Saw some trouble at the end of the game too in the same block. Some kids needed separating.
I saw a few more Evertonised areas this time around. We just have to be patient I feel here.
As for the empty seats it took me nearly 6 hours to get to the ground from Bristol, I'm sure a lot of people who might have set off later didn't end up making it. You'll also get some who just wanted the credits for the cup. The blocks full of empty seats were in the away end, perhaps need to look at better ways of dividing the fans. It was the first time, so you can understand the caution.
There was a bar at the far end of the East stand that was completely empty mate, the bloke was coming out looking for punters. I use the East concourse as my personal private area. I was the only one in the toilet for instance, just a shame I have to walk from the West stand all the way around.
Agreed, it is actually so bright that I'm sure the whole pitch gets brighter and dimmer when it switches to black.
