That is a low blow. Really sorry to hear that. I really hope your wife isn't put off coming again. Are the repairs very costly? I'd be happy to put a few quid towards it because I'd hate for her to think that we're all like that.

Bozza – Could the ‘Amazon Christmas prize money’ be redirected to help pay for the repairs, from all on NSC?

This isa very good idea. Might help persuade Mrs SG that there are also good things at the Amex.

We could use the disabled area but it isnt the same as sitting in and being part of the crowd.

I see no reason why you cant leave the chair in the disable section and then go to the stands, there is plenty of room in those area to store it during the game.

But, it makes me wonder, are the 10 gazillion stewards at the Amex on a match day all inside the ground during the game? Is there no-one left outside just to keep an eye on things?

This is awful!
Enough stewards around the perimeter on non match days, why not on match days? Appreciate club did what the did to help you, but should never have been in that situation. Interesting to know what Mr Barber says.

Is it not possible to seat in the wheelchair areas provided at least you could transfer to a seat in these areas while having your wheelchair nearby.

we did look at it but there are a number of issues.

It is not the same atmosphere ss being in amongst the crowd and when you are a reluctant wheelchair user it feels like you are being labelled.

I could go free as her carer but when she isnt well or doesnt feel up to the journey (7/8 hours driving for us) I wouldnt be able to go either unless I bought a ticket on the day before setting off- the decision can often be late on the day of the game so I would rather be sure and pay for 2 season tickets

When she cannot go I wouldnt be able to take one of the grandkids in her place at short notice which is one of the particular delights for me.


It is totally reasonable suggestion but just doesnt suit us. We were going to buy seats in the new hospitality suite which would have solved the problem but a thousand quid to br paid at xmas and the thought of having to push the chair from Bridge right round the ground (I'm a pensioner FFS :lolol:) put paid to that. When you think that every disabled space closer to the ground is taken it is a fair testament to how much the club have done to attract disabled sth's



As for the suggestion by some that these kids should have been spotted/prevented I guess that like me it wouldnt occur to anyone that they would be stealing a wheelchair...... what right minded person would?
The game was rated "low risk" so not many police on duty and stewards cant be everywhere (not to mention it was bitterly cold and wet .......... I would have been indoors if I were them :) ). I have no complaint in that respect.

So did these kids say to themselves "Let's have a mooch up to the Amex. We'll take some bolt cutters with us. There won't be anyone around on matchday and we might find the odd wheelchair or something to nick"

I guess it's automatic for kids to have "something" with them these days on the off chance. Hope your wife is feeling better soon.

If it was near bike racks then there must be a fair number of people with expencive bikes who will now worry as to how secure these bikes are during matchs.

It wouldnt be unrealistic to expect to be able to leave a wheelchair anywhere unpadlocked! obviously that is not the case, and thinking about it, these little shits will clearly steal anything.

Probably not the case, but if any of them that were involved are reading this thread..........I really hope you feel right big and clever you little scum bags!!!!!

I would imagine they were looking for bikes to nick.

A sorry tale of the times we live in, albeit one with a happy ending (notwithstanding Mrs severnside gull's understandable distress).

However, was I the only one waiting for the ERNEST "I borrowed a WHEELCHAIR during the match on SATURDAY to nip into TOWN but it had a WOBBLY wheel SO I had to BRING it BACK again" thread?

It just shows how scummy these little shits are, not even our Ernie will joke about them.

Lets hope the people responsible for this disgusting episode are quickly rounded up and photographed for the Argus and Internet,which should result in them having a very uncomfortable time over the coming months.
