Sandhills station

I think you are the only 1 saying it shouldnt have been built tho.

I doubt that too.

But the issue of it not getting planning consent is by-the-by now and only of interest in terms of the hierarchy of blame over transportation.

 

[Bluesnapper]

It's more about safety than time...but even on that score: it took you 15 minutes longer to get home with 15,000 less people to contend with.

Point is those queues you despise aren't holding me, or anyone else, up.

 

[Bluesnapper]

I'm all right, Jack.

Seen plenty of this attitude since the first test event.

People can only go by what they experience.

Point is those queues you despise aren't holding me, or anyone else, up.

...and yet you got home later than usual from a stadium with substantially less people in it.

Yeah the stadium has moved and is bigger - no one is getting home at the same time they used to.

Yep.

But as said above it's the issue of safely getting there and back that's paramount. Time delays are secondary. Important, but secondary.

I’ve got a mate who lives on Barmouth Way,he’ll probably leave about 10 minutes before kickoff the jammy get.

Everyone?

The fella doesnt even make my top 20.

You cant wait for something to go wrong can you? Disgusting.

But anyway, I said from the start, building a Stadium next to a very dangerous body of water was always gonna end in tears.

Ever been to the Millenium Stadium?

 

[Goat]

Ever been to the Millenium Stadium?

No, but I've been to Wembley, I assume it's as bad as that?

Ever been to the Millenium Stadium?

I went to the champions league final,boss ground right in the city centre.

The South Stand won't take much more than those attending the second test event.

Even managed to navigate the queues at the Bascule Bridge too.

Millenium stadium is right on the water that was all.

Rugby fan, 34, died in river during all-day drinking session after winning £250 free bar package for Six Nations match at Millennium Stadium

Ben Thompson, 34, tumbled into the water as he tried to walk back to his hotel after drinking in an executive hospitality box.

I was lucky for sure, but the Stadium wasnt fully open, EVERYBODY left at the same time.

If I didnt get a lift I would have made my way to the station, waited in a queue for a bit and then got the train home.

You are acting like I would have had to hike up a mountain and take a 3 day trek through a jungle in Brazil.

As I said, it’s not perfect and solutions need to be found, but to suggest it shouldnt have been built cos people will wait in a queue is laughable

you try an tell the young people of today that, and they won't believe you...

 

[James Patrick]

Yep.

But as said above it's the issue of safely getting there and back that's paramount. Time delays are secondary. Important, but secondary.

What is not safe ?

 

[Hinchcliffe's Corner]

That was your experience - and based on much less than half of those who will be attending games at that site. And, BTW, I dont think it's just me claiming it is it?

Be sure to let us know your experience when you go to the game Dave. You are going now BK's dead, right?
