My argument was with people cooking themselves on the beach, not with those who like to sit in the Etihad stand.

Though I'm in agreement with Alison. My arguments against the Etihad are to do with glare from the sun, distance from pitch and distance from the subs bench. For daytime games, a seat at the back of the stand (like mine) ensures that you're not in the sun, though doesn't eliminate the glare or distance problems. Different story for evening games, but they're not a problem for me as they'll be on Sky so I'll stay home.

is it not possible to move the sky cameras to the east stand ??
and fill the lexus

Sky did this for one game, but never repeated it. Presumably the west stand is provided with facilities that they need.

There isn't an argument there though. People sit on the beach and enjoy themselves safely - also possible at a rugby match.



Wear a pair of sunglasses and suncream if you've got such a massive issue - like people do on a beach. I didn't notice many people complaining on Saturday, just people relaxing, enjoying the sunshine and the match.

This isn't an attack on you personally btw, just this ridiculous argument in general.

people could always sit in the north stand with the flatcappers

This sunshine thread must give the club ammo to think that some of our fans will find anything to moan about. I bet that there is no thread bleating about the sun on any other club site, In fact some up north would welcome the sun. NB I am a person who avoids the sun at every juncture. Maybe the club could sell Quins burqas for those who want to cover up.

...think you will find that the west stand is no longer the 'Lexus' but the 'LV=' after financial investment & insurance services founded in Liverpool 100+ years ago as the Liverpool Victoria!!

Posted this 'item' in the interest of accuracy & fairness if nothing else.!!!

One man's moan is another man's (or woman's) big issue. I'm not aware of any other club that attempts to pack its own supporters all into one sun-facing stand, are you?

I'd suggest that you quit moaning about other people raising issues that are important to them.

If you like standing and are a Wakey fan you only have the option of being exposed to the elements be it rain or sun

Think ourselves lucky.

Then put them in the West stand for SKY games and the fans in the East Stand and for non SKY games the fans can be put first

This argument is not about the sun its about where the best view for fans is from and that is the West Stand. I have yet to see a single person argue that the view from the East stand is better and therefore the argument is surely won by that

The Stoop is one of the premier venues in Super League

I prefer the east stand- the only reason I didn't get an east stand ST last year was because I didn't want to sit with the council house vermin(CHV) that were referred to as the east standers.(65 quiders)

Now happily we are all together as a family and all embracing- which in this day and age is commendable. A thoroughly enjoyable experience it is too.
