Was at a stand still anyway
Pedestrianise Longford
Bit odd that they suddenly decided to let cars drive up Winding House Lane when it was closed and loads of people were walking on the road. Saw more near misses than I have in years of going to the CBS.Absolute dream walking back to Christ the King and only added 5 mins getting onto the M6 from there. Would be happy for this to be permanent.
Is there some law against serving alcohol after HT? Otherwise I’m not sure why clubs don’t keep a bar open. Surely they’d make enough sales to make it worth it, I know there’s plenty of times I would’ve stopped for an easy beer at the stadium.On the above, why the determination to get everyone out as quickly as possible? Why close the bars after half time? I remember Brighton away a few years back we saw the train queues and just stopped in the stadium for another drink after.
That will be far too difficult for them.Bit odd that they suddenly decided to let cars drive up Winding House Lane when it was closed and loads of people were walking on the road. Saw more near misses than I have in years of going to the CBS.
They need to change the light phasing when they have roads closed. They're holding traffic on reds when its green for a road that's closed.
Leave the car get the leccy bike out, just ordered 3!Pedestrianise Longford
How will cyclists get up closed roads? Oh, I know. They will ride on the pavement and mow down pedestrians.Leave the car get the leccy bike out, just ordered 3!
On the pavement, take many of the alternatives, don't have to wait for anyone or anything pertaining to the regulations.How will cyclists get up closed roads? Oh, I know. They will ride on the pavement and mow down pedestrians.

what? Ride up closed roads? Don’t the rules apply to cyclists?Of just ride on the empty road?

silly me, of course they don’t. Speed limit’s especially, Or red lights.
They’re going to introduce Malc Calming Measures.So the plan was a huge success!
They used to have an engineer at the box at the top of Bedlam lane on a match day, he used to switch the lights manually to help traffic flow.Bit odd that they suddenly decided to let cars drive up Winding House Lane when it was closed and loads of people were walking on the road.

Please nobody mention electric scooters.They’re going to introduce Malc Calming Measures.
You just didPlease nobody mention electric scooters.
brilliant things, without them my uber eats orders will take much longer to arrivePlease nobody mention electric scooters.
No cooking, just think of the energy used?brilliant things, without them my uber eats orders will take much longer to arrive
Illegal to use on the public highway. Dangerous devices which should be banned,brilliant things, without them my uber eats orders will take much longer to arrive
We will have a long time to wait, but will they do this for Saturday afternoon matches?Disasterous move for those stuck in the car park and any motorcyclists who don’t cause traffic jams
it was intended to be prophylactic.You just did
and? If my dinner gets here quicker could not give a fuckIllegal to use on the public highway. Dangerous devices which should be banned,
i hope not ! one effect was that there were cars parked right up the Foleshill on the pavement making it more dangerous for pedestriansWe will have a long time to wait, but will they do this for Saturday afternoon matches?
I left early so didn’t see peak chaos. By the sounds of it some people didn't get out of Car Park A until 10:40 which would have meant I wouldn’t have got home till near midnight if I used that car park. Getting out of C wasn’t too bad having left the ground early. Others have reported traffic chaos around Longford which I missed - because I left the ground early. I did see multiple pedestrians crossing in front of traffic when they shouldn’t have - and this is the real cause of the safety issue (if that is what it is). As I have said elsewhere, it will be interesting to see if the road is closed on a Saturday afternoon when more people other than us football supporting plebs would be affected.Malc, just wondering? Weighing things up post chaos…Did it make a big difference? Or did you change routines to reduce the impact?
Logically they should do this on a Saturday when there is even more traffic on the A444 northbound. Or else there is no justifiable reason for doing it for night matches.i hope not ! one effect was that there were cars parked right up the Foleshill on the pavement making it more dangerous for pedestrians

So it didn’t affect me too badly - if you ignore the fact that I missed 10 minutes of a match I had paid for. Have I mentioned that I left the ground early. I also got there earlier, so routine was changed.
Sometimes for me there are matters of principle. Would people have purchased season tickets for Car Park A if they had known they would be held back after matches? Why should one group of people be inconvenienced because of another groups indiscipline?
Its probably an age thing.
I did think there seemed to be a lot of people leaving early. Is that what they want to encourage? Will it be yet another reason for people not to renew their season tickets?Most left early. The ground was half empty by the final whistle.

Bet you hang around if we lose, drinking all those tears is good energy.Was in C. Have never got out so fast, but we don’t hang around to clap players tbh.
