Not forgetting the 200 or so in the home stand

It's difficult to obey the simple rules that are printed in the front isn't it?

You must exchange the away voucher for a ticket from the ticket office.

Simple really.

Sounds like you are preparing for the inevitable.

For someone who 'is not here to talk about attendances' you seem to be talking about attendances a fair bit.

We went to the ticket office and asked them if we needed to exchange the kids season ticket for a match ticket and were told to go to the turnstile and they would accept it as it is.

So we did follow the rules thanks. It just looks like noone bothered to inform the turnstile operators.

They have a pre-match meeting where this information is conveyed across FWIW.

Yeah, fair enough. I don't know what happened in this case then. They got in ok, so it all worked out fine.

Are you just making it up as you go along??? The turnstile operaters DO ALL accept junior away vouchers and yours was number 12 last night and thats the one they'd have been told to take?? Also they would never allow you to lift them over without the appropriate ticket!! Also the stewards outside had there been a problem could've resolved it by guiding you to the gate steward who could've issued you with new free tickets without the need to goto the ticket office as is the practise for away fans!

As for the South stand 800 give or take and it did actually look a lot less as it was not anywhere near half full and not too many in other parts of the stadium! And for the mathematicians out there due to netting the south stand when the full lot of netting is in place as it was last night the stands capacity is 2500!

ROFL. 1400 indeed.

So my 1,000 guess was somewhat generous.

Gi'ower. No raised elbow, no running in along the floor. No attempt to target standing leg. Just a mis-timed charge down. I wouldn't have even given a penalty for it, but then I'm biased. It was a penalty, by the letter of the law it was a sin-binning but as long as you have a hole in your head it will never, ever be a red card.
