Gribz 743 Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 PC Britain gone mad. http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/west-ham-fan-barred-stoke-1750136 A fan was barred from a Premier League ground â?? because his newspaper was branded a weapon. Security guards at Stoke City ordered stunned West Ham supporter Chris Barmby, to bin it, claiming he might set it on fire and start a riot. Ex-fireman Chris, 57, of Claines, Worcs, said: â??It was ridiculous. They were letting in fans with programmes. What is stopping someone setting light to a club programme? The worst thing was I hadnâ??t even read it. â??Iâ??ve been following football for years and years and I have never heard anything so ridiculous.â? No one at Stokeâ??s Britannia Stadium was available for comment. Newspapers are not on its website list of banned items, but it states that any article that might be used as a weapon and/or compromise public safety would not be allowed into the ground. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
