Hello Danny,
My name is Bryan Davies, supporter number 1230856.
I am emailing you about an incident which occurred before the match with Reading today which lead to me being ejected from the Stadium and having my season ticket confiscated.
I was sitting with my 11 year old sister, in the south stand waiting for my mum to arrive so I could go back to my seat in the east stand. My mum was taking a bit longer than usual to get to her seat due to her being dressed like a giant banana, however one of the Reading players kicked the ball into the crowd near to where I was sitting and began throwing it around, the ball found its way to me so I picked the ball up turned around and kicked the ball into the second tier.
I didn't think this was a problem as the two tiers were practically playing tennis with the ball throwing it up and down between themselves. The next thing I know I am being escorted out by some MCFC stewards, my season ticket was confiscated and told that I will be receiving a letter in the post stating how long that I will be banned for.
I can not express how disappointed I am at the actions of the stewards in this instance, this was a huge game for the club and I had gotten 100% behind the inflatables for the game and was really fired up for watching City get to FA Cup Semi Final for the first time in my life time.
I posted about what had happened on Bluemoon forums and their is so many people on the site who saw what happened and also agree at the levels taken against me were extreme.

I just feel that the way the club handled the situation was wrong, I caused no one harm and ultimately feel so deflated in what should be a very exciting time for not only me but City as a club.
Thanks
Bryan
