Stewards scared of Evan's foul mouth

[Elite_Pie]

I would ask why nobody reported him to the police? As Steward says, the stewards have limited powers (unless you are 10 and standing up) so bypass them and force the police to do something.

Drama queen reaction and a step too far in my opinion. While Steve Evans probably goes a bit OTT, I prefer a manager who shows a bit of passion to the McParland type just standing there with arms folded. The reduced crowd probably made it a bit more audible last night, and it's true that kids shouldn't have to hear that kind of thing, but surely the police have more important things to do?

All Plod had to do was tap him on the shoulder and suggest he moderate his language, two minutes of old fashioned police work. If the steward thought if necessary to complain to the officials and nothing happened then escalate it or shut up in the first place. It would be drama queen if some oik was giving out the verbals in the middle of town so why should that behaviour be acceptable in the football ground?

I will openly admit that when I'm in a football ground I swear and curse at random individuals (like referees and opposing players) which is behaviour I have never exhibited in the middle of town despite copious amounts of alcohol. That's the trouble with you bloody PC do-gooders, you want to remove the passion and sanitise everything (snigger).

There were no police on duty last night, as I've said it's down the the officials to sort. And a word in his shell like worked as he wasn't to bad 2nd half.

C'mon now - the officials are there to ... , well, to officiate. They could simply have carried out their duties by telling him to STFU or send him to the stands. They chose, for whatever reason, not to on this occasion. His team won - he'll feel justified in his actions.

Yes, painting their nails, wearing high heels and catching motorists. Morons.

I agree, but that's what you get with 7 years of Tory rule.

It’s still better than 40 years of Marxist terrorist anti capitalist labour scum.

Amazed nobody has mentioned Evans repugnant asst Raynor who`s first explosion of abuse at the 4th official was approx. 30 secs into the game!
Why are they allowed to get away with it?
