You are a shocking part of scottish football! I honestly nearly passed out when all i wanted was the toilet.... in my opinion you should all be banned from football (last time i checked... it was illegal to smoke in a public place)

TO BE HONEST I REGULARLY PARTAKE IN THE ODD BATHROOM CIGARETTE. FIND IT AMAZING THEY DONT HAVE SMOKING AREAS AT FOOTBALL.

I never went near the toilet today, my mate went who used to smoke and says it was unreal how bad it was. I've actually had to live with a lung condition all my life and things like that would Prob knock me to my knees. I understand folk have an addiction but surely you guys can respect others? Kids for example shouldn't be made to suffer that. It's banned from toilets so its you who's in the wrong. Until you know how much it affects others I don't think it will stop. Sad really!

I am only 23 and when i was young they could only smoke out the back of the east stand.. i could breath clearly in my own happiness.

im sure back in your day casuals were involved in fights, people took drugs and everone smoked... but its all part of modern day football i suppose

[West hamBERNIAN]

There should be areas to go outside and smoke, there isn't. Ppl know they get away with it so they'll do it. I'm sure the authorities are told to be lax on the issue due to the fact it would impact attendances if it were outlawed.

Your a definately right in what you are saying, I suppose i should only follow certain laws because i know i can get away with some 'minor laws'
definately the wrong attitude by officials

[seanshow]

Wasn't just the toilets parts of the concourse and most of the stairs were filled with smoke, because people could wait for 90 mins.......... or get outside. :confused:


And nobody did hewaw about it, hopefully there were some Commonwealth games observers there...lol disgrace.

[Miguel]

Ouch, you know what i ment... how about smoking in toilets at a football match? Im sure you have the facts

Yes, it's wrong to smoke in the bogs (and on stairs where people were also smoking), but stewards won't let people out back of stadium for a puff. There should be room for compromise.

[West hamBERNIAN]

your a definately right in what you are saying, i suppose i should only follow certain laws because i know i can get away with some 'minor laws'
definately the wrong attitude by officials

there are a lot of laws that are overlooked, if they don,t smoke in the bog, they'll smoke in the stand and that'll definitely cause trouble. Its not obviously not the officials that make the decision to allow it, must be someone in charge. Not difficult to stop it, not once has somebody said don't do it "official wise" even here in london its the same every week. To be fair it only happens at half time, nip to the loo aminute early maybe?

your right, back in my day casuals wore proper gear not knock off, folk smoked without feeling like lepers and the drugs were free :greengrin nowadays as an ex smoker myself im not bothered by folks feeling the need for a fag at the footie, i used to smoke a 10 pack in 1 game such was the anxiety hibs gave me :cb i have decent CP company gear i cant wear now and if i want to get high im worried my daughter wants a puff too, football who needs it

[.Whitey.]

Don'y drink beforehand, skip the halftime bog visit, no?

Its okay.. I'll skip some of the match play in order to save my lungs from the smoke... No worries all is good :( Hope all the smokers are punished.

News flash!! This is a new age we live in, if you can't handle 90 mins without a fag then get some help

Well i understand people smoke, but us healthy folk want to live a full and enjoyable lifestyle, without second hand smoke blown at us while we relieve ourselves ;) surely not too much to ask?

[Golden Bear]

There was a guy in our bus who was evicted by the stewards at half time for THE INTENTION of having a smoke. He says he was in the process of making a roll up when he was collared by the stewards and shown the door in no uncertain terms. Incidentally the guy was a reasonably sober 50+ gent and his intended roll up was definitely of the tobacco variety!

It is attitude like yours that is in need of changing, if you recall its 2013 and there are rules to follow.

The guy who started this thread has a point. Too many people in society today believe that certain laws do not apply to them and so choose to ignore the ones they don't like and to hell with everyone else. The smoking ban was introduced for a reason. There may well be laws which I am not happy with but I still abide by them. It's a sad day when you can't last 90 minutes without a fag. Selfish is what I would call it.

:greengrin Of course, I should have given it more thought.

You are a shocking part of scottish football! I honestly nearly passed out when all i wanted was the toilet.... in my opinion you should all be banned from football (last time i checked... it was illegal to smoke in a public place)
In regards to the situation - i spoke to 4 different stewards and 2 police officers, all i got 'it isnt mt problem pal'

I havnt read the rest of this thread, so no doubt I'm going over old ground, as will be similar posts to mine ... but:

You were no doubt unaware of the rammy going on at the exit doors with loads of filthy disgusting smokers asking to be let out for a fag. "Aye, but we winnae be allowed back in pal"

Given the fact that at the back of the East Stand people are allowed out at will through the wide open gates, the reason for that attitude yesterday was hard to understand.

