The Safety of Fans in the North Stand


TAD said:
To be fair some people in the south stand were previously season ticket holders in the north stand and were shifted by the club once before (to accommodate the black cats bar possibly????). They should not have to move again and I think the south stand is the last place the club should or would move away fans to.

we were moved from the premier concourse and cannot wait to get back there, i will give the same answer we got that the majority of the south standers said shut up and get on with it, if the club decided that the away supporters had to be moved to the south stand then they would be given no choice just like we were.

Going against safety committee for the sake of selling 500 tickets is pathetic, someone has fucked up and the club should tell the fans why

We need to ask the question mate. They may have made £15k today but they’ve probably lost SC holders

Something over the last couple of years has gone wrong with the club and it needs sorting. Even under Short, this mess wouldn’t exist

So put up a net and the problem is solved without creating more problems elsewhere

I have a photo of the glass bottle in the row behind me.

As per usual they refuse to acknowledge they have a problem. Coming out of the ground this afternoon some stupid tart even tried to blame our stewards.

Can you report it to the Police?

Plenty getting their overtime in today but not wanting to get their hands dirty with the Coventry scum.

They should be all over the CCTV footage this evening.

I know, imagine the outrage it would cause, however some thickheeds on here think it’s the only place to put them

Tbf if south standers moved to North and we kept the upper tier open and had home fans in that entire stand it would be much better.

Seems daft splitting that end when you could have it all home fans. Just have one end of the ground away fans and the other end home fans. It's harder to join in singing when half the fans are at each end as sound there doesn't travel well and by the time it doe's its way behind so everyone is out of time so it barely happens now.

That being said I can barely remember it before the away fans got moved there and I sat SW at the time.

Good lad. You are wasting your time asking me mind but Im sure someone can help.

As a general point I can understand the debate re the placing of away fans but what we should remember is Coventry fans are scum and even our nearest and dearest have not behaved as low as this lot today.

He'd have a field day laughing at me. To get through the 90 mins I have to sit on a gel cushion to help absorb the pain of arthritis in my spine and I have to push a scarf between my arthritic knees and the cold metal rails in front of me. Even then it's a pain filled 90+ min's. I also totter to and from my seat with the help of a walking stick. Taking the piss out of the elderly and infirm is easy isn't it.

I can understand your view mate but why should all away fans have to suffer because of this scum.

Hopefully CCTV will catch the Coventry supporters who did this but if it hasnt I would invest in better CCTV and make sure that when Coventry visit us again they are left in no doubt we are watching them.

Lets be honest it is just this fan group. Most human beings, never mind football supporters, never stoop to Coventry's standards.

The frustrating thing for me is, the club knew this was a Cat C game and yet they sold another 500 tickets knowing it would make general sale.

Btw, happy to share the photo if someone wants to post it.
