Is everyone who selected load to card receiving a paper ticket? I've seen some say they received one, even though they loaded to card, but I haven't received anything..
The club have said previously, multiple times why it is out of the club's control. They have said in this statement as well why Block 13 isn't opened.
Even when they post something in detail you will still say they have the power to do what they want.
Of course Frasers safety people have the ability to drop capacity, much the same how Wasps safety people had the powers to demand over the top ticket checks.
You just choose to ignore things, even when pointed out to you and think the club can just do whatever they want.
Think they’ll ask Gareth to take it over in the interim before hiring an external
No they haven't. I've never seen once the club say "we disagree with this but it has been enforced upon us".
Do you really think Doug King has given Mike Ashley the power to reduce our attendances to zero? Even I don't believe CCFC would be that incompetent
Ultimate control of safety at the Ricoh Arena falls under Arena Coventry Limited (ACL) as holders of the safety certificate. Their designated Safety Officer Paul Cook runs the matchday from a safety point of view from the control room, working alongside the CCFC Safety Officer Nicki Pollard and her team of CCFC supervisors and stand managers, and stewards who are employed by CCFC.
The issue only became apparent at the game, which has resulted in Season Ticket holders who brought in those blocks having to move. We were told initially by the SAG (Safety Advisor Group) that we could not sell tickets in the Kop Corner (except for disabled access to the viewing ramp in that area)
Why can you never open the whole of the South Stand?
As well as the segregation required by the SAG, the South Stand concourse capacity is not large enough to safely accommodate the number of seats/people in the South Stand.
Why do CCFC have more blocks of segregation than other clubs?
The level of segregation between home and away fans is a decision made by the Safety Advisory Group, not CCFC.
you're not this bloke, are you?

It's nothing to do with Doug King, it will have been the same as long we have been there. ACL / Wasps / Frasers have the safety certificate. It will all have to go through them.
They have said things multiple times that it is down to ACL / Wasps and their safety team that things are being done.
You're right, it isn't that hard.
Who has ultimate responsibility for matchday safety?
Keep an eye out for a one man sit in protest that delays kick off!!
Doug King Invetigates!
apart from tickets......
There really is nothing else to discuss
I can't figure what you're saying. Do you think Frasers can reduce our capacity at games to zero if they wanted? Yes or no?
SAG could suggest something and it would then be up to Frasers.
I have just posted actual quotes saying where SAG have said what can and can't be opened. As the safety certificate is with Frasers, they then get to decide. (As ACL / Wasps used to)
Hence: SAG -> Frasers -> Club
I can't believe you actually think we would sign a licence agreement that would give Mike Ashley the power to bankrupt the club if he felt like it!!
We already know that SAG have no power of enforcement, so they can't "tell" them not to open any parts of the ground.
Just because someone says something, doesn't mean its true
It isn't worth arguing with Nick sometimes, he has no real curiosity to look into anything beyond vague statements. I mean who would trust a word of what that clown Boddy implies about anything.I can't believe you actually think we would sign a licence agreement that would give Mike Ashley the power to bankrupt the club if he felt like it!!

Thats was because Wasps had gone bust! It wasn't part of the agreementWhere have you been for years? Wasps deciding that people can't have corporate on the day... etc
SAG can tell Frasers who can then tell CCFC, hence if those 2 decide things then it is above CCFC's head / decision making.
It really is so simple.
Is that your Gareth Bale equivalent slogan?...SAG -> Frasers -> Club
‘So I assume you’ll be telling Tynan Scope he no longer works here’
‘Yeah that’s right I’ll sack a bloody good sales rep because he made someone move seats’
The Fraser's person isn't even a core member of SAG.
The SAG reports back to the Local Authority. It doesn't make any decisions
The Safety Advisory Group cannot take any decisions on behalf of the Local Authority. The Local Authority’s decision-making power is delegated to the Director of Streetscene and Regulatory Services, Place Directorate who will consider any recommendations made by the group when making their decision
All sorted… it was block 25 now I’m block 26 higher up. I just wish I’d stick to my season ticket seats….this will be the time the bloke in front finally passes back the bag of sweets we see him passing around every game.I bought 4… haven’t told me which one or if it’s all!!! We have a Junior with us… what’s the betting they are put on their own in the opposite stand. WTF is going on!!
It’s not just adviceIts advice,we don’t have to take it.
64 pages and counting ….wow
Ill make it simple
Idiots on coke who decide to break the cordon and fight the Derby fans
Idiots who constantly run on the pitch
Flares being thrown
Its quite simple - we have a few knobs that have ruined it for everyone and the police / safety group have taken a stance.
There really is nothing else to discuss
the council have also devolved their powers to the sagIt’s not just advice
It’s not though. The club have said it’s an issue with the concourse. Which begs the question of how a stadium got built where the concourses can’t handle the number of fans. And also why the women’s games were allowed to fill the place?

It is, the SAG terms of reference as published on the council's website do not state it has any powers whatsoever.
