No ticket sales for NW at Edinburgh game (18/3) - ST holders will get their usual seat

Let’s have it right here, and it’s an uncomfortable truth, the lineman’s ONLY gave the first goal on Tuesday because of the intimidation from the fans behind him. Did it overstep the line? Yeah a little but the lads in that section won that game. The club should be thanking them for goodness sake.

Jumping in more than a tad two footed here,  the club couldn't provide enough seats for fans vs Falkirk with silly closures and now there restricting sales further. There will have been fans who brought tickets for the NW,  loved the atmosphere, behaved reasonably and want to come back,   there is a massive risk here that this discourages them returning,  the run in here and the buzz around the club is a fantastic opportunity to grow our fanbase,  hopefully increasing season ticket sales in future.  

Deal with individuals that cross the line,  don't tar everyone with the same brush.

Unless the club has been told/warned, this is their last chance before a stand closure is enforced.  Let’s face it, the SFA/Police would love to have an example to show up to the rest of Scottish football to make others behave, and we would be an easy target.

In reality we must understand that you can’t have fans chucking shoes onto a pitch(for example) and not expect heavy sanctions being imposed on us.  Let’s take a breath here, take it for that one game and not allow behaviour of a few wee fuds acting up for their pals to ruin it for everyone else.

Far too sensible a post.

Doubt the club can point to a single occurrence of any fines forced stand closures etc given out in Scottish football expect when UEFA are involved, it simply does not happen.

Edit,  and if this a police decision/under severe pressure from police they need to say so directly.    Have much more respect if they do so.

Its really quite simple - throwing offensive items ( dangerous ) onto the pitch is ludicrous - only an arseh0le would do such a thing - the apologists who try and justify this are as bad as the perpetrators - get the idiots banned and let Jason and the decent fans get on with building a fantastic atmosphere….

Hardly a surprise, the young are great but its not the first instance of things being thrown.

If you can't go to a game with chucking stuff then its club that's going to get punished. 

Don't be an idiot simple as really. Club had to take some form of action. They aren't victimizing anyone other than folk that have watched these thing's be thrown around them and done nothing about it.

I have no issues with flares but don't put them, vapes, shoes or anything else on the pitch near players or officials.

Why don’t the club just check the CCTV and get a picture of the smoke bomb throwers etc? 
What about if it was ST holders that threw objects? 
Don’t get me wrong it’s stupid to throw objects/ pyrotechnics onto the pitch but stopping a paying customer from entering our most vocal part of the ground for a football match is not right.
