I hope barnet arent afforded any niceties on Saturday and are housed where they should be.

In addition, Kenny said he has been given a banning order which prohibits him from being in the town centres of Grimsby and Cleethorpes for four hours either side of a home match.

He is also banned from attending any home or away game until the matter has been resolved, he added.

It's pretty disgusting that he can be treated like that before he's even found guilty!

[Beaver]

Fair play to the Grimsby fans, travelling in numbers and having a great time, looks like a right laugh!

[Hemel Alty]

Odious club. They seem to be totally at odds with whats needed for modern stewarding/policing, adopting the mindset that every one is to be treated as a troublemaker. Situations like that need to be stewarded with a smile but with a readiness to react of things get out of hand - much as the policing of the Notting Hill Carnival has evolved.
Even if it means we have to go to Barnet again next season, I really hope Bristol Rovers go up.

[Hamilton]

There was a giant c*ck there (and an inflatable willy!)

And on the Grimsby forum there are several messages praising the Barnet stewards for their handling of what was a very difficult afternoon for them.

ob1, don't suppose you're a Barnet fan by any chance?

The police need to get a grip of reality. I presume this hasn't reached the CPS yet who no doubt will decide there's insificient evidence. What a waste of taxpayers money let alone the inconvenience of the guy having to travel back to Hendon if he is summonsed to court. It's a football match, after a goal a steward gets a light inflatable touch him, grow up.

...and in the context of that reaction at Worcester the other, ludicrous.

The abject treatment of the Alty diehards at The Hive this season isn't really the fault of the Barnet fans though, is it?

Wouldn't it be better to direct your ire at Barnet's Board of Directors and, in particular, the club's hypersensitive Chairman?

[Mrs Warbouys]

We were treated like thugs, falsely questioned by police for fabricated stories of drug taking and shown no welcome,just distain by their safety officer. We had the supporters coach rifled through during the game by police. whats good for the goose is good for the gander, Most of this inside the stadium was witnessed by officals from our club. I'll be furious if they get welcomed like long lost friends.They should be shown the minimum in hospitality and their supporters should be on the away end, simple.

Talking of Barnet officials, I found this interesting piece about the late Stan Flashman:

When you read pieces like this, it amazes me that we don't see more clubs going bust.

I never minded Barnet in the 80s. When I first watched "Gola League" football, they were very much the poor relations of Wealdstone and Enfield.

[Hemel Alty]

Assuming they fail to get promoted, maybe we shouldn't bother turning up at the Hive next season. A loss of 150 x £18 plus a huge bill to police and cater for a non existent away crowd might be the best protest (although I realise it wouldn't help our team).

I'd be very dissapointed if we as a club chucked 2 fans out for no reason and unneeded drug search on a fan went on we should treat their fans correctly not no tit for tat nonsense

[Mrs Warbouys]

Yes agree, correctly,so chequers end it is
