cumnockbear 2,446 Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 They should be allowed, it adds a bit of atmosphere to the shitey wee stadiums we visit, only in Scotland we're offended by flares. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

IanFerguson2013 396 Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 Flares are actually dangerous. Set one off, some wee kid gets burned, scarred for life etc etc, They are illegal and unwanted by most level headed fans. If you want flares ask yourself a few questions. Start with 2 + 2 perhaps.

PRW. 5,631 Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 Zzzzzzzzzzzz. No it is not, can the myth of points docked etc stop being peddled? Whats that, 4 or 5 years now that smoke bombs have been consistently let off in Scottish football? No fines. No punishments. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForeverBlue1872 463 Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 Well the authorities will have to punish other clubs fans from doing the same. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether they should or shouldn't doesn't matter though. They are banned and we could face a fine now because of these boys. Hardly what King and the board want to be putting their money too.

The taigs and other wee shitey clubs around Scotland have been letting them off for years, nothing handed to them. Morton fans do it quite alot and it isnt even reported Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tannerall 25,935 Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 Yeah, they were a really bad idea. Used to trail down past the platform shoes and soak up all the pish. But they were handy though for hiding two cans of beer or a half bottle in each sock going through the turnstyle into the match. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMotor 2,208 Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 I just don't get the argument that they add to the atmosphere. I stopped finding coloured smoke exciting when I was about 7. Good football, chanting, singing and a decent amount of bitter hatred make for a good atmosphere. If you get a woody from coloured smoke, go and hold your cigarette up in front of some traffic lights. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

siddiqi_drinker 14,635 Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 Dangerous and if the police can confiscate booze they should be easily able to stop the pyrotechnics being taken into the ground. As usual action will only be taken after someone is seriously injured. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
