How will the Portsmouth fans be accommodated? Seem to recall them.being guven the whole of one end in the past ? Not sure I would be comfortable with the current arrangements for away fans when it comes to Portsmouth.
Think they only ever had the whole end in cup games didn't they? League games are always the standard allocation.
They weren't given the whole end for the two fa cup ties, had a larger allocation but we still had fans in the Northam. I always used it as an example in recent years when we started giving the whole end unnecessarily. Skates will get less than 3k I imagine due to extra segregation. Rumours of a mutual agreement between clubs of 2.7k each.
With police agreement. The way it’s set now, even if we got them in the cup, I don’t think they’ll agree to any extension.
I really hope the club are open to rethinking this, though I suspect not due to the fanzones. Undoubtedly a failed experiment at this point. It's all well and good saying you can have a single end to lead the singing but if they can't be heard at the other end of the ground then it's never going to work.
**** the fanzones (they only get in the way and cause a bottleneck for those who want to get out) and put the stadium back to how it was.
They're a money spinner though so they won't bin it. The bottleneck did improve for quite a while but was awful again today. Probably just because fans couldn't go round the kingsland though.
Yeah, I sadly suspect they won't bin them off entirely, but they do need rethinking so that they're not there right in the main pathway. I got caught up in bottlenecks at both Wrexham and Stoke so I've yet to see an improvement there
