Better call Saul Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Is it a tactical ploy So the away fans are not as close to the pitch ? , it does not look good on tv ! ! and we also do it at our home games ! Today our support was to big for just the bottom tier so is it a costing issue to open both ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today our support was to big for just the bottom tier so is it a costing issue to open both ? Word is that we stick away fans in the top tier because when it's raining, the bottom tier's stairs get slippy. Now as a Motherwell fan can I just say.....what a load of Health & Safety obsessed, over zealous, atmosphere killing pile of shite. I always like away fans in the bottom tier so we can all exchange pleasantries and add to the occasion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heartsfc_fan Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 The top tier is terrbile. You can't see the goal line (closest to you) in some parts. A poorly deisgned stand that has obviously been thrown up for the Old Firm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were about 10 odd jambos in the bottom tier, dunno if they were wheelchair carers or what, but only seen 2 in a wheelchair, so not sure how there was 10 of them there.

chester copperpot Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Saw that aswell. Was the top tier full? Not even close. I sat in the front row of the upper tier with the wee man (at the very left hand side) and I'd say it was 3/4 full at most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont know how it passes a safety check as you cannot make out one thing the boy says in an emergency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must admit, I liked that one mate There used to be a group called the 'Well Boys but that disbanded, and the same lads that were in that just stayed as a group under no name as far as I'm aware.

Del1812 Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 This is pet hate of mine. From a marketing point of view it makes no sense. You want to create the impression for TV viewers that there are actually people going to these games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
