Never understood why people just don’t sit in the seat that it says on their ticket. Wouldn’t have all this hassled then.
We are ok with the DW you can sit for the whole 90 mins and see every kick because of the stadiums design.Some grounds however I do and have had issues.The Emirates we were put in the corner quadrant halfway up and everytime the ball went down the line we couldnt see a thing and everyone stood to a man like a Mexican wave going down the line.Villa Park lower Holte End,now this is behind the goals so shouldnt be an issue but because the terrace is low and gradual if the guy in front of you is over 5 foot you cannot see a thing so again everyone stands same with the other end behind the goals.Ive found this at a few so called modern stadia as most of you will have.It usually seems to occur in the larger stadiums with big capacities.[/quote]
it wasn’t really the standing up that was an issue;
the source of the problem on saturday was that some people did not sit in (or stand in the location of) their allocated seat;
some late arrivals found that their seat was already occupied but on the whole the people who ended up standing in the aisles did so because they wanted to;
there were (at least) 2,000 seats and 2,000 supporters – if everyone had gone to the row letter and seat number printed on their ticket then the ‘standing in the aisles’ thing would simply not have happened;
poor by the stewards but also poor by the supporters[/quote]
My point exactly.