There will no doubt continue to be folk like you posting the above who's opinion on this subject will not be changed by posts like mine. The reason being that as far as you are concerned the back up argument will be that its bad to smoke, which nobody, including smokers like me, can ( or will ) argue with.

The argument from our ( or at least my ) point of view is that the utter unwillingness of football clubs to take the few small measures required to enable smokers to exit stadiums for a few minutes at half time seems to be nothing short of bad customer service. Unless of course you are in hospitality, like at Easter Road, where according to a steward I spoke to in the West last season this is not a problem all of a sudden.

When was the last time you went to a pub and found the bogs full of folk smoking, never because you can go outside for a fag, so it would seem to me that the answer to this problem is simple.

Oh and by the way ...... This paticular "blight on Scottish football" has been going to ER since the mid 70s and has spent thousands and thousands of pounds following Hibs home and away. That statement doesnt make my argument right and yours wrong, but I would suggest that it does entitle me, and folk like me,to a bit of consideration from Scottish football in general and Hibs especially.

[Baader]

Simple solution, don't go to the toilet if you don't want to inhale all that nasty smoke :aok:

Yes let's return to the good old days of fitba and pissing down the leg of the person in front of you...!

You joke, but that's exactly what my 5 year old son wants me to do every time we see someone smoking. (Not the peeing part obviously... :wink:)

[Hibbyradge]

I can't abide with people smoking in the toilets. It's utterly inconsiderate and selfish, but surely it's not beyond the wit of mankind to provide some sort of open area where addicts at football matches can get their fix.

The toilets were a pretty disgusting place to take children yesterday.

That's a reasonable way of looking at. Another is it's not beyond the wit of our national stadium to enforce the law. To be honest, it's just one of a number of issues that I found exceptionally poor at our supposed national stadium yesterday in the family area.

[iwasthere1972]

I confess to having half a cigarette on the stairway in the west stand. Stewards and police were turning a blind eye to it so I thought why not.

I'm hoping I wasn't caught on CCTV. Half expecting my door to be kicked in this morning and hear "It's the smoke police don't move....we've got your house surrounded" I'm now living in terror.

Hale hale the Hibs are here.

[fat freddy]

surely the answer is obvious...stick a steward in the toilets at half time.

i never went to the toilet at half time yesterday but i did have two chavvy, grey jogger types sitting directly behind me and they smoked for most of the second half which was pretty minging...they were also using pretty rascist language when screaming abuse at the celtic players although they didn't sound like they knew much about football...i would have said something to them about their behaviour but i was completely wasted myself and could barely see straight...was the game any good?

[truehibernian]

Yes let's return to the good old days of fitba and pissing down the leg of the person in front of you...!

That made me laugh as it did indeed bring back the 'it was so true' memories :greengrin

Lots of youngsters on here really haven't experienced (thankfully) football crowds (at times) decades ago. Sorry to sound sentimental but the smell of cigar smoke was, admittedly, one of the instant lures of Easter Road when I was young and took my place in the terrace...........the crowd swell, the smoke, the patter and the pies. The football was quite often lilian gish :agree: But you're so right, the stench of urine as the game approached half time, or at the back of the East could have taken paint off walls ! I'd go as far as to say not many of my mates even dared venture into the toilets as they could have literally been labelled a biochemical disaster area - wearing white suits before going in would have been apt.

Smoking at games - sorry to sound so conformist but nah, just don't please - it's annoying for those that don't, it's unhealthy, and toilets are indeed for the toilet, not for smoking and other 'recreational uses' !

Willing however to see both sides and that smoking is an addiction, so it's maybe time areas of a stadium are indeed changed into 'smoking zones' for those that need one, and clearly marked as such (the back of the East for example is a wide paved expanse which wouldn't really affect anyone and is open air).

But I'm firmly in the 'no smoking in seats/toilets' camp I'm afraid.

[Hermit Crab]

120 odd posts about some boys having a sly puff? More important things to worry about surely.

[Beefster]

You joke, but that's exactly what my 5 year old son wants me to do every time we see someone smoking. (Not the peeing part obviously... :wink:)

To be honest, it doesn't have quite the same impact without slapping the whanger out at the end and pissing like a racehorse.

