Can't we put those little chip things in people that they have for dogs? Then they would set off an alarm at the turnstile.
I did some interesting work with glass at universitiy. We looked at slowly dissolving glass as a way of releasing vitamins and minerals slowly over time into the stomachs of sheep. When the glass ball dissolved to a certain size it passed harmlessly out of the gut. We could do the same thing with trouble causing rabble, give them a glass ball with a chip in it. After 12 months the ball would have reduced in size and would pass out. If you added vitamins then it could also help with the p!$$ poor diet these people usually seem to have.

It's a win-win as far as I can see.

Back in the early 90s we were offered proximity readers for access control that had as an option transmitters that were bonded into small glass beads of the type that are now used for dog micro chipping - the manufacturers were actually seriously suggesting that a similar thing could be done with human employees.

The manufacturers were Chinese though.

Message to those who think this is a forum to joke about this - when and if you ever have children of your own you will understand that it isn't a joke having to put up with this rubbish.

Been there, done that, 'twas ever the same.

Its really easy for an organisation to talk about doing things, far harder to actually do those things, especially when additional expense is involved.

I know kick off time was probably dictated by the T20 game that wasn't but whoever thought it would be a good idea needs sacking. RL is a family game and this is the second game in a row where there has been trouble in the same area and children have been caught up in the middle of it.

Message to Mr Hetherington - come up with appropriate KO times (anyone could have forecast the outcome of this one), stop using stewards who actually run away at the first sight of trouble (they haven't got the gumption to take action), stop selling tickets on the day to away supporters for the North Stand (or perhaps only sell them to adults accompanying children - not that that would have saved the idiot from Huddersfield who started a fight on his own with his kids sitting next to him) and start enforcing the rules with regard to language.

What was wrong with the Kick Off time?

Bars open at 11, Kickoff not until 6.

7 hours drinking for a group of neanderthals not used to having more than 2 shandy's.
