BessexRED Posted February 14, 2019 Report Share Posted February 14, 2019 Also @wood_red yes I believe it is pathetic and embarrassing the club are now limiting clubs to 2,600 because of the sheer incompetence of A&S police before, during and after the game against Swansea. I’d be fully on board with it if they were limiting away allocation to get home fans in the Atyeo when the demand is there, but they’re not.

Yes, I fully believe it given we’ve given exactly the same number to Leeds. We have to give Leeds (league game) up to 10% of capacity. We have to give Wolves (FA Cup game) up to 15% of capacity.

To me it’s a sideshow to the main event - the Championship. I’ll watch on TV. I like to hear what unbiased pundits say about us. I don’t disagree with your comment and my head says it’s an unwanted distraction. I hope Lee gives the squad members game time but we still give it a good go. We don’t want or need any injuries to affect our promotion push. I wouldn’t be overly disappointed if we went out but I can also see the merit of continuing our winning streak as well as the possibility of a favourable draw in the next round and a potential Wembley semi final Torn between League & Cup - Yes! Prefer the promotion party though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well it won’t be ‘c’ as our resident police officer confirmed only yesterday that they have no input into allocation and it’s the clubs decision.

Numero Uno Posted February 14, 2019 Report Share Posted February 14, 2019 2 hours ago, BessexRED said: Nope, only 2.6k. Pathetic from the club, embarrassing. No, the embarrassing bit is people can’t behave themselves when a club sells a full Atyeo allocation meaning future away capacities are reduced, whether that be by the club or police.

Other bits, yes and no- it seems OTT in the s82 area but don't know about hundreds of police- but as for the Swansea game, the late arrival poured petrol on the flames and then the original spark was the lack of police presence and senior stewards in that corner between Dolman and Atyeo from minute one.

JoeAman08 Posted February 14, 2019 Report Share Posted February 14, 2019 15% of 26500 is almost 4k. I am not sure what the Atyeo holds but with segregation it would likely be less than the 15%. Keep in mind what happened against Swansea and they may close off the two sides(1 closest to Lansdown stand and other closest to Dolman). This I reckon would make it closer to the 2.6k. So perhaps something in the restriction argument. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi @BessexRED, it's great to see a bit of passion but you seem to be constantly really really angry about this attendance/ allocation thing and are digging people out in a pretty OTT way about it for very little. If the rozzers or SAG have limited the allocation, why are you so incandescently angry at the club? Why do you seem to care so much about the opinions of away fans that you're prepared to ceaslelessly insult fellow City fans? You're going to give yourself an ulcer getting this ragingly angry about what is, let's be honest, a trifling concern that has little material impact on your life. Have a great afternoon.
