Boddy is powerless to do anything if the police make a decision like this
I would like to know what Boddy is going to be doing going forward. If the away ends holds 6,000 and we can only cater for 4,000, then that is an issue and I suggest they do something about it.

Sounds like 29,000What’s the actual capacity for football if we have to have a chasm between fans then?
There is apparently 32,753 seats with 6K of those in the away - guessing that's approximate. That's would only put it down to about 30K with segregation but its been said a couple of times the balcony can't be used, no idea why, but if that's true that will take more off. At the moment I think a couple of blocks are for people who want to social distance so that will knock it down a bit more.What’s the actual capacity for football if we have to have a chasm between fans then?
'Small time', you say? Our own FA once returned a sizeable allocation from the Austrian FA for a qualifier a few years ago.It’s a bit small time really from all concerned to give a club tickets and then reduce the number.
Definitely been fans on the balcony this season, not many but some. Thats how the Fulham trouble started.There is apparently 32,753 seats with 6K of those in the away - guessing that's approximate.

Put it this way I don't think we need to worry about not being able to get a seat just yet!
I think it was the parking restriction zone is far too largeWasn't the original justification for the small number of parking spaces and massive no parking zone that the stadium would be easily accessible by public transport?
Why build the station then?Was extra trains on match days ever realistic though I remember this raising its head some years ago and BR knocked it clean on the head due to cost explaining the knock on effect through specials was massive.
True, but the total lack of mixing in the concourse due to its construction will trump all of that.It would make more sense to have away supporters at the Telegraph end, park the coaches immediately outside. That deals with the main bulk of fans which then would make it easier for the police to deal with any that are going back towards the station.
Will there be trouble with Brum fans? I can't remember seeing anything about any trouble with them when we were at St Andrews unless I missed it.
I've got a feeling part of the funding came via the EU so they had to crack on with the station knowing it couldn't be used for its intended purpose.Why build the station then?
One of my workmates wants me to go round and have a chat with his 14 year old son.Apparently he got caught throwing stones at Derby fans.His parents have confiscated his season ticket and Stone Island jacket.This is going to be fun.
There was loads of trouble with them when we played them there in the cup match
That doesn't mean there will be trouble in this game though, I doubt it really

There has been trouble virtually every time we've played them in Cov, including in the midweek game back in 2006.There was loads of trouble with them when we played them there in the cup match

They're going to put on hot air balloons to the station?
It’s ok I’m sure the U.K. government will give it to deserving causes nowThe European Union giving money to projects that are complete white elephants? Doesn´t sound like them at all.
Bit like the stadium then,I've got a feeling part of the funding came via the EU so they had to crack on with the station knowing it couldn't be used for its intended purpose.
You'd know all about wanking.No one is cheering them on so its a fucking wank post
Some basic sartorial advice for starters one would hope.Anyone know what the lad in the grey tracksuit got in court the Monday after the Derby game?
What fucking space cadet decided adding those extra concrete barriers to the walkway down to the station would be a good idea?
Minor inconvenience for me, major ball ache for fella behind me and his mate in a wheelchair.
Whoever dreamt up that idea should be getting his p45 in the morning.
I noticed them on the way in and didn’t really pay them much attention. On the way out they were a major obstruction to the flow of the crowd, also very difficult to see in the dark and also the crush of the crowd. I’m not sure what they were supposed to do.What fucking space cadet decided adding those extra concrete barriers to the walkway down to the station would be a good idea?

Must have been some intelligence that Cov v Swansea was top of the list for the Taliban.Big lumps of concrete are most usually deployed on the advice of counter-terrorism to protect crowded spaces from potential vehicle attacks. Not sure what ones you are talking about, but probably not specifically for crowd control
