Slim Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 Just now, Tiresias said: So apologies maybe revealing me not having been for a while but i'm going to this (racist fascist twats permitting) with mate and his kids, i have e-tickets all on my phone, this may be stupid question but having only used paper tickets in turnstyles previously we always just gave out the tickets, will the guy on turnstyles scan all my tickets and then let next 3 through on it? Scan one barcode let one person through, scan next barcode next person goes through etc. They probably have an override button if they want to scan all three at once but not seen it done before.

Pokerprince2004 Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 Not sure how true it is but apparently the game on Saturday could be played behind closed doors now due to protests Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That the police have been briefing some local organisations that this may happen. What a fucking mess. Why can't they just make the EDL meeting illegal. Use some of that emergency covid lockdown legislation, that must be knocking around somewhere still 🙂 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s sad that the idiots have won but in these days public safety comes first. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFEE Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 The game will go ahead as normal IMO. Would be very surprised if it didn’t. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

M4 Posted August 8 Share Posted August 8 Going into town and to the game on Saturday with my 2 little boys, so starting to feel a bit of concern over all this. I suppose the best plan is to get near and into the stadium as soon as possible? Hopefully, everything is smooth enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd maybe head to the Stack before the match, can't see anything happening in there. Not that I can see any trouble happening now with the sentences being dished out already.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted August 8 Share Posted August 8 It'll be focused on Monument I would imagine, and maybe some people walking up from Central Station if they've travelled to cause trouble. Hopefully it'll be a lot smaller than it would've been before this week. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elliottman Posted August 8 Share Posted August 8 Maybe I'm being naïve but I think after the way the last 24 hours have gone I'd be surprised if it really kicks off. Maybe a few numpties here and there but like Ian says, nowhere near as bad as predicted at the weekend. Hope so anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
