So were the people in Y25 unable to pass the police line in the concourse and go to toilet?

I am in Y25 - I exited, turned left towards Y24 and used the toilets there and didn't even see any Police. Guess they must have been further down

Did you go for a wee then at 10:30pm?

Actually I don't think I did go for wee after the game.... no I didn't, I remember now as I had to stop mid-way on the walk to my Car for a pish in the bush.

Forget my earlier post, I was all confused with other urinations

Why have segregation?

cos I h8 all away fans and don't want to sit with them
this isn't rugby.

still don't see why I should run the aggro gauntlet after every game.

Oh right - so it's ok to have segregation in football because you don't like someone as they support a different team to you but you want a World where everyone is free to roam as they choose? There's no consistency here at all.

no you eedjit, I h8 away fans, and want only their ability to roam freely to be restricted.
absolute consistency

I believe the thinking is that if there is any post game bad feeling between supporters it will have diffused, and the numbers reduced by the time the two sets of fans finally get to meet! Conveniently any trouble that there still might be is then more likely to take place in the area of the retail park rather than the stadium!

In previous years this arrangement hasn't prevented the likes of Millwall and Portsmouth haring around the long way to get at the departing home support!

All in all, far more of an inconvenience to the generally well behaved supporters than an effective means of preventing trouble.

or just hold the away fans for 5 minutes while the home fans disperse?
has happened to me as a reading away fan loads.

Takes way longer than that. Didn't they used to hold the home fans until the away fans dispersed? That's the more efficient way if you're holding anyone as there's fewer of them and they've got further to go.

not, I mean it takes 5 mins to walk all the way back around past the away end, which is all that's achieved by stopping me walking the shorter way
