Discrimination....??

Some of you may know i am an Upper Wester STH.. in the WAGS section..


Something has been bothering me though, why are we.. in Upper West the only entrance not to have stewards on the gates, no checks performed on match days at all and you go round to East/North and South stands were there are around 4 stewards at each door???


Surely that could be classed as discrimination ..

When I enter Gate 2, there's usually one steward outside and one inside - how many stewards were you hoping for?

Why would anyone want to be searched?

The mind boggles, this has to be a wind up.

I've been searched maybe twice in 9 years at the Mad Stad. Used to get regularly frisked at Elm park though.

Old Trafford at Christmas was the first time I'd been searched at any ground in 3 years.

I find that amazing.
If you were to take a dangerous item in, for example a camera, you could hit somebody with it.

And nobody to stop you.
