Crusaders lay official complaint with Sanzar

[Happy]

before they get out of hand

that's a tough one, people might have decided to invade without even consuming a beer .. so how would you pick them out of a crowd of 16,000+ people ?

it's a one off so far, all the games at Subi and nIB .. how many games have had someone run onto the pitch?

Let's not start over cooking this thing just yet, after all - it's only the Crusaders who are complaining

[Ralto]

Guess which country of origin (which national rugby team they support) most crowd controllers and security guards are from?

????? - I ken jus look at em and see were they be from - Cletus, bring on the Gimp

[GAFFA]

so the "Invaders" cost them the game...how do they explain the other 79 mins?

[Ralto]

So do we get a bonus point?

If they ban all Kiwis from the ground - we'll get a bonus point each match - at least.

At pubs maybe, but I reckon it's changing at sporting events to guards from the subcontinent and central Africa...

Speaking of which our stocky little Kiwi security guard called "T" at who never fails to give me a "Crusaders, Crusaders" chant each time I walk in and he is on duty, but he didn't on Sunday, so I did it for him, much to the amusment of a few Irish backpackers.

Be sure to remind him when you see him there next time yourself, he'll be wrapped

Is it possible to make an official complaint? I would cite the past instances of problems at the Chiefs games and other home matches against Kiwis. If anyone can provide some examples of the ongoing problems we've had over the years, I can draft up a letter and we'll send it off as an official complaint from "TWF - Official Western Force Supporters Group" or "concerned citizens - think of the children!!!" or something like that. Not only could we send it to governing bodies, but to sports editors also?

Go for it!

Okay, if anyone has info, PM me or stick it on the forum. If you can find any weblinks that'll be good too. After I draft it, I'll get my lawyer mate to look at it so it's all above-board and can't get us into slander/libel trouble. I think it might be a wake-up call.

i have noticed in the stadium a lack of events people checking tickets. i know people who brought standing tickets to the rebels game and then just walked up the new stand and sat in the Gold ticket seats. no one checked their tickets once they got in the ground.

We had guys last week with stand up tickets walking into diamond!

Worst game for me was last year's Chiefs game, Being on Good Friday, the Kiwi supporters all pre-loaded like hell. It was so bad that one of them threw up in the aisle leading to our seats, which took about 20 minutes to clean up and allow us access to our seats.

The other one was the black commodore with a big silver fern on the quarter panel which drove aggressively through the crowd walking to the train on Saturday night shouting abuse out the window. They seem only too happy to tell us we're shut when we lose, but when we win apparently we're still shut and it's the rif's fault.
