Hello Fans, I am a Doncaster fan who visited on saturday. I must thank you all for your friendly welcome and send off. My concerns are that whilst there I photo'd and my friend videod the stewards at the final wistle.
2 fans ran onto the pitch, Yes they shouldnt have been on there, but at one point 8 stewards had the fan, and our footage shows a steward pulling the fan to the ground with his hair!
Irrespective.....thats assult. Does anyone know the fan in question? He might like our footage.
All the best for next season

send me your email I'll send it when Ive heard from the police twitter thing. TaI know him personally, can you pm the video to me please?
i really would like to know who briefs / instructs the orange response persons,
i have continually witnessed utterly provocative & senseless actions,
& then to confound matters they, yesterday, proceeded to act like playground bullies,
then an ambulance was called to attend to a green steward who got showered with water,
dangerous stuff that water,
perhaps they might like to think over the fact that next season fewer stewards will be required,
apart from which they have earned the reputation of being the worst stewards around the leagues,
PUSB & don't alienate fans through thug tactics
Back at Highfield Rd it was a guy called Bob Rankin. He was a former police chief & his directive at all games was about deflaming any potential situation.
It seems the complete opposite now.
50% of stewards are power hungry morons, the other 50% are City fans who just want to watch the game for free.
This obviously doesn't help things.
59% of stewards are power hungry morons and the other 46% are just City fans who want to watch the game for free.
Ohh. ...and stewards can't count properly.
What about the 46% who only take the job to get 'food hoovering rights' at the food counters?
If you're ever in the concourse at the point in time the food-serving operations shut-up shop, it's awash with piggy-handed, red-faced obese buffoons in various shades of day-glow; with their swollen, gargoylian faces contorted with joy at the notion of free pies. Then scurrying off, beetle-like to empty their stuffed pockets of pastry-based snacks ahead of working off their feast by picking on one of CCFC's paying customers.
For every good one - there's two bad

Does anyone know what actual legal authority stewards have to restrain and in some cases assult paying supporters?
Even if someone has done something wrong what right do stewards have to dish out punishment? Surely if there is crowd trouble and illegal behavour going on it should be down to the police to control?
What ever happened to the friendly stewards who were fans and whose main job was helping people find their seat & assisting the disabled fans?

Clubs use stewards as they are cheaper option to the Police. I have been told that one van load of coppers costs the club about 6 grand per game
£6k? There are only about 10 in a van, so that's £600 per piggy. Much cheaper to get them from here: http://www.crackinpigroast.co.uk/
