Altrincham FC First Team / Re: Young children at the ground.
« on: November 13, 2022, 11:51:13 PM »Just to be clear I don't object to kids running around but there is a health and safety issue. It just needs one accident and a woke parent to put the club in the council's sights again.
And while that was the principal point that Ray made in the opening post on this thread, I know that I'm not alone in getting brassed off with kids running around and screaming, kicking plastic cups up and down the terraces, and generally being a thorough nuisance to everybody within a 30 yard range. I'm sure some fathers bring kids to the game just because Mummy wants a bit of "me time" on Saturday afternoons. I'll take odds that less than 10% of these kids become regular supporters. When they get home they probably can't even tell Mummy if Alty won or not !
Maybe it’s the mum that brings the children to the game while dad has some “me time” as you put it. It is 2022 after all. Maybe mum and dad bring the children to the game and the child wants some “me time” and wants to run about. We have got serious issues if we want to stop children enjoying themselves at football matches
