Just sharing a couple of bits of info after a personal e-mail crusade yesterday.
1. Had a response from FSF ([email protected]) who says she's working with supporter groups to provide comment back to SYP about what happened on Sunday. Sound like she's got plenty of stuff already but for those non-Tweeters like me (Philistines...) it's another way of raising the problems with someone who's interested.
2. Had a call from SWFC's Safety/Security bloke this morning as I e-mailed them to find out what happened with the turnstiles. He's claiming the club had no communication from SYP that trams had been stopped & 500+ Blades would be arriving late & all together. So they'd gone to normal post kick-off routine to close all but 2 turnstiles. Poor decision to do that as counting people in they knew that 500+ people hadn't arrived yet but again claimed they had "no idea where they were". Says they opened 2 more turnstiles as soon as they could get operators back to man them as they were watching the match! Apologised for the experience & says he would be taking the matter up with SYP as they're meeting to discuss in light of dirty weeds turning up on Sunday.
I'm not bothered about getting any money back. I just want the atrocious organisation & communication between SYP & SWFC to be called to task. Next e-mail (for what it's worth) will be to PCC for SYP. Then MP's for S2 & S6. Then Donald Trump as no doubt he'll have a view....
