Can't wait for some caftards to say we should have played on despite the bomb threat to show that we are not a team of pussies and have balls of steel.
OT EVACUATED | Device signed as having been recovered, could NOT be detected by sniffer dogs
- Thread starter Badunk
- Start date
Cheers, guys.
Finally some good news in a fecking garbage day.
Yes if we win cup we would enter the Group stage as would Southampton and West Ham would be 3rd qualifying round
I think I read someone noticed it - so to me they are chief suspect and should be investigated. Who that is? No idea. But i'm really interested to know, how visible the 'bomb' was because when someone goes into the toilet....they're not looking round every knook and cranny. In addition to that always - the only reason it would be left visable ...is for someone to spot it and ring it in and make it a news topic. Someone determined isn't going to make it visible so whoever spotted it - has some questions to answer.
And f it's a fake bomb made to look real ..then this is a political issue and someone pushing the terrorism narrative. I wouldn't call it a 'prank' at all and it's dangerous too call it a prank. We shouldn't underestimate these sadists for want of a better word. I assume some will think it's a prank but I doubt it.
I guess we'll know more in the coming days but my moneys on the person who spotted it. Complete guess lol

Apparently the game has been rescheduled for this Tuesday...
Tuesday 8pm
The controlled explosion was probably the most exciting things those stands saw in the past 3 years
If Bournemouth stay in town why can't it be played tomorrow … both sets of fans will be fecked either way!
Could be worse I suppose, came over from Ireland last August for the Spurs game and actually had to watch it.
/tasteless joke.
*reacts with self righteous indignation*
Or … they could just close off that bog?
If any good comes from this, it'll be that it shows the real terrorists that we're ready and prepared for them.
Atleast knowing the fact that it was a hoax takes some edge off it. Otherwise it could have serious consequences for stadium security.
If someone can make you flinch without even raising an arm, they win.
Not sure the reason but the fact they are flying home tonight was broadcast quite a while ago.
I suppose not, but there would be repercussions if the worst were to happen in future and it came out that they were not telling the truth.
With the security cameras in OT I wouldn't be surprised if they can narrow it down to a ticket holder or 10.
Just a thought, but… if City had have gone in level at HT and heard we're 3:0 up the panic might have screwed up their second half completely! I demand all games are replayed … what do you reckon @GlastonSpur ?
At least we could look forward to some young players playing this Tuesday.
Jet-set feckers!
Well we can joke about it but I think that would have effected many teams in the second half. It's unfortunate they allowed the city game to go ahead. I think they should be played side by side. When players hear that kind of thing, it scares them and it certainly scared Spurs
Waiting for the LVG fanbois on here to claim that this was a show of defensive organisation under Louis.
How so?
Why wouldn't the next incident be treated in isolation?
From the club's perspective surely it's better to say ' elaborate hoax' rather than actual bomb.
If it's stated an actual bomb was in the stadium, the ramifications would send shockwaves around the footballing world in every which way possible. As is, 'hoax' deadens or softens the storm, which would be why I think if there's no obligation to tell the truth, they might opt not to.
We need to win. Otherwise it is 3rd qualifying round, or else win the cup and West Ham will the get into Europe and 3rd qualifying round.
I mean, seriously?
Source?
That's exactly why lying about an actual bomb would be a bad idea. If people are told it's a hoax then there going to be far less diligent than if they're told it was a real threat.
If this was a hoax then the persons responsible have put unnecessary fear into not only everybody inside the stadium but their nearest and dearest too. They have also spoilt the end of the season for everyone.
He is the one who wanted to say it.
Instead it's full of jose "fanbois" all happy this happened.
What's the betting the kick off will be delayed on tuesday? I think it might be like the west ham game. I would love to see the kids play. They play without fea. Its unfair that we have to play on Tuesday but there you go.
After the events at the match in Paris and now this, you have to think it's just a matter of time before something does happen inside a stadium.
I don't foresee our own fans throwing bottles and stones at the coach
This will get attention in the future. Security must be top notch. Its the world we live in now.
wrong thread
I was of course referring to the security and the extra diligent checks. We've had three delayed starts recently. The west ham ones a disgrace and I'm not a fan of the way the media created that atmosphere. Hopefully fans get in early but been a funny few weeks.
'Hoax' should have all clubs on high alert from a security perspective, really. 'Bomb' works as a definitive terror threat and could put people off going in their droves as well as alter the footballing climate on an epic scale.
I dunno, I just can't see why, if not obligated to do so, the club would put its neck on the line about this.
I'm probably just letting my own feelings about it tarnish how I think the club should act about it. It I found an actual threat I would want to alert as many people as possible, although I appreciate the panic that it might cause.
Is that right? Never thought of that scenario.
Never had to learn about these things when fergie was in charge.
