THE CONCRETE ROUNDABOUT (TCR)

They would be brave to try a pitch invasion from up there tho

There are so many reasons fans in the top tier is an absolute pit of a decision by the club.

But the one I don't get is "stewarding costs" bollocks.

See that massive Yokohama tarpaulin thong? And the other few advertisements? Whack them across the first 1p rows, push the away fans higher so they can't get close to the pitch. Have a steward on each stairwell of the away end, and you wint see many getting on.
I don't think that's the sole reason, of course, but the worry of it, it'll likely contribute.

I get serious joy out of the fact they get the dearest area of a pretty soulless ground. I don't want them to have anything good. But even I can remotely sympathise with them for being pushed up there. Same for every other side. Just absolutely pointless, to me.

My plums just said, "it doesn't matter where you put those c*nts, they'll have their backs to the pitch anyway."

I arrived at 4.55pm last night for my shift , was told they had a load of ex military in for the away fans. Saw 3_blokes who looked hard as nails arrive and sign in , so that must have cost !!
It is for costs. Don't have to have stewards around the pitch at at the away end and one less pitch runner too

They could throw themselves off the balcony onto the pitch in a kamikaze gesture if they really cared. Very poor.

I agree with sticking them up in the corner. Why would you want away fans behind the keeper?

Is there a sweep on 'guess the value of the damage they caused that their club will have to pay'?

The away fans positioning saves steward costs: this is because there is only one way in and out of that bit therefore no need for more stewards covering more entries / exits.

Also, I believe it was in part down to the amount of drinking on the concourse that was happening with away fans in the lower tier. It was the reason there was the tarpaulin put up to stop the view of the pitch (same reason it’s up in Lewie’s) but would also have required a small army of stewards to stop it in some instances.

Krobbo was always a fan of sticking away fans up in the Gods, as a way of getting a marginal advantage, whenever he was allowed. I didn’t always agree with the gobby Scouser but I think he got that right.
