Has this low life knuckle dragging idiot been identified and banned for life?
What an embarrassment to the club.

Is it just a coincidence. But no drum no flare ?
Perhaps the ‘flareist’ (yup made me laugh at my choice of word)
is a friend of the Drummer. If so that’s a shame as One of them has been
pivotal in bringing a better atmosphere to the ground and the other
possibly in costing the club money | | | |

Was a very large police presence today which I thought was unusual given there’s never been an issue between us and Barrow. These numbskulls are obviously costing the club money so good riddance. |  | | |

Sure someone posted on one of the weird Facebook groups there was "trouble with Barrow all over town", not sure the extra police are anything to do with the home fans or some planned bell ends came down from Cumbria, possibly both | | | |

Might be the Cumbria thing then. There were police lined up along Wilbutts Lane spaced out at around every ten yards or so.
Interesting to see two of our “casuals” at the far end of the Sandy today furthest away from the away fans. Maybe they didn’t quite fancy dancing on tiptoes behind the police today. | | | |

It appears that the drummer, among others, was refused entry today |  |

@TommyRAFC doesn’t seem too happy on Twitter that police wouldn’t allow certain fans into the ground today because of apparent ongoing investigations into events at the Doncaster game. | | | |

Evening all,
Glad to be finally celebrating 3 points at home.
In regards to today. A meeting was held this week between us ( Overcoaters ) , the trust and the club in regards to recent issues. The movement of the away fans further along Willbutts was something we had proposed at the meeting but had already been planned by the club in the week. From what I know this will continue where possible.
In regards to the policing we was told that games with increased policing this year ( up to Jan ) was, Grimsby, Stockport and Barrow. The increased police presence today was already planned before recent issues took place due to Barrows incidents at previous games this season. We was also told that Barrow apparently see it as a bigger game with it being a very similar distance to Carlisle and were expected to come in numbers. | | | |

Well whatever you all discussed Ben it worked. Whilst the steward numbers were noticeably larger there was was no hassle and still a good atmosphere - helped by the football of course. I do hope things settle down as having scores of police lining the streets isn't the Dale way - but it did stop any misbehaviour outside today. Onwards and upwards | | | |

Thank you. From all accounts the only time this year you'll see a police presence like that will be Stockport. The Mansfield game is apparently under review as well but all dependant on things leading up to the game.. league form, crowd numbers etc.
The trust will be releasing a summary from the meeting for those who'd like to know more to. | | | |

The Police officers along Willbutts Lane, Sandy Lane and Ings Lane today were excellent, I had my son and his two mates with me and the officers were friendly and very approachable to the lads when they had questions about being in 'The Force' for them. |  | | |

What a stupid comment, the drummer was there against doncaster and there was no flares in the home end, the drummer was at Carlisle, gillingham,Northampton, again no sign of flares!! |  | | |

Strangely enough (and I may be wrong) but I thought I saw an abandoned drum on the Sandy terraces when there was a surge towards the Doncaster supporters following the Dale goal…. | | | |

The bottom line is: there was a very good atmosphere in the Sandy yesterday without unnecessary percussion. The singing was good, the team responded and we went home happy
The drum is imo irrelevant. As are flares. No need for either and i don't want to see/hear either again. Just sing, it works

Couldn't agree more. I'm a displaced Sandy Laner due to the drum, but yesterday was able to watch the second half from behind the goal roughly positioned behind where Quigley scored. The atmosphere was excellent, even I joined in. I remarked to a friend, "ah the famous Sandy roar!" |  |

So it wasn't just me taken back in time by the Quigley goal
Hadn't heard that roar for a very long time (only recently returned to the Sandy after exile on Pearl St) | |
