Hi Fred

Did'nt think it would take you over 5 hours to volley back...............

Where is Matt when you need him for for back up ? ..........seriously I go watching non-lge on a regular basis and see generally nothing more than good banter.........
accept your point about FCUM (especially in their early days) and teams like Carlisle when they were in the Conference...........but we are talking Unibond and Vodkat football , and in all honesty mate you are wrong. Examples being the last 3 matches I've attended.........Glossop North End........Woodley Sports........Lancaster City.......total number of crowd stewards at all 3 combined was NIL ( honest to god ! ) and this is the level of football and crowds similar to Genesis.

Ps I've even seen a few idiots at various rugby games but do we have a serious problem.................I think not !

Peter please read what I originally wrote then tell me that the football riots didnt happen during the 70's 80's and 90's and that Hillsborough, Heyshall, and Glasgow disasters didnt happen.
The lsv is goverened (as are ALL FOOTBALL STADIA) by the same regulations as are the football league clubs.
Matt also works at a Football, league ground and probably knows a little about the regulatuons that govern that ground well its news day again Peter as those same regulations govern the LSV stadium.
Im not talking about Genesis Im talking about WHERE THEY PLAY, that governs the regulations not the league, its the same laws. Or am I just

I just wish peple would read whats written and not what they think is written.

Think they managed to get away with it a little more at HP because they simply weren't the same number of stairwells and exits etc. It must be said that there's probably half the number of the stewards on duty at the LSV as there was during the latter part of last season, but it's got as much to do with the council being scared of a lawsuit than anything else.

The place just isn't designed for non-league football, nor indeed Championship rugby to a certain extent. All well and good with hindsight, but maybe the place is just too big in terms of both capacity and operations.

Maybe, but on the other hand, it's on the lower end of what's acceptable (capacity wise) for Super League, and that has to be the rugby clubs aim.

It's a difficult situation, but the town has a modern facility and, unfortunately, the modern rules to go with it.

And if anything Dave you've merely backed up Peter's point, with Halifax historically being a league club and only in our league by an accident of finances.
