We have at the club a Health & Safety Officer whose job it is to identify such possible dangers
In H&S terms, risk assessment should be an ongoing task
The club should know about it as they are the ones operating the site [not knowing is no excuse]
With what Animal has highlighted the club should embark immediately on a full site risk assessment & if they are incapable get some company in who are capable
We'll see what response Animal gets & see if the safety issue is ignored

Issue regarding today if you ask me. Not one mention from any Barnsley fc fan about Tommy Wright and his alleged down pricing (price fixing ) of Barnsley fc players. Isn't this a talking point as this is happening today.
Animal - sorry I didn’t comment further. All this getting ready for tomorrow and keeping my day job is challenging 😉
Nice one you reported it, shame it was a ‘let them know’. How does anyone know that it got back to the safety officer? Is there an email or recorded method so they have to action your sighting? I’d look out next home game, take pictures and report again. You can always go to the health and safety executive and they can do a spot check on the club. I know it might seem harsh but if they have nothing to hide then they would welcome it.
Bet you can’t tell I work in construction ha ha.
I think that is exactly right Marcelle
Without wishing to put on Animal any further I think it would be politic to confirm his visit with an E mail
There are very few organisations that will follow his visit up & an E mail would leave a trail
If the SO is worth his salt he will contact Animal assuming the lady on reception made a note of Animal's details
I may be wrong but on that score I wouldn't hold my breath
Bang on exile! It’s all hear say at minute unless there is a recorded method. In court or to the HSE it wouldn’t stand as it’s a ‘he said’ ‘she said’ - scenario.
I really applaud animal for reporting it but as a company who have a safety certificate to accommodate 22k plus, they must record this and feed back to animal at least. I suggest people record this at each home game and if it repeats, report it again and tell them it’s been reported before! Failing that do it again and escalate it further.
Send them to me if you want, I’ll take it on 😉
