grumswall Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 He isn't a member and the banning order is up to the club.What about the other fans round that area who were out of order aswell whats being said about them.I know some of our lot act like idiots at times and they also know that when they do they get dealt with by me and the committtee .I am no trying to be an apologist but do you not think that if I thought any members were acting like what they are accused of then I wouldn't do something about it.I cant say the same for the whole raith support tho.The banning order was by law actually. I will be taking the 6 month ban up with the club though. Ridiculous that they deem that acceptable! Why are you defending him by portioning the blame onto the rest of the fans in the area? He was the only one who raised a chair, ever so eloquently. then attempted to lift a whealie bin on his road back. There were alot more idiots involved but no one else raised something that could be construed as a weapon? -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ro Sham Bo Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 Well at least when the crowd for the next home game struggles to break 1200 we can put it down to all the banning orders handed out on the back of the East Fife match. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo Fife Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 This thread is the gift that keeps on giving. I'm running out of horse pics. 29th December game should be a peach. The Rovers fans should burn an effigy of Santa just to keep things tasty. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donny86 Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 Was it not one of Fifes Finest who ran onto the pitch at Bayview last season? Did you ban him too Quinny? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 Amazing how a single defeat by East Fife seems to break the wee team support. Utterly mental stuff, you'd think you'd never seen your team lose before. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Kebab Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 Am I the only one seriously struggling to see anyone doing a Nazi salute in the videos or pictures?It was witnessed at the time and as it is in the crowd I would think that it is really caught on the CCTV and not the highlight packages!!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, if Dunfermline had that attitude to defeats from us they would have folded years ago!!!How is a life ban from New Bayview a punishment?Have you not seen how we've been playing recently??? I'd be distraught!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Moonster Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 When we hadn't heard from Big Q in a couple of days I thought he had wisely read the comments and headed down the pub till it all blew over. Instead he's back with some absolutely banging whataboutery and made up statements about official complaints. Tremendous. Loving the "he's not a member" chat too. Do Fife's Finest take in membership fees? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's the punishment for holding a chair above your head there I'll open a stall in the home end at the next game and rent one out. I'll clean up financially! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that I felt compelled to launch a chair at anyone right enough, 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, it happened during the McGlynn fracas, that footage is the end of the game!!!If you trawl through the match thread, you'll see it was witnessed by Rover's fans!!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beachbum Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 I can assure you that the very last thing I'll be doing is trawling through the match thread. Thanks for the offer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The boy doing the nazi salute was in front of me and it was aimed (I Hope) at the East Fife head of security who was strutting around like foghorn leghorn I cant possibly condone such an arseholes actions as an older member of the support i find it rather amusing that this has sparked such a vitriolic reaction......Having said that I remember when East Fife Rovers was "the" Fife Derby in the seventies and the shall we say "conflicts" between the support was at an increased level. I have a two inch scar on my forehead which was inflicted by an irn bru bottle that one of the "Buckhind Derry" wanted to share with me. I had just walked up the stairs at the Beveridge Park end when this kind individual shared his wares.....hospital.....stitched ....back for the last twenty minutes and missed all the action on and off the park. Derbys should generate emotions between the fans and bragging rights should be observed.....Dont want to go back to the seventies though.....keep the heed boys.... 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raithie Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 My 2 cents: I'm all for fans being passionate in derby fixtures and whilst this game hasn't really had the same level of bite as games against Dunfermline (at least in my generation) it's certainly now made for an interesting fixture for the rest of the season. Having banter between fans is all well and good, I'm sure we can all agree that the wind up's each set of fans post on here and the verbal ping pong at games is just typical football fan behaviour and nothing personal, but when it extends to people being given banning orders for X, Y and Z then that's when the line has been crossed. I have no ill feelings towards EF, never have. I'd like to think as a group of fans they are people we could mingle with pre-match for a few jars and just talk football and have some friendly banter and after the game take whatever result on the chin. The unfortunate thing is it's not just one fan from Saturday that has let themselves and the club down there appears to have been several foaming at the mouth knuckle draggers that have let the occasion get to them and not have the ability to realise that it's just a game of football and not worth getting yourself in a state over. Over zealous security/stewards, a keeper giving it big licks, losing the game....whilst annoying is not worth getting yourself banned from games for. The way people were acting you'd think we were getting pelted by missiles from the EF end or if some EF fan had waded into the Rovers crowd and started slapping people about. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
