Interesting idea to split the away end as you suggest, what area do you think would sell more ticket, i would put money on it that the drinking, standing, smoke bomb area would sell out.

Why does everything have to be "enhanced" these days? Flares, drums and mobile phone lights, prancing about to both of the songs in the Argyle repertoire.
What happened to a good old fashioned punch up or rumble with the rozzers ?

Can the away end actually be segregated into three sections with one housing the Karrimor hiking boot wearing dullards who will sit in silence apart from when jeering and berating our own players? Clearly, the notion of consuming alcohol within the immediate vicinity of a football ground is so obscene that I’m sure the concourse underneath could go without (more booze for the unruly delinquents). Everybody is a winner.
Recently went to a game on the continent where there was about 5000 ultras behind the goal, standing up and chanting all game with flares let off through out. At the same time, the other 2/3 sides of the stadium was reserved for fans who like to sit down.
Worked perfectly and both groups were happy.
I hope the one smoke bomb that was thrown onto the pitch 20 metres from any fan has not ruined anyone's weekend. And on a serious note, hope no one was hurt from this.

The difference is not important. Both are pyrotechnics and are banned.
It's important to me.people get so emotional over the smallest thing.cant I have my little winge as well?
It does make you wonder though doesn't it?
I went to the Krakow derby and flares were used by Cracovia supporters to set light to the stand.
The pitch was not visible.
It did not improve the atmosphere.

Flares certainly burn that hot. Melting point of iron isn't far off that temperature. Smoke distress signals or smoke bombs are a lot less but still get hot. The online bought effects pyrro which I suspect this is are even lower.
Don't know the legal status on effects pyros but it's against the law to ignite a distress signal be it smoke or flare unless in distress. Not even meant to dispose of life expired ones by setting them off.. though I routinely did for training purposes .
I assume that having

With numerous Argyle fans having respiratory issues due to one poxy smoke bomb on Saturday, I can only assume that the death toll from this match overshadowed any potential atmosphere created by these needless thugs!

Course those breaking the rules wanting to stand couldn't have moved there could they? I can stand and stood on an aisle to not obstruct as the only way to see the game. But it was not evident to anybody on the right side that there were empty seats anyway. Sorry to ruin your brilliant theory. Wouldn't want to do anything to spoil the selfish standers day would we?
