Ah of course. And I guess he thinks that the CEO/Secretary of ACL is a different Nicholas John Eastwood...
Ah of course. And I guess he thinks that the CEO/Secretary of ACL is a different Nicholas John Eastwood...Arena Coventry Limited, actually!
Just read the Companies House file on ACL. The list of former officers made a shiver run down my spine!
Yeah, undoubtedly ... and the owner of >75% of the shares of ACL and Wasps Holdings are different Derek Richardsons too!Ah of course. And I guess he thinks that the CEO/Secretary of ACL is a different Nicholas John Eastwood...
Hippie! :happy::emoji_v:I bet if Richard Wright of Pink Floyd was still alive and they reformed for a few concerts, they'd pack every venue out! There are some that have had the following and always will, and others that are shite!
Same here - six family members in total and not a single 'tut' uttered.I find this a bit odd. I had no issues with the Rolling Stones concert last year. There was an orderly queue to get in which took about 20 to 30 mins bit that's was about it.
He was our (CCFC) safety officer from the mid-90s until he was basically forced out by Wasps as they wanted their own person in charge on matchday. He was snapped up by Stoke City, then in the Prem, as their Operations Manager, believe he is still there.
From what I understand when we moved from HR a lot of the stadium staff moved across to being employees of ACL. Seems since Wasps have taken over they have pushed out staff with CCFC connections but their recruitment of replacements hasn't been up to scratch. Very few people there with significant experience in the sector.
You had more than one adolescence?
Love, Light & Peace, Man! :emoji_v:Hippie! :happy::emoji_v:
the queues were horrendous, the toilets overcrowded, but worst of all the sound was crystal clearComplaining that the sound quality was bad!
It's a Spice Girls concert FFS!
Great gif
Such a shame we learn nothing as humans. Seems sheer luck that no one was seriously injured or worse and deluded organisers blame everyone but themselvesI went with my wife last night (last time I buy her concert tickets for Christmas!) we were stood on the pitch at around the halfway line. Got in about 5 mins before Jess Glynne started but the queue and queue management both inside and outside the stadium was atrocious.
Outside we was in a queue for turnstile 21 but then that spilt into about 8 different lines from the original queue we joined and we ended up going in turnstile 23.
Once in the stadium and queuing on the staircase to enter the pitch area and it was really tight but not management on how many was on the stairs and no managing the flow so people trying to get to the bar underneath the stand had to fight against the surging crowd getting on to the pitch.
When on the pitch it was fine to start off with, and normally standing at concerts done bother me, been in mosh pits loads before and at sold out concerts in academy venues around the country where they really do push the limits but last night was the first time I felt unsafe at a concert due to the volume of people on the pitch. It was rammed before the end of Jess Glynne but the crowd just kept coming.
Getting off the pitch at the end was a joke. We went to the Rihanna concert at the Ricoh and they opened the massive gates at the end of the stadium. Nothing of that last night, all coming off through the staircase, took 20 mins or so until the stewards had the brainwave of letting us use the exit via the now vacated wheelchair section to release a bit of the pressure on the staircase and unsurprisingly a couple of cat fights broke out between groups of drunk women all trying to fight for a tiny gap to get off the pitch.
Despite all that and reading comments on Twitter we got off rather lucky compared to some people experiences. Getting out the car park was relevantly easy despite then stewards jumping out of nowhere to stop traffic to allow pedestrians to cross. The only issues getting back to car park c via the subway was the bottleneck around the station. Glad I wasn’t getting the train the underpass to the station looked more packed that the pitch
It's interesting that the Twitter accounts who pipe up to get people angry at SISU are trying to defend Wasps about Spice Girls as well. Not another coincidence.
I'm sure she sees it that way as well!Luckily the gf has a broken ankle
Links? Don’t know where I’m looking on Twitter.
I'm sure she sees it that way as well!
if someone really opened a gate and let people in without checking tickets or bags then that person must be the only official of a sporting venue who hasn't heard of the Hillsborough disaster
If some of things being suggested are true, like opening the gates and not checking bags, then that's seriously dangerous and needs enquiries made.
Will be interesting to see what happens. There's uproar when the slightest little thing happens at one of our games and more restrictions come in so surely something this serious can't just be brushed under the carpet.In theory they should be heavily fined and loose safety certificate if they can't ensure visitor safety.
We've had people contacting the CWR phone in from queues outside the ground on major matchdays saying what a shambles it is.
Yep, absolutely dreadful abdication of their duty of care. I mentioned earlier that it must be a breach of their licence. It all comes from the cost cutting going on there. They're running everything on a shoestring now.Or the Manchester Arena bombing
I thought of that when saw all the little girls with their mums. Made feel sick thinking about abomb going off and killing them like it did in manchesterOr the Manchester Arena bombing
