Good news!

I was caught up in the same fiasco!

Hooray.

About time too.
There are basically twice as many fans going through the North West turnstile as North East on a normal match day.

For example blocks A, B, C, D, and E are expected to go through the North west entrance
Yet the North East only deals with people in blocks F, G, H and I. Now this doesnt look like much of a difference, however on a normal matchday crowd blocks B through to G sell out. This means that there are 4 blocks worth of fans going through the North West turnstile and only two blocks worth going through the North East.

I will also add that I sit closer to the East stand than the West yet am expected to go through the North West turnstile. So clearly there can never be a 50/50 split even accounting for a sell out of the North stand.

Hopefully for the Leeds match it will be a case of quickly entering through the North East turnstile then getting a pint then going up to my seats in the North Eastern part of the ground, rather than as now walking upto the North West corner, then walking all the way down to the North East corner to get a pint and go to my seat.

I did say on Friday that they'll sort this soon and they have. Have faith in Saints management. They are responsive and know what they're doing.

They're two years and counting on solving the ongoing fullback issue.

Funnily enough, I saw on Twitter a tweet from Kilmurray at the Star to say that the soccer match tonight had been put back by 15 minutes because of long queues at the turnstiles!

It would seem that Saints might not have sorted out the turnstile problems.

They're geared around getting more people through turnstiles, not less.
