Quote ="Beck2"Again, Saint Simon, you comment from a position of ignorance! Did you attend the match? The delayed KO was NOTHING to do with turnstiles. At 7.40 there was no queue at the ticket office nor at the turnstiles. The problem, which sadly will always be there,was access from the motorway one way & the A57 the other. When the new road is available this will be eased but not removed. A help would have been a policeman on point duty at the junction with the A57 to organise traffic flow.'"
To be fair, everyon'e assumptions are based on Eddie Hemmings REPEATEDLY telling us, when announcing the delay, that there were "thousands" outside. Sky's attempt's to big up the "Devilution" looks a bit silly in the end.
Having made the trip to yours from Hull on an Easter Monday, I can vouch for the logistical problems, but no attempts were made to delay the kick off that day and as a result I missed the opening 10 mins.
