1% isn’t significant but it’s a factor hence why I said “if” there would be some fans who had sleepless nights over it. If I was one of them I’d struggle regardless what a report said exonerating me as a report is only as good as the information give to it.
No one knows how many ticketless fans were there on the day or how much some had to drink. It’s impossible to. It would require people coming forward voluntarily to make any report 100% accurate. I think you have misunderstood my point I was making that I wonder if there were people out there who didn’t. As my starting point was we’ve always been told this sort of thing was a myth but you can see it with your own eyes on this occasion alone. It’s not the one or two climbing the walls you need to watch as much it’s the last few seconds ground level of people trying to get in.
It actually happened to me at the SOL 2014 when the turnstiles went off so a steward panicked and opened a fire exit to let our fans in however due to selfish drunken behaviour of our fans along with some that won’t of had tickets instead of walking slowly and calmly through the doors and up the stairs the surge cause one half of the fire doors to be wedged closed with wheelie bin on its side no one could see from the back of the crush with my leg/knee trapped between said bin and door. Despite my screams for help it’s amazing how many selfish people there are in the moment who just want to get into a game regardless probably due to the levels they have drunk beforehand. A report no doubt would’ve blamed the failure of the turnstiles working and the poor stewardship trying to get both doors open to let people flow in more comfortably. Not the impatient that caused one side of the doors to swing shut and trap me against it and a wheelie bin other side of me crushing me as people refused to retreat.
