FWIW, we (two of us) could not go up the gangway due to the police. We were advised to use the second gangway to the right. We went there and were shown to the front row of the top tier where we could stand (the seats were all tarped off). After abut ten minutes stewards found some empty seats, spaces near the top of the stand and directed us there. TBF those stewards were fairly helpful.

Anyway, there we stood but noticed more people on the front row stood, so not sure if too many tickets sold or what. Unfortunately, i needed a piss and it was a bit of a nightmare going down the stairs to the toilet in the first half.

End of the game we nearly missed our coach as the police gave us totally wrong directions. Nigthmare!

How did you get the wrong directions? Did yours not drop you off there? Ours was in the same place we got off and walked down from the car park.

I was on that row!
The stewards said they'd find us seats but they couldn't find any.

If so many people had piled into the first block why weren't there loads spare in the 2nd block?

Here we go. People couldn’t get to their seats because our fans had already taken them.
I know because I was one who couldn’t get up the staircase as well.
And while we are at it, who the f*** we blaming for throwing bottles at our fans?
your one experience doesn't meant others couldn't get to their seats because the stewards wouldn't let them

people keep saying this happened but here you are

Also FWIW I think there’s a couple of debates going on and it’s got all twisted.
yeah, there are people who sit any other peoples seats but that happens every away rightly or wrongly but there's reasons it was much, much worse in the away end this weekend.
