Generally I think anyone expecting there to be absolutely no issues with 63,000 fans, plus 1000s more in the surrounding pubs is living on another planet.

Overall I think the atmosphere was incredible and any problems were few and far between.

the thing that was so different to any game I've been to since they opened (only missed the Spam game) was the amount of people going in all at once.

we got to the car park under the stadium at 5:30 to be told we wouldn't be allowed to go up for 30mins because the stadium wasn't going to open till 6. my daughter and son wanted to go to the shop, and I wanted enough nicotine plus I was meeting a 4th person, a fellow SC member but won't mention any names unless they post it themseleves.

the cues to go in where massive, and it was the 1st time I've gone in and had to cue for my 1 beer

I was in 419 as well (normally 101)!

1st half I was near enough sat next to the door row 16, asked my guest as we failed to get people to move around, had a group of 10 in my original seat, and another large group to my left who were deaf and didn't want to move which was fair enough. in the 2nd half I went to sit with my kids (24 & 20 but still my kids) as there was 1 free seat behind. really wished we could of got 4 together, and find it hard to know how groups of 10 managed to be seated together.

You could tell most people were visiting for the first time, because the stairs on the east side (where I usually go up) were completely clear, everyone was trying to ram up the same two staircases, when there's at least 3 other routes up.
