Also, if football fans have to be in specific carriages, does that mean you'll end up with 8 half empty carriages and 2 absolutely chocker block past any H&S regulation limits?Heard on the radio this morning that they will have designated carriages and people in "pink vests" to manage them.
Rail staff with pink vests deployed to manage football fans
Pink vests because it is calming for crowds. They obviously haven't thought it through because you only need to look at how calming opposing keepers in pink kits are for drunken football fans.
Unless they just stop letting football fans on.Also, if football fans have to be in specific carriages, does that mean you'll end up with 8 half empty carriages and 2 absolutely cocker block past any H&S regulation limits?

This is the thing, people who dont support football seem to lump us together as one. All are the same and all can be treated like cattle. They think of a "good idea" but dont look at the bigger picture most of the time, or look at specific requirements sometimes. Children, disabled etc.Unless they just stop letting football fans on.
The other thing is what if it's a football fan on the lash and coked up or one in a shirt with his toddler? Surely the family could go in a normal one?

Hahahaha health and safety limits on trains. Good joke. They don’t give a fuck on trains, pack everyone in so tightly they can’t breathe. It’s a disgrace.
And one carriage, normallyThey have been for about 3 seasons now. Only one an hour though.
Only if you are wearing a pink vestAre trains stopping at the Ricoh station on match days yet?
YesAre trains stopping at the Ricoh station on match days yet?
Btw, the story in the link has nothing to do with 'special trains', it's just a story about some train support staff now wearing pink to have a supposed calming effect on issed up racists*
*based on the examples where the immune from any criticism scousers apparently did racist chanting
Think you are are right about JH and the football specials - visionary!!Be a good excuse for Panorama or World in Action (ask your parents, kids) to re-make their documentary of the 70s on how certain clubs became intent on performing internal remodeling of BR's rolling stock on a Saturday afternoon!
Wasn't JH credited with inventing football specials for Sky Blues fans back in the 60s?
Brighton/Bums..........Giggle giggleThink you are are right about JH and the football specials - visionary!!
On a related point, Brighton match tickets give free train travel to the ground for the game from the town centre for all fans, if the Ricoh had a decent train service that might help drag a few more bums to seats.

Remember getting the train to games in the late 80s and they'd use old smashed up carriages that sometimes didn't have any seats or windows!
