Beginning to hear lots of complaints about constant searching of fans going into the ground
As happened to me in the past and is completely out of order
Yet again another Kingpower own goal
Shift these clowns on as soon as possible

Never had a problem
 
Yes I was searched along with both my brother-in-laws yesterday. They are in their 60's and I'm 72. We never got searched back in the old days (60's & 70's) when often all hell let loose in the kop at Filbert Street.

It’s crazy what’s happening down there
It is a complete lack of respect to the fan base and the over policing seen down there for years is scandalous
 
Patted down on last two occasions. Apparently they’ve been told to search every fan. So cursory I could have concealed a small arsenal and they wouldn’t have found it
 
The club have lost the plot, although I wasn’t searched, my brother was. Absolutely ridiculous searching over 60’s in the home areas. They really know how to alienate the fans, once inside I saw the price of Guinness zero at £7 a can. And they wonder why people use local pubs instead!
 
I am 67 and was searched yesterday, or at least partly, as only top half was patted down. So as Lozfox says, I could also have got anything in if I wanted to. The ‘boy’ that did it looked no more than 18 and was a right jumped up little twat. If I had said boo he would have shit himself. It’s an absolute joke and the club should be ashamed of what’s going on.

Don't tell Pen2, he'll be back down just for the boys to pat him down.
 
Remember Chelsea fans causing trouble in December 1968 chasing us behind the kop and then there's the infamous Rangers "friendly" in the 60's.
 
One wanted to search me a couple of weeks ago. I waved him away and sidestepped to the next turnstiles along. He turned and stepped away, didn't want an arguement.
 
I got a full search plus a sniffer dog at York v Halifax a few weeks ago.

I am 77 years. You couldn't make it up.
 
It will be interesting on Friday 24th, Millwall with an 8-00pm kick off, you can bet they'll come in their numbers for that one.
 
Interdicting fake Werthers
Collecting East Midlands pocket lint
Crackdown on KP ‘Hyper-Strength’ pill (‘now he’s scored two in a game he’s gonna get six’)
Increasing the anxiety levels of Citeh Bags wearers (Oxford, Birmingham and Colostomy)
Checking thigh body mass in local over 60s for De Montfort University Academic Study
Clamping down on the trade in 1968 A and BC gum card swopsies (especially Willie Bell)
Checking for ticketless hamsters, budgies and other small household companions
Also checking for goldfish in plastic bags of lukewarm water (those with digital tickets, but no cards)
Warming the hands of erratically paid stewards
Warming the nether regions of erotically charged stewards
Profiling for future tasering at the last home game ‘Lap of Pensioner Riot’.

I heard they're still embarrassed at missing the baby squad forming back in the day. So now the focus is fully on stopping the grandad squad...
 
Never been searched at home game, just walk straight by them. However away is different, pat down is routine. Ipswich was completely over the top, the guy wanted me to empty my pockets as there was one item he didn't like. I told him it was my inhaler & that I was 74 & not going to do it. He accepted this & let me through. I know he was probably only doing what he had been told but for goodness sake
