Around 6ft 2 inches tall and wears a lovely grey jumper with an Accies badge on it.
How does he get away with it?

That’s why I thought it odd that Ronnie genuinely seemed to be unaware off the problem of old firm fans on the home section. I would have expected the club safety officer to be aware of this and actively addressed the issue well before the fans raised it at the last forum or through the SLO. But maybe it’s easier to shout at fans than deal with serious issues.
The safety officer responsibilities include:
Liaison with supporters and supporters clubs as required
Liaison with police, stewarding contractor, fire service, ambulance and first aid providers and council representatives regarding match and event arrangements
Ensuring match officials are fully briefed on safety procedures practised within the stadium
Contact with the officials of other clubs in relation to travelling supporters going to matches and visiting supporters attending the stadium
Overseeing and coordinating the operations within the stadium on match days to ensure the smooth operation of the event
Conducting pre-event inspection of the stadium to allow the signing off of an event checklist to be presented to the Police Event commander; ensuring that any concerns identified are highlighted for remedial action prior to the event
Attending the home pre-match meetings with police and stewarding contractor. Where necessary attend the pre match meeting for away matches where there is a likelihood of a problem with supporters
Monitoring stewarding levels on a match day to ensure that adequate stewards are in place and their tasks and duties carried out correctly. Also to review and modify stewarding schedules as necessary
Close consultation with police to exchange information on problematic supporters and those who breach the ground rules which could lead to individuals being banned from the stadium in line with the information sharing protocol in place. Tackling anti-social behaviour, such as excessive foul language, racial, religious or other such abuse should be treated with a high priority

Can someone remind me what his job is again?
I understand we have more important matters to discuss just now, but the guy really wound me up.
