Re: people smoking under the stands
I was stood in the south stand and a guy asked a steward if he could go outside for a tab. The steward says to this guy you cant go out for obvious reasons but if he lit up in the toilet, that was his choice. So of course the guy did. And lets face it, they do it every match and it does no harm to anyone really.

It's my choice to not breathe in disgusting cancer-causing chemicals and have the awful stench on my clothes. I wish the fucking brainless idiots would leave me alone.so surely if you do smoke its also your choice? leave people alone

Ditto I can't stand going into people's houses (with work) and being "smoked out" And the poor fookin kids in the house, well the parents should be done for child abuse. There should be a designated "leper colony" in every town where smokers can congregate without prejudice, everywhere else they should be shot on sightMakka Pakka wrote:It's my choice to not breathe in disgusting cancer-causing chemicals and have the awful stench on my clothes.

Re: people smoking under the stands
Woooo aren't we the big thinkers on here tonight. If you don't want to go into people's houses then don't. If that means you can't do your job then get a different one - its all choices you have to make as a grown up. No doubt you will think the correct answer is to enforce a smoking ban in people's homes on the off-chance they may be honoured with a visit from you. How about the poor people who visit your house and have to endure the stench of bigotry - what are you going to do to help them out?DL5 wrote:Ditto I can't stand going into people's houses (with work) and being "smoked out" And the poor fookin kids in the house, well the parents should be done for child abuse.

I don't force my fresh air on smokers, they are welcome to fuck off outside and smoke without contaminating the fresh air I choose to breathe.

Bigotry my arse. The guy is asking for people not to force cancer causing smoke into his lungs, how does that make him a bigot?

Tough.
It's not outside, and "under the stands" is bloody crampt enough allready when people go for a pint at half time.
Hold off your impending cancer ridden doom for 90 minutes for fucks sake.
Or, for other people's sake if not your own!

Re: people smoking under the stands
There are signs all around the grounds forbiding smoking in the stadium.
Surely the stewards should know that?
On a personnal note I have lost many relatives and friends due to lung cancer and all of them smoked. What I cannot understand is, with all the information and proof, kids still start up smoking.

Re: people smoking under the stands
I smoked 40 a day for over 25 years, but gave it up when my daughter was born 19 years ago.
Now I regard it as one of the most disgusting habits around.
Anyone that smokes is an idiot - there are NO arguements for smoking - fact.
If you want to kill yourelf, do it in a way that doesn't affect others.
If the Government had the guts (and didn't want the tax revenues), it would ban the production and sale of all tobacco products.

Re: people smoking under the stands
I don't understand - I'm a smoker and can go 90mins without smoking, although I'm not sure where the harm would be in providing an outside area, apart from it being a logistical nightmare.
Equally, I try to be as considerate a smoker as possible, and always did even when smoking was permitted in pubs.
Where I do draw the line though, is when I have quite willingly been outside for a tab regardless of temperature and weather and without complaint, I get abuse for smelling of smoke when I return. I will argue with any fucker on that. I am happy to abide by the law but the do-gooders still have to have a pop.
I know some ex-smokers and one in particular gets on my tits with his endless ranting, when he was in fact one of the most inconsiderate smokers around back in the day.
Rant over.
PS. I would rather smell smoke on a smokers clothes than smell BO or s*** on a non smoker. And I felt that even as a youngun pre smoking.

If bigotry is wanting not to be polluted with filthy smoke then tickle my balls and call me a bigot.
Yes some sort of smoking ban for "home visits" should be adopted and made law. Why should I have to put up with it or change my job? Why should I have to put up with the likes of you trying to defend the indefensible and telling me to put up with it? People can smoke themselves to death if they want as long as I don't have to endure one whiff of that s***.
I also think that children forced to grow up in a smoky environment shouldn't have to do so and should be protected. Parents who can't be arsed to nip outside and have a tab in the garden need to seriously consider the consequences.

Re: people smoking under the stands
make smelly fuckers go and stand outside too, why should i breathe in their farts and BO?
Oh and people who talk shite should be made to wait until after the game, its not fair on us non shite-talking people to have to listen to 'just score a goal darlo' and 'penney out' etc, like we did last season.

Pathetic

I'll pass on the first offer. No I would say that statements such as "There should be a designated "leper colony" in every town where smokers can congregate without prejudice, everywhere else they should be shot on sight" are what I mean by bigotry.

This is a bit more reasoned than your earlier comment which implied that people should not be allowed to smoke in their own home. I certainly don't feel that defending a person's right to smoke in their own home is indefensible. The reason you have to put up with the likes of me defending that right is because we live in a mainly free society which allows me to defend this position - I do, however, appreciate that someone who advocates shooting smokers on sight is not gpoing to be swayed by such libertarian concerns.

Re: people smoking under the stands
You've taken the comments too seriously from my first post, my style is sometimes "tongue in cheek" maybe that's good to evoke a response, maybe not. I'm certainly not a libertarian but (just to be clear) I don't actually believe smokers should be shotdfcdfcdfc wrote:Lets look at this with some semblance of thought

We're obviously on different sides of the fence. I'm affected by people smoking in their own homes almost on a daily basis, not to the point where I'm sat there for hours but enough for my clothes to stink when I leave. It really bugs me that I have to endure that.
I also see children exposed to smoke every day, I just don't think the law extends far enough at present to protect non smokers.

Smoking at the stadium shouldn't be allowed.But pubs should have smoking rooms if the landlord wishes so, you can't complain about that it would be a persons own choice to enter that room.
