Campaign starts to warn of dangers of fans using flares and smoke bombs in grounds The poster warnings will be presented in the form of fans" chants: "Sing when you're coughing, you can't sing when you're coughing"; "Que sera sera whatever will be will be we're going to A&E"; "Banned in the morning, you're getting banned in the morning"; "We're by far the greatest team the world has never seen"; "We can't see you sneaking out"; "Don't go home in a St John Ambulance"; "Is there a fire drill?" and "I fell into a burning ring of fire." The campaign will run through club programmes, websites and on hoardings. Seventy-eight per cent of those surveyed would support more action against the proliferation of flares and smoke bombs. "Flares are used for marine distress and are designed not to be extinguished easily or quickly," said the Premier League. They contain chemicals and burn at temperatures of 1600C, the melting point of steel. Smoke bombs are mainly used recreationally in paintballing and war games, but these also burn at high temperatures and are designed to be used in wide open spaces. They are dangerous for those with asthma or breathing difficulties and can cause panic in a tightly packed crowd. They are not designed for use in confined spaces and it is illegal to enter a football stadium with one and set it off. "Over half of fans have now witnessed pyrotechnics at a match, and 36 per cent have been directly affected: 24 per cent have had their view of the match obscured, 10 per cent have suffered from smoke inhalation and two per cent have been affected by heat from a flare."" Last season, an eight-year-old was spotted bringing pyrotechnics into one Premier League match. "The child came into the ground with pyrotechnics in his rucksack and was seen passing them to members of an adult group who let them off inside the ground," said the Premier League.
