Burnley Organisation 09:27 - Sep 22 with 6200 views | Bainesy15 | Don't know if it's just me but how bad was the planning for the away end last night! You expect to queue but getting in after kick off because we couldn't force our way up the stairs and then, after noticing the entire seating arrangement was in chaos we ended up a block away from where we were supposed to be sat and we had to split our group all over the place, with me sat on my own - at least I got a seat, there were loads perched on the stairs and not even in a seat they'd paid for! How do they cope with Premier League games?? | | | | |

Agreed, that’s why feedback and a clear plan going forward needs to be in place. We don’t all need to agree with it, but we should all understand it. | |

Burnley Organisation on 15:20 - Sep 22 by boromat | It was always going to be a problem due to the one ticket per person strategy. Lots of people wanting to sit with their mates rather than their allocated seat. As others had said in retrospect maybe a reduced allocation and none reserved seating may have been safer. But then we'd complain about the amount of tickets available. I knew what was coming and just got their extra early. The limited access into the stand was also pretty poor and the scanners at the gates weren't working at half of the gates. On a more serious note the kiosks were rubbish compared to our new setup. They can keep their Holland's pies!! |
Or, as has been said before, giving us the full stand would've been safer and not only allowed for more fans to come in, but the allocated seating to be less strict. The Burnley fans who were in the one half of the Cricket Field End could easily have been housed elsewhere. | |
