Popping Ballons

Wed Mar 06, 2013 6:04 pm

The reason balloons were popped is due to the nusiance they cause players, imagine a backpass to Marshall and balloon blows in front of him in split second he kicks balloon instead of ball and we concede own goal and it does happen and before im told im stupid its in refs guidelines and things do happen remember beach ball in liverpool game

The 15 or so semi inflated blue balloons needed popping, looked pathetic.

We can't release Bluebirds so Blue Balloons next best thing, the balloons last were popped just behind me and the crowd was far louder.

People saying stewards were popping them. I actually saw more fans popping them and before you about the red brigade, these were guys wearing blue scarfs

How times change. At the leeds fa cup game we through all our spare change at danny mills legs, he bottled it, he didnt want to know. The stewards and the ref couldnt less. Danny mills did though.

Good idea with the balloons but it is quite cringey at the same time.

In that case how the hell was VT allowed to give out free red scarves? Someone could have easily thrown one and it may have landed around Marshall's neck, putting him off to concede a goal! The scarf may have even choked Marshall to death! Do me a favour, if they were red balloons, they wouldn't have been popped, it's pathetic!

The 20 balloon protest.....pathetic.

Re: Popping Ballons

We had 40 actually.

I appologise if it wasn't enough but it is only the 2 of us that has even bothered with protests in the ground. With my small 'we bleed blue' banner at the first game of the season and us now surfing the massive (stinking) Wembley flag every game.

So if you want better participation, please... join in.

Do you release them one at a time or do you blow them all up and then release them all at the same time?
