Forza Stasi

Quite worrying Andy that anyone is taken in by this crock of shit !
Perfect Forze Nerde fodder, they don't even require brain washing.
God give me strength.

The same way that standing permanently in block 15 was not allowed, but in Geekfest block 3, it is positively encouraged. It stinks.

If the banner had said "FLETCH IS GOD", would it have been removed? Would it fok.

The selective propaganda machine is alive and well at Home Park.

I would imagine so. Most of them that are ordere online have the certificate. It's just like the one you get on a sofa. Just a label.

What a bellend of a comment. Has it really come to checking the fire resistance ratings of banners? You've already been laughed off Pasoti with this one. Is there a special section for polyester?

If the banner was "in Fletch we trust" it would have been displayed.

1. The cheapest tickets in the country
2. 250 staff
3. 8,000 budgeted figure

This club becomes a bigger and bigger laughing stock every single day.

and you are a lapdog.

What a joke, surprised there wasn't more chants and abuse to be honest

On chat I said I would give the stewards a good ruck if they wanted the banner that badly, I think you stated what I wished to say more eloquently, we shouldn't put up with this shit, the trouble is by boycotting the game we have no voice where it matters. Maybe the next home game we should swell the ranks and let our feelings be known?

There's only so long that the nerds can silence the disent.

Soon there will be too many people voicing desent for the crappy drum to drown them out.

To be fair the lads with the flag were holding their own against the Steward....it was only when some knobber from F NERD wearing some kind of stupid bush-tucker type hat came bouncing over and started to verbally abuse them for exercising their democratic right that the flag was removed.
If anything/anyone should have been removed it should have been the tw@t in the Hat

Good avatar

Forza Verde have served their brain washed purpose today.

Yep i stumbled across it on fb/ some french thingy...perhaps we could Photoshop it to green

Bullshit.

A cheap polyester flag when you apply a flame to it is gonna melt. Not a fire hazard in the slightest, your cotton clothing is more of a fire hazard, so lets all get naked in case we cause a fire. Can you point me to the ground rules that show it?

Punchdrunk you found a gem in your avatar


Mods we need this in thought of the day

The funny thing is of course that the removal of a banner from a few 12 year olds and the drumming over of one anti Fletch song has resulted in uproar here and a 7 page thread on Pasoti.

Like all regimes that try to silence the masses the thing they don't realise is that they are simply fuckwits.

If there had been no action at the game it would have read - club sinking has one banner and a couple of anti manager chants. So what...? In that position, so they should. Job done, game over, but no...we have this.

Compared to the Steve Kean thing which I thought was over the top it's a joke. same result overall though, Blackburn got rid of Kean when they wanted, Brent will get rid of fletcher when he wants. It'll be soon I reckon, this can't go on.

@pafclad I absolutely loved your drumming today when they started to chant fletcher out!

Another deluded idiot who would rather praise a vain tosser who tried to drown out fans like he's something special and see his club continue to fall from grace than rise up and speak out. Sign of a weak minded individual,

Presumably each set of away fans is contacted in advance by the club, and told to bring proof that their banners are fire-safety compliant? Am I allowed to call this spin about banner removal a crock of shit?

Surely it goes to figure that anyone who has a banner would be aware of the requirement anyway?? Not being pedantic just asking and fwiw I don't agree with it being taken away. It's a disgrace.

So once again Rapson...where was the safety certificate for this?

Just to put a little bit of actual perspective to this thread as most of the people commenting probably didn't go. The actual 'incident' took about one and a half minutes; some lads took out a banner, an old fella confronted them and there was a bit of verbals and then the red coated steward made the lads put it away. I doubt many people even noticed it (there weren't many of us in the ground) and it was a small banner so I doubt you'd be able to even read it from the Directors Box anyway.

Here's a pic for you - the banner I've highlighted in the red box.

There's a lot of bollocks on this thread with people claiming there's some kind of North Korean thing going on within the ground - there isn't at all and the general consensus is that none of us are happy - I didn't hear very much support at all yesterday but there was noticeable dissent.

And Rapson, what the hell are you on about?! You're an utter mental if you think you need a certificate to unfurl a banner. It might be technically correct but in reality, it's ridiculous. It's a public order offence to shout obscenities so (technically) there should have been 3,000+ arrests yesterday. Get a brain Rapson.

The bucket rattling culture has reached epidemic proportions. They just can't stop themselves.

Everyone knows someone doing Movember ffs. If we want to give to charity we will, without the help of these bucket junkies. Give it a rest superfans...

I haven't commented on this thread yet, but Hairy are you saying that a banner wasn't unfurled saying Fletcher Out, and somebody in a cowboy hat didn't have a go at the people with the banner and then a steward came and made them take it down or took it off them?

I've read threads on here and Pasoti which all say a similar thing happened, so is it Ok for these people to stand all game without being touched or bothered by the stewards, but unfurling a small banner is not acceptable to the Forza Verde so they get it taken away? It sounds a bit North Korean to me.

It did happen Jock but it wasn't exactly up there with the guy in front of the tank in China protest - it was a bit of a rubbish protest banner and a bit of a brief exchange of words between old man in big hat and a few youths and then the red coated man asked them to remove it and they did. It wasn't some astounding event is all I am saying and I doubt many people even noticed it.

I think using comparisons with North Korea and the SS and Fascism and Stalinism is in pretty poor taste given that we're comparing some youths with a badly made banner being asked to put it away and people being tortured to death for their political opinions.
