Purpose built stadiums are easier to segregate, but you can still get into other areas of the ground. It is impossible to police/steward. The problem at BV is there is no natural segregation point because of the hospitality boxes. I don't know BV as well as your fans as I've only ever entered through donny road turnstiles and stood in the north stand. Would it be possible to put away fans down in the western terrace corner under the terracing there? Are there enough turnstiles in that immediate vicinity to allow it? Is the area big enough to accommodate away fans? All of this requires extensive planning by the club, certainly more than two days notice and this was a significant contributory factor to last nights debacle.

Last night's events suggest otherwise.

But the area where there was segregation was where the trouble happened ?

That's a nice attitude you have referring to us as scum. Maybe one day you'll grow up. Pathetic !

Have to agree Steady......there are some turnstiles on St. Catherine Street (below the new covered area at the bottom of the Western terrace.....but they are never open !!!!!
IMHO it was always going to be a mistake putting both sets of fans next to each other in the North stand, and sure enough the inevitable happened.
Hopefully the lessons will be learned, and what we should do in future is open the above mentioned turnstiles, and direct all away fans in to the bottom end of the Western terrace.

The whole point is that the stand was NOT segregated. Fans were mixed in, including 2 large groups from each fan-base.

Segregate it properly i.e. NO AWAY FANS ON THE NORTH BANK.

So I just dreamt the stewards stood in the middle then & the map on the web page telling cas fans where to stand then ?
Anyhow - I'm off to watch the u20's now ... to watch a decent wakey team & not that shower of poop from last night .

Winning 28-4 at half time if anyones interested.

good

Sorry to ask what maybe a strange question but which is the North Stand. Always have enjoyed coming to Wakey and standing behind the sticks, is this now the new stand therefore home fans only?

Behind the sticks is the North stand but won e home fans only I dot think. Problems V cas won't happen vs other sides I hope and believe

Yay! Under 20's did us proud anyway ... won 44-16

Yes. There was a lot of false bravado and kn@bheads on both sides acting like jerks. To try pin it on either side more than the other is fruitless.
