Quote: In EnemyTerritory "Yep.. they were standing up and singing and everything.. it was terrifying in there.. scenes of real panic... thank god the stewards were on hand to come in quickly and calm the situation down. Hopefully scenes that we won't witness at a Rugby Ground again!!!



Taking a diplomatic view, I thought it was anabsolute joke. The stewards did not say a word about the standing up at the back of the stand once during the whole of the first half. It was not as though anyone's view was being blocked. And if it's against health and safety, then what are you saying your stadium is not fit for purpose? It doesn't say on the terms and conditions of the match day ticket that you can't stand up. It must be understood that some fans like to stand up and cheer on their team vocally. On Good Friday there must have been 50 or so Leigh lads stood up at the back and there wasn't a problem. The only time the leigh stewards did anything was in the second half. Once they'd had all the money they were going to get from Widnes fans, i.e from alcohol and food consumption in foyer. You can't have it both ways, something should have been said early on and the situation should have been clarified and when people hadn't consumed as much alcohol etc. If you ask me the LSV is not a place of corruption and only interested in getting as much monety as it could in terms of alcohl sales. Solution alcohol should not be sold full stop. Then there is no need for stewards to play little games waiting for people to consume alcohol before acting on anything. In my opinion of what i saw last night the stewards were an absolute disgrace and knew exactly what they were doing. I suggest the LSV should have it's alcohol license revoked simple as, then they are not waiting to rake in the pounds before ordering fans that they must sit down in silence with the arms folded.

Quote: imleythbenter "And how illinformed are you? the stand was actually designed for all seats bu they were never put in as a poll was made and as a result of the fans voting, the stand was left for all standing, it is about two days work to put in seats as all the relevant holes etc ar in place, and as for a safety certificate do you really think the council wouldnt allocate one to a stadium they are part owners of? get real sonny -by the way the Halliwell Jones doesnt do to badly despite having a standng area, you really are a bad troll icon_wink.gif

2015 - major missed opportunity, 2016 - stronger teams = harder task (no problem there then), 2017 - OMG What now!!!:953.jpg



The rules can't have been changed to keep Leigh out. The RFL refused to acknowledge the LSV existed and wanted to inspect Hilton Park for suitability for 2009. Thats how .............. they are and will continue to be.

I'm sure originally 10,000 capacity was the threshold but they increased it to 12,000 and I remember one of your directors saying so.

I agree it was irrelevant anyway given what happened subsequently.

The variance is/was absorbed in the North Stand Terrace which has not changed in design.

Originally, only the bottom half of the terrace was to be used; a temporary herras fence had been erected halfway up and the crush barriers excluded. However, not long before the stadium was complete it was decided to open up the whole terrace and complete the barriers.

In theory the terrace could hold over 5000, taking the capacity to something like 14000 but this far exceeds the stadium planning permission. It would be 40% greater than the associated infrastructure had allowed for.

What the Corpy have set the current limit to I do not know (bear in mind not all of the infrastructure and work on the village is complete).
