Just wondering if it is open on Thursday or not?

If it isn't I wonder if they will have more than 2 turnstyles open after the last couple of times?

Best get there early then! I wonder how many of the people who missed 25 - 30 minutes of the last couple of games will stay at home this time and watch it on TV?

Best to get there early, yep!

Apparently the main stand is open. Would guess they would filter people into the CT Stand though for sure.

I'm already getting excited. Can't wait!

Hopefully they hav learnt from last time. Am all fr moving the crowd closer together, but last times turnstiles issues was a joke.

No, it's not - well it wasn't last Wednesday when we got our tickets. We sit in Block 28 and they told us it was closed. We're over by where the press sit.

That's where I would have preferred to sit as well, I much prefer to sit behind the goal than by the half way line as a general rule. The last couple of games I took my boy to we sat in block 28 (row X and row Z respectively) and enjoyed the company around us

Squeezing everyone into the Tesco stand for the JPT games is good from my POV. It creates a much better atmosphere.

Yes, it's good view and a good perspective. We've had the same seats since the Ricoh opened.

No, the CET is not open, they havent learnt a thing from last time...

The signs / gates will be as confusing as last time

People will be queuing in the wrong queues and will be even more pissed off than last time !


Well done keeping tickets at £5, but for gods sake, learn from your mistakes.
If people make me stand up and down several times up until 13 minutes after kick off again, i'm not gonna be happy.

Answer people is get there early.

Last JPT I got there at quarter past 7 and there wasn't a soul around at all. Straight in, not even a queue of 1.

Double the number of turnstiles for pay on the gate this time and another stand opened. No issues this time.

The crowd will be bigger than most league games this season so I imagine so.

No, the CET is closed.

I mean that last time, only the East stand was open, this time they are also fully opening the Lloydspharmacy stand. Two stands :facepalm:
