    Is the 0-3 one you're one about when our keeper - was it Bo? - saved 2 pens and The Beast had, well, a beast of a game? One of my finest away days was that.

    Did Duffy get one too?

    I remember our end shouting for a pen every time they got in our box.

    Yeah Duffy rings a bell but I don't think I'd have got that if you hadn't said. I also remember their fans fighting amongst themselves in the other end.

    I paid to get in in case you were wondering.

    OK I'll compromise, how about average chest height?

    My memory honestly told me Parkin scored 2. Was a great goal by him though.

    I often miss kick off
    It's the Allam's fault that I always fancy squeezing one more pint in before I leave the pub to go the ground...I'm pretty sure it's their fault anyway

    It's not hard.
    The police monitor the flows and have detailed info on how many people and when are coming in.
    If that is saved then comparisons and calculations are easy.

    It is absolutely down to the small delay in being able to scan again. And sometimes glitches that increase the delay.

    Course it's their fault. Donald Trump is their fault too, as is Patty.

    If these exact turnstiles are used at other grounds with no problem then what is the difference ?
    Do we have fewer turnstiles in relation to ground capacity then ?

    There also used to be more staff helping with the lines of people. Working hard to get people in faster reminding people to have tickets and passes ready it sounds daft but many people get to the front of the que not ready. .

    Also spotting stoppages and dealing with them quicker

    Until they were sacked with 24 hours notice. Some had worked for the club over 25 years.

    The same staff who were told not to check or stop adults getting in with child's tickets as this would slow the new system down and make bigger ques


    The stewards could then look after the safety part including searches and stopping que jumping

    The lad in the white T shirt walking away from that mob of Stoke fans is a City fan and he was knocked out cold a few yards further on. Brave that 30 or more onto one.
