Worst stewards in the SPL

We have all had a run in at some point with the mini-hitlers known as stewards, where is the worst you have experienced and why?

Tannadice has by far the worst stewards from my expierences.  God help you if you're stuck in the Jerry Kerr stand.  Awful seating and you get no leg room but that doesn't stop the stewards and their police chums from chucking out anyone who dares to stand.

Out of all the stadiums I've been to I've only ever had trouble at two of them (which just so happen to be the two I've been to most often) Pittodrie and Tannadice.

 

They are terrible at Tannadice though, last time I was there they were walking up and down the steps ready to pounce on anyone who dared stand up for whatever reason, with the threat of being chucked out if you don't oblige.

 

Pittodrie isn't great though. Sitting in the South Stand where I do whenever Rangers and Celtic are playing the away fans are always standing up, and sitting in the South Stand right next to the OF fans you have to stand up to see about a quater of the pitch. So every time the ball goes there you have to stand up, and along comes the stewards to ask you to sit down, despite the fact that the OF fans seem to be allowed to stand up.

 

This has got better recently though I have to say, a couple of seasons ago they were terrible for it.

I tend to see more people getting thrown out of Ibrox than anywhere else.

Celtic and rangers have the worst, first time i went to parkhead myself i nearly got chucked out because i over celebrated.

iprix and Pittodrie for me have the worst stewarts/police they are so bias against us

Tannadice by a country mile, always feel I'm gonna get thrown out any second and the evil looks you get even when you head for a pie or toilet at HT is ridiculous.

Definitely the Dundee stewards and in particular the head steward who is a complete dick.  Too many of these supervisors think wearing a luminous yellow jacket gives them super powers to treat folk like shit.

 

Honoury mention to Parkhead stewards aswell for the reasons above.

Tannadice, closely followed by a few at Pittodrie (others wee gems!)

 

Saying that, I have never been to Ibrox

Both Tannadice and Ibrox!! Have been chucked out of both so very hard to choose one.  :hammer:

Dundee/United though special mentions for Ibrox and Parkhead who have had some spectacular individual efforts over the last few years.

 

Parkhead - Steward squared up to me and a couple of others, funny as fuck, his supervisor huckled him

 

Ibrox - The 3-0 game season before last, this young dude had the mad head on, ended up getting huckled by the polis!

I was standing next to you at a game and we got a corner. We all stood up to watch the corner. The setward told you to sit down and you did your usual tirade. Then the police woman said to us that it was ok to stand up every now and then. The steward was gutted he had been over ruled by the Police.

 

That was a good one, aye, she said stand up when you like, don't listen to him or something.

 

"My usual tirade"??? That's a bit unfair, the boy was a cock! ;)

I'm going to put the Motherwell stewards at the top here.

 

In the pie que at half time two seasons back and one of them comes up and tells me that the cops have a camera on me so make sure i behave myself. All this because i was standing up!! I think they really meant to be watching Funster though, just so hapened i was standing beside him  :thumbsup:

They were total cahnts that day though and they were watching the guy in the light blue jacket, which you were wearing btw  ;)

I still believe it was a case of mistaken identity!!

 

Dont think there has been that many memorably bad stewards since then, either that or my behaviour has picked up  ;D

I think some people see getting hassled by stewards as something of a status symbol.

 

I haven't had bother from stewards home or away in years... and even then I probably deserved some of the hassle they gave me.

 

Some fans get aggressive with the stewards very quickly over not very much so it's no wonder the stewards sometimes act that way back.  I'm sure alot of fans have had too much to drink :wino:

 

In saying that though...

A lot of the time you're definitely right jager and we carry a fair amount of tits in our support but some of the stewarding in this country is laughable.

Never had any problems with the stewards at Ibrox, the police however is a different matter. Complained at being hit my a missile form above (AA battery) and the police man separating us from the huns said it wasn't his problem. It was his problem however when his mate 3 rows down was nailed on the back of the head by a coin again from above. He turned round looking at the Aberdeen fans and I just smugly pointed up to the tier above saying should have tried to stop it shouldn't you....

What does the 'Z' stand for?

The Nazi's at Tannadice take some beating. Last season at the first match, one decided to throw out my dad cause he called a steward "Elton John".

 

The annoying thing was that the Steward was the spitting image of Elton John!

Only ever been to Ibrox once, had absolutely no bother from the Stewards there. Not had trouble at most stadiums (being such a nice boy trouble rarely finds me) but been victimised by them at both Pittodrie and Tannadice.

Probably what the steward thought too!  ;)

Do you save all the bother for clubs?  ;)

 

I've only had trouble in clubs three times in my life thank you very much, and only two of those times was it my fault.

 

I maintain that protecting a mate who's getting felt up by some drunk bastard is acceptable...bouncers thought so too.

66% of the time it's your fault.  :o

Never been thrown out but the ones at Dundee/United are a nightmare. Lost the plot a little with one at Tannadice last season because he was telling me I had to sit.. fair enough.. but he spent the whole time pacing about in front of me (blocking my view) looking for folk who were standing and itching to throw them out. I did think I'd be out on my arse for that but by some miracle I remained in the ground.

 

But I voted Ibrox because of this story.. It may be one that Funster was talking about I'm not sure. But there was this young guy stewarding and asking to see people's tickets and if they refused he'd say to the polis man "Can I have this man ejected please. He wont show me his ticket." To which the polis man responded by giving the lad a bit of a talking to. He then fucked off somehwere else to the delight of the Dons fans. I think I even remember him trying to get a lad chucked out even though he had shown him his ticket. Grade A weegie nazi hun c*nt.
