There was a new stewarding team on duty at Edgar Street last Saturday. However some supporters felt that they were a touch heavy handed in particular given this was a friendly.
BN understands that the club may respond to some of the issues raised later today.
Below is one supporter's view sent to BN.
I was shocked at the way they started to man handle our regular older supporters away from the corners of the meadow end . As you know there was probably only 300 supporters in there and this was some 45mins before kick off .
I found out later from a steward that I recognised that we have hired this new company and only a handful of our regulars were retained by the new firm.
We had great stewards always friendly and always chatting to the regulars helping some of the less able up and down steps etc .
I am so annoyed with the decision of the club to make this decision.
The cost of all those security guards yesterday would off been massive and was totally unnecessary. When we are short of funds and have little budget left for a squad of players!!
I know I won’t be the only one to question this decision by the club.
I was so disgusted with the way the guards acted and the sheer amount of wasted money spent!!!
Apologies for emailing you about this subject but I felt I had to get it off my chest .
If they continue acting like this I will certainly whether I will continue supporting the club I have followed for 55years .
Thanks for listening.
