Smoke bombs

[Mikey09]

Can the idiots who think this is a laugh cut it out. The first one that came on was thrown from the back of the East and I watched it barely reach the pitch. If this had hit someone at the front it would have caused a bit of damage. I love the atmosphere up at section 43 but cut this out before someone gets a sore one FFS. Thanks.

First 1 came from section 44 & I agree it was very lucky to have made the pitch. Silly boys

[wearethehibs]

I mean if you're going to be silly enough to set these off, at least have the guts to keep hold of it.

[hibee_girl]

Ayr fans had a few today too

[H18 SFR]

A couple of children were ejected late on for the second smoke things. Both looked 14/15 years old. I'm sure the club will be looking to support them as they make the transition into adulthood so to speak.

[ZSdoom]

first one was thrown from behind me in 44, the two kids who did it then moved over to section 43 where they obviously threw the 2nd. the police seemed to know who was involved regarding the first one but never did anything until the 2nd one was thrown

[Twiglet]

I normally wonder how they can be taken into the stadium today, but I could have taken anything in as the stewards didn't ask to check my bag.

I do agree with a poster above, if you're going to set one off have the guts to hold it...at least until the police and stewards can identify you so they can chuck you out and give your details to Hibs.

No need in them really.

We dont want those idiots at easter road.

I like them, it adds to the atmosphere.

Yeah but they smell nice and look good. I'm a generally sensible adult but I like them.

[monktonharp]

we keep going on about these potentially toxic smoke bombs, but think back to the SC final and to other events over the past few seasons. has there been any real situations where the general support have really been injured, reqd medical attention, or breathing apparatus facilities? a couple of smoke bombs, disnae seem a big issue to me

[hibby6270]

Smoke bombs at games?
NOT NECESSARY. NOT REQUIRED. NOT CLEVER.
End of!!

[660]

I was having a delightful kip until some pesky ruffian launched a smoke bomb on the pitch.

[Since1875Hibs]

Same person done both and was swiftly ejected. Very, very lucky they didn't hit a supporter in the front row.

[JennaFletcher]

How do they get sneaked in? When I go to the game it's like airport security, they check every item in my bag

Was once told that my small perfume sample (yes sample) wasn't allowed because it could be thrown at the pitch

Personally if it hit me I would then go and kick ten bells put of the little s££&at.

I was more concerned with how close it came to skelping some poor Hibs fan in the back of the head. I'm sure if one of them hits you or a member of your family you'll still think "ach it adds to the atmosphere!"

What happens if a smoke bomb hits you?

Probably the same thing that would happen if any heavy object thrown from a height would do.

What happens if a smoke bomb hits you?

Probably the equivalent of a bottle of beer hitting you in the back of the head, point is it could have seriously hurt somebody.

[Andy74]

I'm sure someone could point me to some examples of injuries caused by them rather than just imagining what could happen?

In my experience there's more chance of being injured by those round things the players seem intent on kicking around the place.

Are you deliberately ignoring the posts above? People aren't talking about the smoke, they're talking about the fact the canister only just cleared the fans at the bottom of the stand.

Imagine being hit by a smoke canister that was launched from the top of the east if you're sitting at the bottom.

That's one hell of a distance, and drop, for one of these things. Some serious damage would be caused if that hit you on the head. Not clever, and certainly no need.

Sneaked in inside a jacket. Its no difficult. You're no gonna put them in a bag that's possibly gonna get searched are you?

Not ignoring. I'm sure you can point me to examples of people being injured by being struck?
