They will have more than that the crowd will probably be about 1900

[robininstockport]

I reckon 2000 split 50/50ish.
H block will go where they want.

Looking at the forecast on BBC just now , the rain will pass through Moss Lane about 2-30pm so no reason why the Chester fans cant stay in the uncovered bit of the away end...

[Mr Woolf]

Good to know that now no inclement weather is predicted we will have full access to the entire popular side

[Mr Woolf]

Two mistakes made today, the first was letting their fans in the pop side, the second was then giving them a larger area when it was spitting for five mins. Poor

I agree, looking at it realistically we will probably get a crowd in the region of 2,000-2,500. However, as the potential exists for a crowd of 3,000 (even though it's unlikely), they would have to incorporate that into their planning procedure.

Nobody on here predicted we'd get 4,500 for the playoff final, but it happened. The police (and probably "the club") would get absolutely slaughtered if they only planned for 2,000 and a much bigger crowd turned up, bringing with it potential problems beyond their planned resources.
 

the crowd will be more like 1,600. They will have about 600

Good shout : 1603

It was a very good prediction. What's your point?

Congratulations on completely missing the point. See you at Bromley x

Whoooooosh

[Jezza]

At half time more chester fans came from behind the goal and simply pushed their way into the sterile area.....

on the one hand well done to the chester stewards who at least maintained a reasonable gap between the fans.

Think we may as well as had them cardboard cut out police they have in garage windows for all they did..despite missiles being launched and the troublemakers easy to spot (they were the ones who spent all 2nd half looking at the alty fans actually standing sideways with no interest in the game) the tactic employed was to tell the alty fans not to react!!!! when I pointed this out I was told to shut up.

Just give away fans the open away end in future please....if away fans want to stay dry they can pay a bit extra and sit in the stand as we have to do at various clubs.

It's only coz the alty fans didn't react other than laugh our socks off at the schoolboys trying to antagonise us that it didn't kick off big time.......

made for an excellent atmosphere but once again we were hemmed in between that gantry and some metal fencing with a crap view so that some scallywags could keep dry and chuck bottles at us.

As Figgy pointed out earlier in the thread, there are several league clubs alone where away fans are exposed to the elements. You want cover then you pay extra. If it can happen there it can happen here.

It isnt ideal, and it isnt about being deliberately unhospitable. But we need to put our own fans first.
