[quote="Royal Lady"][quote="Jerry St Clair"][quote="Royal Lady"]There's an old grandad steward in Y24/25 who insists on waving his hand about and telling people to sit down. He dobbed on some guy who I think was in the back row of Y24 this afternoon. 2 Orange Tangos went and called him out the row and he ended up following them downstairs and I didn't see him again. Anyone know what he was doing to get pulled out? When the stewards in the away end manage to get away fans to sit down all game, I'll listen to the stewards in our end. I have never seen anyone persistently stand and yet as soon as someone stands cos of a bad ref decision or foul or an exciting point in the game, they get all "jobsworth". :roll:[/quote]

You mean the black fella who was taken out?

He was about 5 or 6 seats along from me. No idea what he did. It certainly wasn't for persistent standing because nobody persistently stood today.

Perhaps the tangos are just racist bastards?[/quote]That's the one. Pathetic. :roll: Whilst trying to get to our turnstiles yesterday we had to walk past a queue of Charlton fans who were blocking the width of the pavement, as we went to walk through a gap in the queue another jobsworth steward told us we couldn't walk through and we had to walk round. We couldn't walk round, however, as the queue of Charlton supporters was so long. So we ended up just walking through another gap in the queue, which then meant we had to walk in the roadway until being able to get past them and back on the pavement. Another flaming steward then told us off for "walking in the road". The road had no cars driving in it, it is the bit of road infront of the East Stand and by the Burger Bar outside Y24. :roll:[/quote]


I was right by this when you were not allowed to walk through the gap to be fair two reasoin or this:
1)Police were carefully watching theese fans as they wallked beetween that gap and could see clear views of faces.
2)After Chealsea the stewards are making sure no objects are taken in and need to check the away supporters so they make them que up to get checked before going in.So to stop people sneaking in round the side they make everyone walk round.[/i]

I see Reading are advertising for Stewards again. As I am too nasty to be a Traffic Warden, too fat to be a referee, deaf blind and stupid should I apply.

SIT DOWN!!

Just practicing

[East Stand Steward]

We have a tough job and will ban people at a moments notice.

This is for the good of the club ok

Give us a break

What about Clive Dunn as the new steward for Y24 though
Anytime something happened it took him about 10 minutes to get up the steps

Just adding to that, most reading fans are nice, polite, friendly and co-operate. Basically they think they can push us around. Its about time fans and the fans around you started standing up against this hitler regime put in place by the club officials. Its pathetic. Remember when we played millwall 5/6 years ago and they were being a bit naughty. The OB tried to go in and arrest two wall fans, but the entire away end stood in front and wouldn't move out the way, therefore forcing the police to give up and walk off. Exactly how it should be done. Stick up for the fans around you and stand upto this ridiculous over zealous stewarding policy.
