Pathetic stewards

[Allez Allez Allez]

We must have the most horrible, boorish,humourless robotic bunch of stewards in the country.
Last week at the Reading game a female steward told off Bartley Bluebird, and a mother & son taking a selfie for standing in the aisle.
Then today, behind the family stand where the velcro dartboard is (they kick velcro footballs at it) they was no one supervising like normal so a group of kids were having a kick about, just having a laugh. What happens a steward (another woman) took the balls away.

Have these people ever had fun?

Are they like this at other grounds?

I hate them with a passion.

The reason that they were told off was that they were blocking an aisle.

The reason the kids had the balls taken off them was that someone could have got hurt.

It's health and safety. And it seems you have more of an issue that the two stewards were women than anything else.

Please tell us you’re not being serious and that the OPs underlying concern has by passed you

The stewards are there to do a job. They go through training. I'd assume there is a good reason for not blocking up an aisle, and for notletting kids kick balls around a stadium unsupervised. I fail to see what the OPs underlying concern is, other than his apparent fixation with the gender of the steward that did her job to the letter.

I remember years back going up to watch us at Oldham (the day we thumped them 7-1!)
I only decided last minute to go up and hadn't bought a ticket. I must have got there early just as they opened the ground,.I always love that feeling when you go to a ground for the first time , walk up the steps and take in the view . I did that at Oldham. I was the only person in the whole end, when a steward came over and asked me to move as I couldn't stand in the aisle for health and safety reasons.
I laughed and asked him who I was making it dangerous for, only to be told if I carried on with that attitude he'd eject me from the ground.
I went back down behind the stand, got my ticket stamped and found a pub for an hour instead. Came back for kick off and enjoyed the Andy Campbell show even more just for that turd of a steward.

Are you a steward in disguise?
