It's great to that fans want to applaud the team after a stylish performance, but could this be done from a normal viewing position and not from the exit steps where blockages appear to occur preventing those wishing to leave in the normal way. I refer to the Lyndy side.

Exit congestIon!

When I am endeavouring to leave on the Lyndhust side, I sometimes wonder whether the stadium emergency evacuation time scale would ever be met in a crisis.

Let's say your exit is on your right and there's 8 people between you and the steps. If those 8 don't move you won't either also, could people be applauding on the steps purely because they're not moving.
The problems are being caused by the numbers wanting to leave through the big exit in the corner of the Devonport and Lyndhurst regardless of where they've been sat during the game.
In the 70s and 80s, walking down the ramp to leave the Lyndhurst after a good sized crowd (16,000 upward)could be terrifying when a surge meant you couldn't keep your feet on the floor.
In those days you could only exit by heading towards the car park.
Stop moaning.

this is a desirable "problem" in my opinion.the lads are playing brilliant and we just want to consume the atmosphere.what a difference our new management team have made.well done to the board for this astute appointment. :clap:
You are so right , Christ I miss those days in a way , toilets were a disgrace and I wont go into details, the ramp was dangerous if you were small...cheshiregreen":22nyfqho said:
Spion Kop electrifying,
Argyle now in a position to change the horrid last 6 years or so, in DA I have a feeling he is building Plymouth Argyle again and you would be a fool not to be part of it , so all the fans that have stayed away, come back to the green army as you will not be disappointed.... :scarf: :scarf:

If there was an emergency situation then people wouldn't be standing on the steps applauding the players would there. Everyone would be hot stepping it to the exit.Quintrell_Green":3qbac5s2 said:

Yes they are amazing aren't they---they continue to heat up for at least an hour after you have bought one!
Why anyone left early on Saturday when the game was end to end and only one goal in it is beyond me.
