Only thought in the stewards head is 'free pie'

I may be wrong, but isn't it the stewards job to watch the crowd, not the pitch? Every single one of those stewards is watching the pitch..... and this is seconds after the lighter has already been thrown so they're aware stuff is being chucked

You'd think that the job of safeguarding material evidence without a sell-by date would be simple enough for Polis Scotland but apparently not.

 

Obviously the stewards have already clocked the culprit (wee Johnny fae the under 15s Motherwell Ultras) and as a highly trained elite force would do, have instantly switched focus and are tracking the evidence whilst computing the dilemma between professionalism and their stomach.

 

 

Scene reminded me of a group of school kids giving their lollipop man some stick.

 

 

One issue I'd bring up was that I saw the object being thrown on TV (or rather landing beside Tav) but never heard about it from any medium, who were all talking about the lighter. It's only Tav's twitter account that I have seen it in although I'm sure that will mean it getting picked up elsewhere.

 

 

Are stewards selected for their bulk and the increased chance of blocking pies, lighters or whatever from reaching the pitchside ?

Are they paid in pies ?

Imagine that horrific pass from Tav had not happened and the game had finished a draw ...

 

Very workman-like performance, second in a row and nigh any good chance taken. Well done to Defoe and Arfield.