[Hibby D]

When I'm driving home from work in the evening I get very p'eed off at the ignorant erseholes who think bus lanes don't apply to them. - But they're obviously in more of a hurry than me yeah?

In the pub pre-match yesterday I was pretty p'eed off when grown men helped themselves to the ladies loos because the queue for the "gents" was lengthy. But they were obviously more burstin' than the guys who waited patiently, yeah?

People who smoke where they shouldn't, do it because their need for a fag far outweighs any consideration they have for those around them, including children.

I don't know what the perfect solution is to any of these issues, but maybe if people were just a little less inconsiderate themselves, then there might not be an issue to resolve!

ps for the record, I fully support the suggestion that the club allows people out for a half time fag. A rubber stamp like they use in nightclubs would cost about 2/6d

:agree: Agree with every word.

[Sudds_1]

Haha dont get me started... for all those fans that left with 15-20mins to play. Shouldnt derserve to be there (and before you start. yes im an uber fan) but ill save that conversation for a different thread ;)

you might find evening primrsoe oil of some benefit my friend.................and some oil of olay for your fingers, which much be quite sore with all that keyboard bashing. :cb

[matty_f]

The guy who started this thread has a point. Too many people in society today believe that certain laws do not apply to them and so choose to ignore the ones they don't like and to hell with everyone else. The smoking ban was introduced for a reason. There may well be laws which I am not happy with but I still abide by them. It's a sad day when you can't last 90 minutes without a fag. Selfish is what I would call it.

:agree: The "I'm alright so f*** everyone else" attitude is one part of society that consistently disgusts me.

[Bad Martini]

Was minging and I'm a former smoker. Also out of order for the bairns in the toilet. If you canny no inflict yer smoke on others, ****ing wait til you won't. It's ignorant and out of order.

[Leishy1995]

He tried the Police and the Stewards what more do you want.

Spoke to the smokers? On this we can't stop them and if you have a problem just say, not everyone will punch you'll for it

[7062]

I thought you could get outside at hampden for a smoke at half time? You could at last years semi and final.

[DH1875]

Only in the East stand.
I was in the North and when I went for my half time p the stewards were in telling everyone to put their fags out or they'll be out.
Boy next to me had one of them e cig things. Didn't realize they actually gave of smoke. Couple of guys were telling him to put it out and he explained what it was. Remember thinking to myself this could get nasty.

:agree: Had my wee boy at a home match and he was desperate for the loo at half time. All 6 cubicles engaged and was standing waiting for a free one with him. Guy with a fag in hand barged in front of us and I asked if he was only going for a smoke - yes was the response so I said any chance the wee lad can get in before you before he does one in his pants! He agreed - easy a smoker but a good Hibby too :flag::flag::flag:

Why should you not be allowed to smoke in your seat it's an open space, honestly people need to have a word. I'm sure there was far more illegal activities going on in the bathrooms yesterday. but I agree we should have smoking areas for us horrible people who enjoy a smoke.

Legally it isn't. It is enclosed enough to fall under the same regulations as pubs etc.
I have no problem with having a smoking area in the stadium's outside areas.

Use an E Cig myself; it isn't smoke that's emitted, it's actually water vapour. No more harmful than standing next to a boiling kettle. Like garlic bread, it's the future. :wink:

[IWasThere2016]

I never went near the toilet today, my mate went who used to smoke and says it was unreal how bad it was. I've actually had to live with a lung condition all my life and things like that would Prob knock me to my knees. I understand folk have an addiction but surely you guys can respect others? Kids for example shouldn't be made to suffer that. It's banned from toilets so its you who's in the wrong. Until you know how much it affects others I don't think it will stop. Sad really! Grounds should maybe do more for smokers?

If you give smokers a smoking area - they simply light up on the way to it.

Not right that the officials did nothing about it.

[pontius pilate]

I'm a smoker and don't use the toilets to light up the stench from them yesterday was bad.

They did but going by this thread only on an isolated occasion. There was a guy on our bus who was evicted by the stewards at half time for the apparent crime of intending to smoke! He said he was in the process of making a roll up when the stewards warned him to stop otherwise he'd be thrown out. He never actually lit up but was still evicted and watched the second half in a pub. The guy was 50+, not a troublemaker, and the fag would definitely be of the tobacco variety. Seems as though he was well and truly victimised going by some of the other posts on this thread!
