Sunderland is a complete and utter joke the upper tier was an afterthought, added on at a later date where to access the allocated seats you have to climb 12 flights of stairs with not a single lift [ how the hell did they get planning permission for that ] and would you believe that used to include the disabled fans [ that only changed when the disabled section of the FSA threatened to sue them ] They use those seats for the away fans because they know the home fans wouldn't pay full money to sit in them.32mile_cul-de-sac wrote: ↑Thu Oct 27, 2022 12:07 pm throwing objects is not just happening at Barrow.
Burnley have apologised for the "unacceptable behaviour" of some of their fans in the win at Sunderland.
Saturday's match was briefly halted in the first half because missiles were being thrown from the upper tier of the stand housing Burnley supporters.
It is understood an eight-year-old was injured.
The Clarets said an investigation into the incident is ongoing and "anyone caught throwing objects will be liable to a banning order".
"The club will not let the actions of any individuals spoil, affect, or jeopardise the enjoyment of all our supporters, who have been magnificent all season," Burnley added.
"We offer our sincere apologies to Sunderland Football Club and to any supporters who may have been affected by this on the weekend."
Burnley as a club aren't entirely blameless either, they charge the full rate to sit in a stand with awful facilities [ compared to the other 3 sides of the ground ] because they know full well there is a market for people who want to sit up against the away fans and get involved in the banter etc that goes on and what really makes me laugh is their stance on racism when they knew full well the political views of a large section of their fans that just a decade ago the fans of their club were electing BNP councilors. It's purely gesturing to please the woke shits who've infiltrated the EFL who should keep their noses out of stuff like that and who should concentrate on running a football league where half its clubs aren't in immediate danger of going bust.
This is interesting-tell me more!
