorrow.

Get him to ask Ron where his blogs are

I was asked on a few occasions to sit down, and I look over to the away supporters, and they are all standing up, do the stewards do something about it? NO COURSE THEY DONT!

The security and stewards who work in the stadium apart from the North Bank work for Southend United, while the Stewards/security who work in the North Bank are supplied by an outside agency. I can not answer for the actions of the stewards in the west bank, I also did not see the incident as I spent the second half sitting in the car park. However I did see a couple of youngsters (young teenagers)being escorted out of the stadium who insulted the security all the way to the doors, and security were giving grief back. A bit embarrassing as security were 2 adults who are also doormen.
As for the away supporters standing, there is no way we are going to get them to sit, without world war three breaking out every week and as most of us believe in letting the supporters enjoy the game instead of being mini Hitlers, we don't interfere

Maybe it should be the same rule for Home and Away fans then?? Should it not???

Yes it should, it really should but some people when they have security jackets think they can get away with murder.

i'm the bloke tommys talking about and i can confirm i did nothing. yes i was standing along with every one else.

they pulled me out for no reason at all. and said your out. i asked what the hell had i done wrong. they just said they didnt need to tell me anything and i would get a letter.

and how am i going to get a letter you don't know my name address or anything. they started to get agressive and swearing at me just for asking why they are chucking me out. i asked the guys name (the security guard with the clipboard) and he said joe ****ing bloggs. he then said to leave or he would make me leave. so i walked away and they started grapping my arm and trying to drag me out when i was already walking out.

eventually they actually told me i was getting chucked out because i was swearing at a steward and being agreesive towards him. fact is i didn't even speak to a steward.

if i had caused trouble i would accept being chucked out. i was with my girlfriend and a few mates not causing trouble.

i walked round to the main office and no one would come down to see me, i had to again get moved away by stewards just because i wanted an explanation,

i was also told after the game they were very physical with a few other people.

end of the day the picked on me because i was only with a few people, they wouldn't have they balls to go to the lot at the back because they know it would kick off.

well they won't be getting away with this. i have been a season ticket holder for years along with mates, dad, sister, brother in law and nepthew. i should not be treating like i was.

they are pumped bouncers looking for a bit of trouble.

Stop moaning. If you don't like it stop going. Have some consideration for other supporters. If you want to stand up go in the away end.

Hold on a moment he was standing with the rest of us and not blocking ANYBODYS view - its people with your attitude that has killed the atmosphere at every ground in the country!

So you think its fair for the home fans, at their own ground, to be treated worse than the away fans? and whats the problem youve got with supporters standing?

Because I can't see.

I think all seating has more to do with it.

 

[BesideTheSeaside]

Bring back terrace.

Security are melts.

The Leicester game sums it up for me. As soon as it kicked off, one of these mugs grabbed me and tried to drag me away, but that didn't exactly go to plan...
