Posted this yesterday in the Pre-match thread.....I don't think it was that as I didn't see any stewards redirecting people to go elsewhere. M1 was back to its huge queue worst and it seemed to me more of a result of slow searches by the stewards. M1 is never good and it's frustrating to see no queue at M2 for the lower levels.
Scousers don’t have this problemFuck knows what it’ll be like for night games. People have to turn up close to kick off because that’s the earliest they can get there after work.
That was probably me!Queues were longer at K turnstile for this game than the Norwich game but I think that might have been due to the KO time? Anyway I got in at the turnstile first time no problem. I saw one problem with a paper ticket that would not scan. It was the right turnstile too.
Maybe a daft question, but why do people wait until so late before trying to get into the ground?
It was ridiculous yesterday I thought the Norwich game was too good to be true. Arrived at 12ish and missed kick off and there was hundreds still behind us. This with away fans walking past getting mouthy is a joke.Fuck knows what it’ll be like for night games.

You’re more likely to arrive at the ground very early when your come to the game from NorwayScousers don’t have this problem
I think it was the same all over the ground. The new system worked better than expected against Norwich so people arrived later yesterday. That could have been due to the KO time as you say.Queues were longer at K turnstile for this game than the Norwich game but I think that might have been due to the KO time?

I was there half an hour before and it was as bad as it has ever been so I'm not surprised it was still mad five minutes before.

To be honest anyone turning up with less than 20-30 min before kick off at any ground these days are asking for trouble, those days of wondering up 10 minutes early are over, even without mobile ticketing security checks take longer.I started queuing to get in at 12:05 and got to my seat a few seconds before kick off. There were a couple of hundred behind me when I was entering the turnstile. (N1)
