Really, calling someone and their staff idiots at the start of a letter you've sent to a newspaper [SNIP]
He called the ticketing policy idiotic, not staff. And it was.

Really? I thought he said a decision was idiotic. Not the same as calling a person an idiot.

Not sure about WSU but ESU has a wheelchair section sort of to the side of the new Sky box in the SW corner. Not sure how they get the wheelchairs up the stairs if they can't use the lift!
Semantics.
Not really. No-one at the club is an idiot. It's just this FA ticketing policy which, given historical data, ticketing pricing etc is, well... let's say, nonsensical.
The lifts are usually reserved for the disabled.
Don’t think so. At least I’ve never seen them used for such.
Contrary to popular opinion certain lifts CAN be used in an emergency (some of those in my office can be for example) including fire so I assume that is also the case for the ESU. The ones in WSU are for goods etc not the disabled.
So... "I'm I don't think club staff are idiots, just the ticketing policy, chosen, designed and managed by club staff" ok mate
Resting Glenn Murray on Saturday would be an idiotic decision imo given the circumstances (striker shortages; the gap until next match).
I wouldn’t consider Chris Hughton to be an idiot.
So, you don't think Chris will rest him, otherwise that will prove he's an idiot? Is that what you mean?
No, I mean a single decision doesn't define your character.
Nope. That person may or may not have written something idiotic, but if so, then it doesn't, on it's own, define him as an idiot.Ah I see.
So, we shouldn't judge the person who decided to write to the Argus rather than contacting the club directly, as it's just a single decision. It just LOOKS like attention seeking, but it' too early to judge. Got it
You sure about that ? I thought the lifts were strictly for staff use/catering etc only. If a disabled person can't manage to get up the stairs to the WSU, then they're obviously not going to be allowed to use the lift in an emergency to get back down. Elf' and safety and all that.
Anyway, 2,704 tickets remaining in the WSU this morning, so they sold just under 500-odd yesterday. I expect they'll shift a few tomorrow if the forecast is clement.
Really, calling someone and their staff idiots at the start of a letter you've sent to a newspaper rather than directly to the club and a ceo who regularly responds to all his mail from fans isn't exactly constructive. If you want to raise a point, there are ways of going about it without calling people idiotic. I bet he didn't get a private apology, and certainly doesn't deserve one.
We've gone from fighting for the very existence of a club to writing nasty little letters to the press about why a stand isn't opened a few days early. Ridiculous really.
Having waited for the shelf which doesn't look like its going to be open, looks like I'll be going into West Upper. Have never been before - I presume there are lifts in our lovely new stadium? That many stairs are a bit beyond me!

Except he didn't. He said in his letter "can someone please explain to me who took the idiotic decision not to open the upper east for the Derby FA Cup game."
