I've been down to Flancare a good 5 or 6 times now and there's never been segregation but that wasn't the real problem.

Moreso the fact that it was such a small area with one toilet for the lot of us. Could've been much better managed.

Could possibly have somthin to do with the 1st batch of shels fans that showed up to the game on sat night had aload of drink with them and were in the old ticket hut. Id imagine it was just a precaution to avoid previous incidents with other clubs. Shels have never given any problems through the years

Yeah Shels fans are usually grand, the last row I can remember with them was factions of their own support lumping each other!. They certainly didn't seem to give bother on Saturday but I was in just before kick off so if there was any incidents before that I missed them. Two toilets would have been a better idea alright for a couple of hundred fans, strictly speaking they're supposed to have access to food and a shop as well I think for proper segregation. We're not used to crowds these days unfortunately.

There was a chipper which was good in fairness. I wonder what would've been done if it had started raining??

Not having a go here, just wondering if there was any plans in place for such an occurence or if segregation was a last minute decision (which is unlikely considering there was a chipper in place).

It's hard to know what would have been done to be perfectly honest. We weren't exactly stuck for space in the stand and as ye were behaving perfectly well they may have brought ye across. Though other fans have been left to get wet, it would be unnecessarily harsh when there was no bother.

Feck all I'd say, let it p�ss down on ye was probably the plan.
