    Last season I was at the home game v st mirren. It was the night game with only 1000 odd there. I was standing in front of the old stand and three lads causing no bother at all were leaning onto / standing close too the wall in front of us next to the pitch. A steward came and told them off for leaning on the wall and to move back from the wall.

    Myself and another supporter questioned it as often we or our kids usually do the same along with many others at games. We didn't exactly get a friendly answer with the reason seemingly being it was for safety.

    If this was for real then there should be big signs all along the wall saying such.

    Just a person looking to boss folk around was how it seemed to me and not very nice for the lads who were doing nothing wrong.

    I took a photo but probably break another ground rule by posting it.

    That's a real shame. As long as you don't own a local health & safety sign making company you would be fine to post it .
