Disabled viewing in the West Stand

[duncan bulgaria]

Not wanting to start a massive issue here , but last night i sat near a Wheelchair bound fella and his pals in the west and if you sit in the west you will know that they only have a possible 6 spaces where they can sit .

The gripe i had was that last night night this poor lad had to enduer the whole of the first half staring right at the fat arse of some youngster who proceed to stand up for the whole game .

He seemed totally oblivious to the fact he had a disabled chap behind him and it was a real shame , it was more of a shame as the stewards could and should of been doing there job and making sure this lad could at least see some of the game .

I only hope that in the new stadium that the disabled viewing is thought through properly so as this scenerio doesn't happen again .

I would be fuming if i paid £ 20 only to haved watched a third of the game

Don't do confontation anymore , learnt my lesson a few times as every row i have ever had has never been about me and always sticking up for mates etc when out and about .

It's sad when things get to that stage , but i'm a lot more chilled in my old age , but still doesn't mean i can't get angry about it , felt really sorry for the guy and heard him say that the stewards had seen what was going on and decided on not doing owt !!

watched the england schoolboy tournie at the hall,sitting behind me was 3 horrible brats aged around 7 with their socalled parent.these kids were more interested in kicking the back of my seat or waving a poxy flag in my boat,after suffering this for around 30 seconds i said to the geezer who i presume was the dad "mate if my seat gets kicked or that flag comes near me again i will get well annoyed" to my utter shock the kids behaved.

The standing issue is one that urks me every time I attend the Hall with my old Dad. He like to sit in the west but everytime theres any hint of goal mouth action people immediately stand up by impulse weather their own view is blocked or not. The only goals he gets to see are long range shots or deffender cockups as by the time he's up and out of his seat, with my help everybody else is sitting back down! I know its only natual to want to stand and jump about in celebration when the ball hits the back of the net, but if people would only be a bit more conciderate and control their emotions during the build ups, people like my Dad and many others I'm sure like him would enjoy a game as they are entitled to and also feel a lot more eager to return the following home game.

Standing is annoying but even worse for me is late arrivals! Can't they be made to sit in a row at the back so not to push past people to get to their seat? I've turned up late a few times and would be happy to be in the "naughty seat"!
