Photo:  Official match photographers were unable to photograph the game because of the crowd lining the fence and eventually had to move out of the official media area to take photographs from another vantage point.

Disgrace surely the Lions President has to control his player’s !

If south have designated this area for media, shouldn’t they deal with a group of clearly non media in the space

I don’t believe that it says anywhere that it is a designated media area? so i don’t understand the issue to be honest

Anonymous said...

That last comment is wrong. There is usually a sign on the gate leading into that area that specifies it is a media only area.

That last comment is wrong. There is usually a sign on that gate on match days saying the area is media only. Ask anyone in the wet area and they will confirm it.

It’s the disrespect that is the problem this group is getting a bad image for the club sadly .

Anonymous said...

As in the wet area yesterday I did not see a sign on the gate saying media area, these young chaps probably have no idea it is media area, they are just trying to enjoy the game and support their local club, cut them a bit of slack or soon they'll be turned away from the beautiful game they are just trying to be a part of.

Anonymous said...

‘usually’ being the key word, I was at Darcy street yesterday and I don’t recall seeing a sign on my way in

Anonymous said...

I don’t think this reflects on the club at all. It’s the match manager who hasn’t done their job

Anonymous said...

I think that what those boys are doing is brining a sense of culture into the game, for years and years the NPL has been a dry atmosphere with nothing happening. Look at the games in the mainland that have massive crowds with their own ‘ultras’, nothing gets said about them. I think this is just a case of classic Tasmanianism, not wanted to see any change and wanting things to stay the same.

I would say it's the Match managers job to remove the spectators from the media area and obviously they didn't.

It's South Hobart members being jealous as their club has zero fans, no passion and the club is empty of culture, its a business, to make money, not to play football or to create community.

Whereas Kingborough is the polar opposite, a community club, with probably the best culture in the state.
And other clubs are following this, we now see Glenorchy with lots of fans, the other week clarence boys with a drum behind the goal, Launie City Juniors with flags and chants, Riverside fans with drums in the laka cup, and Devenport aswell.

These "Lightwood Ultras" have changed the game in Tassie and its creating culture and atmosphere at almost every club, South Hobart are just jealous that they are being left behind with no fans.
Its Jealousy from South Hobart, these lads did no wrong.

You can literally see in the photo above of these kingborough fans at Darcy Street that there is clearly no sign on that gate in the entry to the so called media area.

Actually the Kimgborough match manager was there in the media area keeping an eye on the group. The south hobart match manager was on his way to the area but the photographers had left before he got there. Everyone who goes to that ground knows where the media area is! It was a case of lack of common courtesy by the group.

Anonymous said...

Didn’t a bunch of 12 year olds from Launceston City take the piss out of the so called “lightwood ultras” the other week. Get over yourselves.

Kingborough has about as much culture as the Bagdad servo and haven’t won anything of note in 20 + years …

Anonymous said...

Standing with a trumpet and 6 other teenagers to then call a player from the opposing team a Nob when he's taking a corner does NOT mean you club has culture.
It's a suprise the staff at kingborough haven't addressed the behaviour of their u21 and youth players

So.. no connection with Walter's recent experience at Lightwood park then the barrage of insults on this, Walter's site
and then the occupation of Walter's bunker by little tooters. ..hmm, don't think so.

Anonymous said...

Sadly it’s all connected let’s hope the said person disappears finally.

Walter keep doing what you are doing we the football public respect you if others don’t !

4:03 are you iliterate?

Kingborough will win the treble this year, laka, the league and the finals series. The Hess riegn will begin and never end. Kingborough will be the biggest club for the next 50 years. South, Knights and Strikers are small compared to the lions.

Why was the Lions match manger there in the first place?
Wasn't this a South Hobart Home game?
This tells me that the Lions have to have an adult around as they must be treading a fine line.
As for May 26 2;36 PM They can be silenced in a way that you have no idea about.

I was in the stands so i might be wrong but I am fairly certain there was no lions match manager with those “ultras”

Anonymous said...

On what metric do you classify that Kingborough are the biggest club in Tasmanian Football? I don’t see any metric they come out on top.

My understanding is when both southern teams are playing it is 1 match manager from each side. Southern side has to supply 2 match managers when playing a Northern team
