    This is unbelievable, as others have said if all clubs took this attitude the stadiums would be empty. So the Allam's can tell supporters "they can die when they want too" but a fan can make an obvious joke and they get banned. Double standards.

    I actually read every other message there as I was sure it would turn out to be a joke. Unfortunately the only joke turned out to be Ehab as usual! Speachless OLM.

    It’s Nige’s fault.

    If he hasn’t got the team playing well the fans wouldn’t have seemed so damn happy. Then Ehab wouldn’t have had to find a way to stamp out that happiness.

    It’s ridiculous, it really is like they’ve got to do something to piss people off whenever there’s a hint of contentment.

    Yes but by his own admission, Ehab is African. Egypt is in Africa. Case dismissed.

    The Specials needs to do a charity single, "Free Mr. Lambretta".

    You can appeal a 12 month ban after 6 months but what they don't tell you is the appeal process takes 6 months.

    Do we really believe it is only because of the joke. OLM has been a prominent critic of theirs for some time and some one they have probably targeted ; the joke is just the excuse. I just see this as a continuation of their bullying attitude towards staff and supporters.

    Hopefully they have picked the wrong person to bully this time.

    Free OLM

    Free Original Lambretta, bring him on home to the KC,
    I want to see him walk down Walton Street again,
    Tomorrow.

    Repeat, preferably with a Hugh Masekela trumpet playing.

    Still stunned at the pettiness of this ban.

    Good luck with the appeal OLM. The letter is a clear sign they're not selling but clearly highlights why they should.

    I'm sure you are right, the truth hurts, and OLM has obviously touched a nerve.

    I wonder what the legal situation is with banning people like this

    The excuse for banning OLM was pathetic

    Is it just me or does the letter ban them from buying match tickets or attending other events like rugby, hospitality, etc? So members aren't banned. They don't buy tickets...

    I bet that it's an arbitrary ban imposed in a fit of pique and they assume the victim will take it on the chin.

    Wouldn't surprise me if their T&C's around this are sketchy and further delving would find them in breach of a breach regarding retention, use and publication of staff and customer personal information.

    It is an extremely badly worded letter, one would hope that a good lawyer could drive a coach and horses through the holes in it.

    The worst thing about it is its an indication that they intend to be around for some time.

    There is one good thing we can take from this. It's confirmation that what we say online does hurt the Allams and they don't just stand there laughing at us. I'd expect a ban myself, but as I haven't been in the KC for four years :emoticon-0172-mooni:emoticon-0173-middl

    I reckon it's ‎Ferdinando Innocenti waiting in the wings that should be the biggest worry for OLM. <yikes>
