I can only speak from our ground facilities that the new turnstiles are linked to a computer count as required for ground licencing by Lancs county council. In conversations with Eric of recent times he considers this information as critical to the accurate accounting of the club. It also allows the safety officer to assess, when crowds permit, when capacity of each section of the ground is at a maximum for safety. As for Hereford maybe after all out te a te's over the years maybe the chairman has done the lad a favour in "no longer having to suffer fools glady" (assumed of course.) In reality the chair is opening himself up to a whole potential can of worms & trust the real fans of Hereford back him up & show the chair up fobeing such an arrogant personage-surely the local press should finally have a great time of use of freedom of the press in exposing whatever skeletons theyalways manage to dig up at such times. I am now off to sign the lads petiton in support & show my disgust at such over the top action.
