The Enclosure wrote:Ok a minor gripe but it wasnt minor on Saturday when myself and hundreds of others were getting soaked.
The turnstiles should have opened at 1.45 .however the Longside upper did not open umtil approx 2-15, lower about 2-10. When I questioned one of the jobsworth supervisors she said they had a staff shortage as several turnstile operators had not turned up for work.
They had about 6 lower turnstiles open but no upper....they cud easily have closed a couple of the lower turnstiles and moved the guys to open a couple of the upper ones if they had used a bit of common sense!!!
What made it worse was the rain was like a monsoon with very few places to shelter.
Anyway.the 3-0 win made up for the soaking lol .

Ah but what you don't realise is that those operators have only been trained for the lower turnstiles and switching to the uppers would have been against H&S policy

;)

If that wasn't likely to be true it would be laughable.
