I have to comment on this, if it is to prevent overcrowding then why did we have a game this season that saw season ticket holders and paying supporters have to stand on the Clayton End when there were more people let in than seats available?

Could it be the system is flawed or maybe someone had stood on the cable causing the plug to come out of the socket.
