OT EVACUATED | Device signed as having been recovered, could NOT be detected by sniffer dogs

I heard that too , but I went to the U21's game a few weeks ago , both me and my 2 sons were patted down before we were allowed in to the ground.
Wondering if they pat down the sky sports workers every week?
 
Are there metal detectors at OT and football grounds in the UK? I'm trying to figure out how someone could've snuck possibly a bomb inside.

They have the handheld ones that they swipe over you at OT. They don't do everyone though and the search at the stile isn't exactly thorough.
 
I was just thinking I wonder will they have to carry out a controlled explosion before I read that tweet.

Does anyone know anything about such techniques? How much damage could it cause to the building?
 
And what the feck has that got to do with my post?

Learn to fecking read. I said I hope this isn't a sign of things to come in the UK stadiums.

A hoax doesn't call off a game you dumb idiot. Police apparently knew quite early and didn't want to panic everybody. The intelligence service would have advised police.

Let's not be too happy, if city lost we'll be the one fumming with the 0-0

It swings both ways
Or if we'd beaten West Ham during the week! Can you imagine.

not really, be abit like this

 
I have always questioned the ease at entering the stadium. I know they have a quick look through your bags but with so many people it's impossible to do a thorough job on every one. Not to mention if the weathers bad most wear massive puffer jackets etc.
 
In the meantime, come on Swansea! The Bluemoon meltdown will be hysterical if they lose today and we win a rearranged match.

They'd send in a robot first going on what they do if it was in a street. The infrared could detect explosives etc,then go from there

Oh wow, that policy is definitely going to change now. At most American sporting venues we have to walk trough airport style metal detectors.

What are you on about with him at all? It was obvious what he was getting at, but you are twisting his post and creating an argument out of nothing.
 
Home now. Little shaken since that's the corner I sit in.

Was well, well impressed with how it was policed though.
 
Really hope this turns out to be nothing, and not a precursor for the Euros. :(
I thought we'd see more of this kind of thing after last years events. Sad state of the world and our future if true.
 
I don't mind joking about a serious incident but there is a time and place to make them. During the incident when there is a lot of confusion and the situation has not ended is not the time.

Banned for a week.

Not sure why situations like this turn everyone into such children.
