I expect I am not alone in noticing the group of 10 or so 11/12 year olds who stayed at the away end to offer abuse to the Southport fans at the start of the second half. A couple of the knobs were sporting Stone Island and clearly thought that they offered some sort of threat. They got shepherded by one(!) of our stewards back to the Golf Road end where they were kept an eye on. However, as I was driving away at the end of the match, they had congregated on the grass outside the shops and were gesturing towards the away support; a couple of police cars had parked either side of the supporters coach as well.
I have no idea whether there was any nonsense, but the possibility of Alty finding itself with a group of pre-pubescent pretend hooligans is, frankly, depressing.
-
Not sure if they are the same kids but there were a few black hoodie/cap wearing kids at Halifax on Saturday.
-
Yes, I saw them too. They may have been the same lot, but there were a few more of them today (obviously, given that it was at home).
-
so these 10 or 11 year olds are knobs are they?
Why don't you go and have word with them if they are so offensive to you?
- rather than whinge behind your keyboard.

- rather than whinge behind your keyboard....and you are doing what exactly?
When you have a point to make, let me know.
-
We are going to get relegated,we have a chairman who couldn't give a f**k hence his appointment of Tolson and your more worried by youngsters putting v's up at the away fans
-
and we have forum members who spout utter sh*te like that!
ie the chairman bit - the relegated bit is entirely possible
-
They're kids. They know no better. They aren't a big deal and quite frankly we should all be concerned about other things. Grow a pair.

its spot on mate it isn't utter sh*t

We love washing our laundry in public don't we they are kids

They'll turn out like the Haribo Kids at Colwyn Bay if we're not careful. Best bet would be for a proper team of thugs from one of the bigger clubs to give them a good hiding.

They were literally about 12-13 years old. They need a bit of a scare, but a good hiding? Jesus Christ.

Ithink macc idiots came close to giving them a hiding the other week if it was the same kids.

You seriously think the man gives up all his time for a club that he doesn't care about and he appointed Tolson because he couldn't be bothered to find anyone else. Do you really believe that, honestly?
-
Yes

that is not the case what I heard other way around

It needs our own fans to have a word before it does get out off hand.there are two sections of new fans the young ones you are talking about .but there is also a group of 15/18 year olds who were going to cause trouble at away end after game that is why police and stewards were there.

You do? Why would any sane human being do that? If he didn't care, he wouldn't be giving up so much of his time would he, he'd have resigned and buggered off - it's not like he's making any money out of it is it?
-
Yes
I have to agree we took the easy option no doubt in that

I wouldn't call the chairman's work ethic into question but I'm afraid that his swift and bewildering promotion of Tolson looks like sheer cronyism in action to me.

if they are committing offences then as you say report this the police or stewards otherwise this is all a bit embarrassing

When I drove past after the game the police had truncheons out on the macc fans trying to keep them away from alty kids

Some people on here must have lived very, very sheltered lives.

I wasn't trying to defend the appointment I was originally pointing out that suggesting "the chairman doesn't care" was talking utter sh*te and I stand by my assertion that no sane person can genuinely believe he doesn't care.

Well get me sectioned Bath Alty
-
Wayno not embarrassing at all as I am a steward who was asked to see what the older section off these lads were up to I then informed safety officer off the problem which was going to occur at end of match . One day it will kick off at the ground. With these lads if you want to.
Have a word with me at any you know me Phil. Boyne

well if you have reported them mate then it sounds like you have done the right thing. I just think things like this are best dealt with that way confidentially rather than drag the name of the club into it

About time we had a proper firm. The one bright spot in an otherwise rather dour season. 8)

Get Trucker to scare them like he scared the Haribo kids at Colwyn Bay.

I think some idiot has been listening to the stories of the 1970's without realising that society has moved on.

Society has moved on in some respects but football, especially at this level, remains a working class pass time. You can't expect pampered posh kids to turn up at Moss Lane, but while we're on the subject I'd like to point out that there are hundreds of youngsters at the games who are as sound as anything. I'd say it's the main reason for the attendance increases and it's a testament to the youth work the club are doing in the community. It isn't, as you'd probably expect given the talk on here, a mass invasion of yobs. Then again things only get put on here if it's worth a bit of a moan.
There are going to be a few little muppets. They'll grow out of it and hopefully they'll become part of the hardcore support. That's how it works at every club in this league, literally every single one has a group of kids that tries winding you up. Not once have any of us felt the need to come on here and have a moan about it, because they're kids and that's that. Some of our fans are so wrapped up in cotton wool.

I bet you support mob culture that green street has encouraged. Posting from behind a username, very big of you.

I think pseudonyms are offensive and have no place on this forum.

I'm not sure Iv been an away match where youngsters haven't gave you a f**k off sign when they have took the lead

I won't as I won't be able to as I live to far away to go northern Leauge away matches

One from the same group lobbed an empty Pepsi can on the pitch into the away goal mouth a few home games back, keeper lobbed it back to side. I went down and had a quiet word and basically said look lads that isn't acceptable. I would say this is a bit more serious than flicking v's at away supporters. If an injury was to become from such a stupid act it could cost the club some serious £££

Well said Blackpool alty our fans seem to forget about the fines the club can get from theses idiots.

I'm with you on that. Because that's not acceptable. Some idiot (and I don't think he was art of this group, he looked about 15-16) was throwing mini-eggs in the golf road end against Aldershot. I don't know whether he was aiming at home fans or the away keeper but a quiet word and looking mildly intimidating soon stopped it.
I'm with Crowthers Immune System on this one. Kids will be kids and as long as it's just hand gestures and a few verbals it's fine. People moan that crowds are dwindling and we don't see a return for the effort put into publicity. The fact is, at this stage it's mainly going to be the youth that are attracted to Moss Lane. They'll grow out of it.
-
There are dozens of us willing to have a word with them in instances like that, myself included because its not on and I definitely agree with your concerns there. You'll just find that kids are generally like that these days, especially when they're out as a group like that. So for all we've wanted them to start coming through the turnstiles, we have to afford them the opportunity to be kids and let them make those mistakes.
I've seen Stuart Coburn nearly have his head taken off by a bottle of coke at Wrexham. I've seen coins lobbed at our players once or twice. That last thing I want is for people to think I'm advocating that sort of behaviour, I just think we're experiencing something that's probably within the norms of football at this level and its really, really not worth almost four pages of forum discussion given the current circumstances we're in.
-
The throwing of mini eggs is disgusting and willful
I could have eaten them
-
These young kids are the future of Alty and their support. We should be thankful that they are turning up to the games. Every club has kids like these on a lot worse scale. Think we need to concentrate on trying to stay in this league rather than a pointless topic. Got bigger worries than a few kids messing about at games!

Spot on. There are more important Alty things to worry about at the present time than recent issues such as youthful exuberance or scousers getting wet.
