Post a clear picture of you holding one then in the next game if you’re as big and brave as you’re making out. I won’t hold my breath though. 😉 Fucking hell fast response...they've been banned come back again n been banned again in the time you've replied...El brave one🙄 So no then. Thought so. Sorry if a fast response has put you in a spin. Weird defence.

I won’t hold my breath though. 😉 Same people liking this post..fucking wet wipes 😂😂😂 I’m sure we’re all offended by your insults. Carry on being brave on here but not in reality. Picture of you with a big flare is about as rare as your GCSE certificates 😂 Wet wipes? 😆

You can say a lot of things about this photo (I’d hate to be in the middle of that) but you can’t seriously tell me that looks crap. It’s fucking beautiful. It's just coloured smoke, what's good about it?

It's just coloured smoke, what's good about it? This is what nobody has yet explained who likes them. When you see a sea of flares at a foreign ground, I can understand how it looks impressive and could make for a better atmosphere. One rat setting a bit of coloured smoke off away at Luton isn’t doing anything for the atmosphere at all, so why do they bother? Can anyone who is a fan explain? Please don’t just say “it adds to the atmosphere” because I’ve never seen an away end erupt into collective song at the sight of a bit of red smoke.

That's if I hadn't simply gone ape shit. What is it about people not liking them - particularly when it's just one lobbed aimlessly and stupidly over the heads of fellow Stoke away fans - that means they are somehow spoilsports? - Afterword: One of my kids after the match said calmly that they [smoke bombs] make us look low rent, so you're not even winning over the teenagers.

Nice post, agree 100% with your points but i think reasoning with the unreasonable is a lost cause,you can lead a yob to knowledge but you cant make him think.

I may as well be writing this on the wall of one of the bogs in the Boothen.

A three year ban for letting a flare off. What a nanny state. They'll give you a year ban for farting next.

What could possibly go wrong. Who could possibly be affected. Who’s enjoyment of the game is affected. What injuries or incidents could occur? …….. These are the questions serious people in charge ask. Hence the ban? Let the kids who love their little fireworks ask other questions. 👍

There’s a real divide here and we won’t find any common ground. Burn the thread, preferably not with pyro/flares

You're the mindset of "well I don't like them so they're obviously shit and a pain", which they're not at all.

I’d actually not be totally against this, as long as they can prove that they’re safe and wouldn’t increase the risk to the stadium or occupants.

Currently, we are at NO risk of generating enough excitement for anyone to set a flare off unless they are sending a distress signal or have spontaneously combusted.

Posted on the match day thread but my daughter was hit on the hip by a flare right after they scored. Very lucky that it exploded against the concrete and not her legs as she was wearing shorts. She very upset and has a big bruise but thank fuck she wasn’t burned!
Thanks to the Stokies who came down to see she was ok.
I was ambivalent about them but after today they are a potential nightmare waiting to happen.
I’m still furious but grateful she wasn’t badly injured.
Said she wanted to still go to QPR though…
