Anyone have any issues with stewarding and searching at the turnstiles today? If so, please DM me.
Thanks

Everyone can see you!Put a hi viz jacket on and ……
It's a condition of entry. Same with a night club or pub with door staff. Not saying they should or shouldn't be searching fans btw but that's the legal basis for it. The venue is under their control and a condition of entry is that you have to be searched. It's absolutely your right to deny the search but it'd also be their right to deny entry if you did.Funny how there are law for the police doing it, altbough that’s regularly ignored if you are black or young… but any old bod can suddenly start feeling your nether regions outside a turnstile? I’d love to know the perceived legal basis.
We got a bottle of ‘ made at home ‘ diluted apple juice confiscated , as the seal on the bottle had been broken and they claimed it could contain alcohol. Yeah right, my boy is only 7 !It’s wrong on so many levels. And so is not allowing food & drinks inside. Most would still be prepared to buy stuff inside the stadium anyway. At least they would do if they could move the queues on quicker and not run out of stock. Family club, my arśe
This is strange.I have an issue . It's because of stupid supporters taking in smoke bombs and flairs into the ground and I don't see a problem with a quick search . What my problem is ,is that the bloke that searched me hardly touched me and it was obvious he did not want to find anything . I don't see the point in it ,if not done to a decent standard.
Other parents with kids seem to buy refreshments up and down the country at cinemas, theme parks, soft-play areas etc. Odd that it's such a big deal for you.We got a bottle of ‘ made at home ‘ diluted apple juice confiscated , as the seal on the bottle had been broken and they claimed it could contain alcohol.

I’d happily buy drinks inside, but looking after two kids, carrying an armful of coats , scarves etc, whilst trying to take a photo of them with Bloomfield Bear and juggling refreshments with no lids on them is F£*KING IMPOSSIBLE.
its not a big deal buying refreshments , the issue is taking the lids off the bottles upon purchase at the kiosk that’s the ball ache!Other parents with kids seem to buy refreshments up and down the country at cinemas, theme parks, soft-play areas etc. Odd that it's such a big deal for you.
A ball ache you will get at every football stadium in the country. You keep whining about it and it's getting pretty boring.its not a big deal buying refreshments , the issue is taking the lids off the bottles upon purchase at the kiosk that’s the ball ache!
It's not every ground though.A ball ache you will get at every football stadium in the country. You keep whining about it and it's getting pretty boring.
Funny that when the young girl approached me after frisking the old men in the queue I just stood still and didn’t say a word, just kind of stared in astonishment at her.
She just stopped and said ok if you’ve nothing in your pockets just go in. Didn’t make any sense to me?
I was wondering if it was a reciprocal thing. She would frisk me a bit, I would frisk her a bit??
Pretty sure they’re not allowed to frisk your minor sonMe and my 15 year old were frisked.

They just don’t really have any common sense, fair enough search lads in the north who look 18-40 which btw im in that category, but do people in there 60s and 70s and parents with young children really need frisking ?I had a backpack with my travel clothes in (non tangerine for Huddersfield and Bradford) and my coat had two poachers pockets with my wallet and phone in , I always open my bag for them to see in, and was given a quick frisk by an older bloke. I personally cannot see any problem. Nothing to hide, nothing to worry about.
Where did you hide your chips?I declined a search today and was told I wouldn’t be allowed in the ground, just ignored him and walked in anyway. I’d object to a copper wanting to search me never mind an 18 year old youth from Preston’s finest security company, wasn’t having finding my bottle of water with its cap still intact on me ….
I get the check bags & rucksacks etc but the frisk the fans decision just serves to wind people up and serves no purpose or good …
Only by Critchley.With there being pre-match frisking, was there also post-match fisting?

I think they have to search everyone equally, if they’re seen to target one group based on age, gender.. it opens them up to a bit of a minefield however based on fact it may be that lads in their twenties and thirties are more likely to have something on them than someone’s GrandadThey just don’t really have any common sense, fair enough search lads in the north who look 18-40 which btw im in that category, but do people in there 60s and 70s and parents with young children really need frisking ?
I don't have a problem with being searched I do have a problem with queuing up to get to the front then being told that this is a woman only line and you have to go to the next turnstile and queue again .then when I finally get to the front of this line the steward waves his hands around me .we must be employing jedi warriors as they you the force!! What's the point....Anyone have any issues with stewarding and searching at the turnstiles today? If so, please DM me.
Thanks
Sounds like you have a problem with women in positions of authority.Down to Natalie the fish head, what she does need to do is have a word with the steward in the north stand who nearly caused eruptions the way he treated that young lad, it’s the second time he’s caused issues, last time was about R bringing in a bag of chips, this time a vape, he’s a big lump but the bigger they are the harder they fall.
