FAMOUS Sheffield Wednesday fan Tango was thrown out of Pride Park by stewards during the Owls 3-0 defeat.
Paul Gregory – famous for being bare-chested during games – was involved in a row with stewards over seating.

Tango told The Star today someone was sitting in his seat and stewards told him to go to the front.

But he found himself next to the disabled fans who could not see when he and other supporters stood up - and ended up being ejected from the ground by stewards.

He said: "Disabled fans have the same right as anyone else to see the game and I was asking the stewards to sort it out. They kept telling me to shut up and write to the club."

More like the club should acually stand up for a supporter who could not have the seat he paid good money for and contact Derby for an explanation, but thet wont of course.
