Thought the atmosphere last night was great. Some Glasgow fans
in FE along with the regulars. They were friendly and enjoying
themselves. I thought the noise they made resulted in us upping
our noise level too.

Talking about "football syndrome" at Rugby matches. Two weeks
ago, I had an unfortunate encounter with a rude "steward" at the
Saracens game at Spurs' ground. I didn't in the end report it
(despite encouragement to do so).
Yesterday evening, I left my seat 9 minutes early & walked to
the exit to the right of the North Stand. I stood & watched the
last minutes with a long-standing friend there. We saw Riley's
try and celebrated with a "high-five". Because my hip was
hurting I partially propped myself against the guard-rail.
Then, a senior steward come up to me and shouted "Get out of the
way!!!!!". No "excuse me please" or "can I come through ?". I
didn't say anything, but was sorely tempted to admonish this
person for their bad manners. I was not obstructing in any way
at all.
This steward behaved in a rather rude manner. This person should
realise that I (indirectly) together with all paying fans,
contribute to their wages.
Yes... I get it that some fans can go over the top sometimes,
but when stewards are rude it is something else.
I have always in my life worked on the principle that if you are
polite to someone you will receive similar reciprocation as
such.
BUT, I realise I might be naïve in this assumption.

What is a 'Senior' Steward? Is it based on age? Or colour of
high viz?

I thought the Glasgow fans were excellent, good vocal support
and seemed to know their stuff - and most importantly all good
natured.

Sounds like you're in Bordeaux.
How's your team doing?

Why not? Your fella has the hump but declines to clarify. Did
they pass wind in his general direction or criticise his shade
of lipstick? I've always enjoyed my trips to the Stoop going
back far too many years and never encountered any friction. What
was the problem?
It's not a too challenging question given the inference. Is it?
