Yes in recent years its been good to us, but after the demics got promoted, i never liked the away stand, and after going in the south stand for the semi in 04, i liked it even less.

Whats going on with the concourses in there, its like a bloody rabbit warren, so enclosed and claustrophobic, trying to use the gents at half time yesterday was ridiculous, one door in and out of the gents, you couldn't even getinto the queue from the stand at one point.

Really really wouldn't like to be in there if there was an evac in place.

Write to Halton Council

The emergency exits are via the corners of the pitch are they not? You wouldn't be forced into a burning stadium, if they were doing an evac it would be everyone forwards towards the pitch and out via the open corners.

Kallum Watkins has the right idea, next time you need a dump just nip behind the video screen, no queing etc until it catches on.

one lad had a in the concourse whilst waiting last night,

The concourses are small, but they are made worse by people smoking in them and the toilets.

The police could have had a field day chucking people out and issuing fines.

The concourses look like a Soviet Gulug, not that I have ever been to one. But the Stobart Concourses are how you would imagine a Siberian Gulug to be.

Why was the game general admission also? Even coming into the ground over an hour before kickoff it was like a cattle market. 3stands rammed and the one empty(which was the main camera angle for sky sports) does not make sense. Considering it's what we would class a new stadium it seems as though they are only set up for small championship crowds. It continues to amaze me how clubs do not capitalise on big crowds or get the organisation right?
Pity as we seem to love playing there!

clubs shoot themselves in the foot when they try certain marketing techniques to get you to panic buy, if fans think there will be no room they won't walk up, how many extra Wire would have gone if they'd realised one stand would be half empty?

I said years ago that I was amazed they got a safety certificate.

I was in the North Stand for the semi last year. The concourses looked like they were from the old Naughton Park and that the stands had been placed on top of them. They are very narrow and don't seem particularly safe to me.

In comparison the concourses in the East and South stands are quite a bit bigger.

Went in the South once for Widnes vs Cas
