When EVERYONE is standing there is little they can do. On Wednesday there was a small enough crowd to isolate Brigada as persistent standers. Unlike other standers, Brigada refuse to sit when requested. They got them. Still I am gobsmacked by the heavy handedness of it.. The truth is that we need to properly pursue the club's interest in legal standing. The club need to know that this is what we want and sadly, just standing regardless won't cut it.

Banning Brigada stinks. The club have let themselves down again, not for the first time in the last few weeks.

Does it still stink if the bans are justified?I have already clarified that point, It WAS for standing, and if any one has any FACTS to add to this discussion re why these fans are now excluded from buying away tickets please do.
I was there, I saw and heard what happened, I didn't THINK it was for standing, I KNOW it was ! They were ejected for standing as I witnessed it first hand. They have now been excluded from buying away tickets at this moment in time which suggests it is a ban put in place for standing. I know the persons it affects and I can honestly say they are not or have been involved in anything other than supporting AVFC.Is that better/clearer/understandable ?
Ah bless !!
