WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF WE HAVE NO POLICE? WAT WILL HAPPEN IF WE HAVE NO NACOB AT THE AIRPORT OR SECURITY AGENCIES AT THE AIRPORT. GFA NEEDS TO SIT UP STOP TACKLING THE ISSUE OF MATCH SECURITY WITH TODDLER FINGERS. GO TO SOUTH AFRICA, EUROPE AND SEE HOW MATCH OFFICIALS PLACE PRIVATE SECURITY, POLICE AT ALL MATCH VENUES. THESE STUPID INCIDENCES ARE PREVENTABLE. HOWEVER, IF THE GFA FAILS TO DO SO, THEN FORGET IT.
BRING IN SECURITY STAFF TO OCCUPY ALL ENTRANCES, SEATING AREAS, LIKE U SEE IN EUROPE. BRING IN THE POLICE TO PROTECT MATCH OFFICIALS REFEREES BEFORE, DURING AND AFTER ALL GAMES. IF THE SITUATION GETS OUT OF HAND, THEY CAN ALWASY CALL FOR BACK UP. ROWDY FANS WILL GET ARRESTED AND TAKEN TO JAIL. FAN ROWDYISM WILL ALWAYS HAPPEN, BUT IF THE GFA CONTINUES TO NOT PUT IN PLACE THE RIGHT TOOLS,THEN THEY THEMSELVES ARE CONTRIBUTING TO THIS CANCER….
