That is getting rid of lots of gangways , do they not want us to leave  ??

Encouraging people to spend more time (translation - money) at the ground as it’s a big revenue driver.

Aren't there some sort of regulations specifying number of exits per x number of seats?

You can just about see on here. The middle tier entrances have been filled in and the gangway will run top to bottom.





Sorry for being thick here, you are saying that those exits/entrances circled are now no longer there?

They've employed a Gangway Optimisation Model and calculated that they require fewer exits, due to people leaving early to beat the traffic.

I can’t wait to go again in a 50k crowd.

It will be the first time since the ding-dong derby in ‘77 I think.

Must be shit if you had an aisle seat to move to the middle of the row. Plus being moved from fans you sit close to. They havent attempted the upper witton yet, its probably unsafe to remove the walkways up there!

From the top will make getting to and from the lavvy at half time a bit more difficult!

Sounds good, we've been looking at ways to reduce the average age of our fanbase.

That's correct. I think they're replaced by the ones currently in the Lower Trinity, so I assume there will be approximately half as many exits/entrances as previous.
No doubt some will use this as an excuse to leave even earlier.

Ok thanks, I did finally work that out in the end. Its a bit of a mare getting out at the moment so cant say Im looking forward to it getting 2x worse. Ah well.
