The city clearly doesn't have the infrastructure for our game finishing at ten on the last Saturday before Christmas just waited an hour and a half for The train. Utter shambles.

Just say no that's not going to work.

Walked to Moorfields and got straight on a Southport train. About an hour all in after the 15-20 minutes or whatever it takes getting out the fucking wall. They need another exit. 52000 people squeezing through four or five tiny gaps. Fucking stupid.

There is an exit to Nelson dock that they had open for the first handful of games that they now close. Over crowding and crushing in 2025.

CHEER UP, PLUMS

Yeah that seems really bizarre decision, after Villa that was open and defo made it easier for their to be two sort of streams, people heading for town and those not. Everyone goes out the same recently and just creates a bad vibe.

It seems really mealy mouthed and adds to a real crush of about 12000 people heading through the same small gap

Leaving early to get on the train isn't what I envisaged, the logistics of getting too and from the ground is sucking whatever little motivation I had to go out of me.

I'd rather walk alone.

Very surprised to agree with you. I've never left early in my life but was really tempted the other night, just because a) we were obviously not going to score and b) so many people are going early the vibe is crap anyway - most of this will be better if we do improve but the lack of feel might not, 1,000s seemed to do an early dart when we were winning and had played well v Forest.

It’s because it’s a nightmare to get out, just queuing 3 times just to get back on recent road and then potentially queuing for buses or trains

Makes you wonder how it will cope if they ever do start putting big concerts on, as the crowd do tend to all exist at once....and many of the lids will be new to the stadium.

Yeah defo. In the end we got to Rigbys for one and it shut at 11 , I know not every game will be 8pm Saturday but can't blame anyone really who thought getting ahead of the queues was the right move

We did the same, but possibly a few minutes earlier.
The 12, 13, 15 and 18 all came within a minute or two of each other.

Mr B.C. Arriot esq

Read last week about his £20 MILLION worth of Hydrogen buses that have been parked up in the Arriva depot unused for over one year totally unused because they can't get enough of the correct grade hydrogen fuel that will now have to be converted to electric!

Had a quick pint after the game then straight on the Ormskirk train which started at Sandhills, so was empty when we got on.

The trains and Sandhills is a joke at the best of times but horrendous on nights like that. 4 carriage trains, already busy from town, is just shite planning.

This city needs to get serious, they’ve had 5 years to plan for a stadium opening….we got some railings outside in a car park. And if it’s raining you get fucking soaked

Our mayor is too busy playing second fiddle to Manchester* like we are some backwater satellite town to get serious. The city doesn’t half remind me of Everton, just be happy with what you’ve got, accept your lot, what more can you expect etc. It’s a shambles but hey ho we might get a few bendy buses in another 3 years….

Couldn’t agree more. Birmingham and Manchester councils/mayors are front and centre when it comes to the development of Villa Park, Birmingham’s new stadium and Old Trafford

Liverpool it’s like a surprise there’s 52,000 trying to get home on a 4 carriage train

the lack of cover that annoys me (amongst other things)

It's treating fans like it's the 80s.

People pay a lot of money to go and watch a match and the station is shite.

"It's not too bad" which is what I've been guilty of saying just isn't good enough.

Cars and parking have been ruled out so they are forcing you into walking or Sandhills.

This is the thing for me - the whole transport shit show was so avoidable.

For Rotherham to come out and say they couldn't commit because they didn't know the ground was going to be finished and they can't build a station for use every fortnight - doesn't that miss the point with the whole regen masterplan for the area.

They are absolutely useless. The people trying to get the Baltic station going have been trying since 2014. Headbolt Lane took over ten years.

It would take Chariot and co on current form 10-15 years to get a station in there.

And you are quite right, even if Gobshite Inc at the Guardian had been right and the club had gone bust, the stadium was getting finished regardless and besides the regen project for the area needs it.

But no-one involved in regen in the city (or the third sector) think Chariot is any more than a useless party apparatchik.

I'm hindsight that's bollocks.

If they had plans oven ready but were concerned about the ground being built they would have rolled them out the minute TFG bought the club as it was obvious these are serious people with serious wedge.

Exactly, just not the services required. Plenty of jolly festive types heading back from town. Not their fault obviously but some thought would have helped.
