Queues

[Hart of the Matter]

I recall queuing past sniffer dogs at St James' last season.

Not sure about away fans, but home fans no security checks what so ever, zilch, nada, sfa.

Yesterday, they stuck one of those "security checked" stickers on my bag without looking in the bag. Waste of time. And I don't like the wands. It's unnecessary. Suicide bombers would no doubt target the queues outside anyway. Doesn't make things safer and an unpleasant experience all round. Stop it, City or GMP or whoever's silly idea it is.

It's official, those wand things they waft around you are purely for ornament. I went for a beer at half time and rooted in my pocket for a fiver and pulled our a steel box spanner / Philips screwdriver combo thing, that is five inches long and I could have stabbed someone with it.

Says it all. The whole thing's a farce.

Last season, pissing down before the Liverpool 5 - 0. Had a brolley - a decent one. Wouldn't let me take it in. Left it by one of the entrances to the North Stand. Obviously, it got nicked.

Umbrellas of mass destruction.

I thought, fuck this, and just went to the shorter one with my bag and got in in next to no time.

yep, not surprised in the slightest

Only waited a few mins at N1 and then straight in.

How was it for people today?

Stood outside still at 3.05, queuing for 20+ minutes to get in, while the entrance next to us the 'security' are stood doing nothing. Joke.

Whole queue held up at one point while they replenished those daft security tags for the ladies' handbags.

T was good today, much better organisation.

I thought, fuck this, and just went to the shorter one with my bag and got in in next to no time.

That’s no way to talk about your good lady.

For the record, I assembled a flat pack piece of furniature with it yesterday.

Last season at one match I took out and held my wallet phone and keys and when "wanded" it went off. It had picked up the six pound coins in my pocket.
The really bizarre thing is that the Lad asked if it was change, I answered yes and he said "OK". So I could have had a gun or a bomb that was picked up but still got inside
