Bad day at the Office?  ;)

We have just come back to our hotel after watching the womens olympic boxing at the ExCeL centre.  Jesus what an atmosphere but it still didn't beat Birmingham away in 86  :)

Went to a couple of events for the Commonwealths in 2002 but the atmosphere down in the big smoke is something else.

Good luck tonite Alty!

Just at the ground and stewarding for a FRIENDLY is just over the top, if it is such an effort to host this game (ie if you have to segragate to this extent) then don't play these sides in pre season.

I rekon with the amount of people I saw heading away from the ground for a pre match pint as the bar was inexcessable till 7pm the club have lost out on potential money.

And before the stewards brigade come on here saying this is how we have to do it, I refer you to my earlier point of not playing these sides in pre season. Its not mandatorry.

I guess you were not there then a couple of years ago when FCUM fans decided to charge little kids who got punched in the face - disgusting scenes.

Of course not all FCUM are scum, in fact there will only be a very small number, but if they turn up again and decide to fight then you would be the first to complain if there was no stewarding.

I was actually and stood on the golf road next to the person who got hit and had to pull one fan off swayin' dave to let him get to saftey. But may I point out we have played them twice since that game with NO trouble.

Stewards aren't just in the ground to stop fighting. They are there to help ensure everyone has a safe and enjoyable visit to Moss Lane and to assist in the event of unforeseen problems. If someone is taken ill, for example, it is comforting to know that the nearest steward is within easy reach and that they are properly trained to provide effective assistance.

It's not all about fighting and bad behaviour.

Did I miss something?  It wasn't segregated tonight was it and I saw fewer stewards that usual?

Agree with the original post though about that ridiculous sterile area.

Hope we can move the fences up to create a small sterile area should it be needed.

Never got a problem with segregation, in fact I love it as it keeps everyone together on the pop side. However that is just treating customers badly to have a huge area like that and displace people from usual places.

The Chequers end is a the away end, if away fans want cover, they should pay to sit down.Displacing such a huge percentage of regular attendees is not good.
