Nikki Allan at Middlesbrough v Leeds on 26 February 2020 4 years ago

Retractable chairs are accessible via lift but have broken down many times. Foot access from the other side was dangerous for disabled patients. Commentary headsets in preparation. Once again the commentators are would-be referees so are very biased until repeatedly proven wrong! Race referees are very helpful. Car park is outside the turn.

August 12, 2017 Sheffield United Supporters of the Disabled (SUD) at the V Sheffield United 7 years ago

On arrival, the bus was parked outside the disabled entrance. The flight attendant informed us it was a long walk but flat ground. We got to the lift which only accommodates one wheelchair or carer at a time. Good but a bit late for half time when everyone wants to go to the toilet. The toilets under the lift were very clean and had hot water etc. The elevated areas are generally nice but don't go to the other side of the pitch as you can't see the other side if fans are standing there. There should have been a hostess service at half time but this was not there. There should have been stewards in or near the disabled area but there were none. Fans stood on the walkway on the stairs whilst the presenter below watched the match without clearing the stairs. At the end of the match a fight broke out between rival fans in the neighbouring stand so we had to leave by ourselves using the lift. Not a good idea according to health and safety regulations. The coach was escorted by police when we left the ground. Ann Hyde, Middlesbrough v Arsenal

8 years ago As part of the club's official away expedition, he first visited a riverside stadium on a wheelchai r-compatible minibus. Access to the ground well is marked by the bypass from the highway. You can't return unless you pass by by car. The entrance for the visitor fan is located behind the main entrance. As part of the official away lip, we were able to park right outside the door used to enter the stadium. The stadium is located along the Ties River and has a very dramatic atmosphere. There seemed to be many stall trucks around the stadium that passed by by car. Stadium wheelchair equipment. Unfortunately, when we visited, we had no elevated waging area for wheelchairs yet, so we had to sit on the field level before the front row. As a result, it got wet when it rained. Our tickets were 30 pounds, so I asked for a refund (because I thought it was inferior), but I signed a middl e-bra player signed program (maybe a home fan, but we are interested. It is still waiting for a reply two weeks after refusing the first offer, which is not. Since then, as part of the official

Club employee's attitude We met the club employees we met were kind, and on that day we dealt with my complaint with a professional attitude. He gave me an email on Monday after the match, but he didn't seem to follow. My husband was not impressed that the provided poncho had a club color logo! There was no congestion after the match after the match. Considering the long journey on the way home, I would like to thank you for letting the away official transport vehicle out of the stadium. On the way home, I noticed that there was a small new commercial facility on the left side of the ground, pubs, and supermarkets. Shall we go again? Unlike the first time you went) If you know that the equipment for the away wheelchair users is in place, you can offset some expensive tickets, and the second visit will be on the next Middle's Bra battle. You will be worried. Why is it the highest ticket fee in the league in a club in an area known for its low average income? How close will soccer be for local disabled people?

Gary Dears (2008) who participated in the Reading Battle) 11 years ago View from the elevated platform for wheelchair-Away fan (using home elevator) Kevin Dennis Hennethy, who watched the middle of Chelsea, (July 20, 2008) 11 years ago

A sad report, the journey to the riverside was somewhat lost by the Jobsworth stadium manager. My wife is disabled, not as severe as one, but cannot walk outside a very short distance without painful discomfort. Therefore, after checking the river facility on this site, I managed to head to the parking space outside the field and confirmed that my wife's blue badge was clearly displayed. About 20 minutes later, as the audience began to increase, the parking space was secured for the permit holder, so it was instructed to move to a parking lot about 500 yards. As a result, we decided to leave the ground before the match to avoid unavoidable congestion at the end of the match. Sadly, two of the four empty spaces remained empty space. This is the worst event that we have never experienced for many years, who have been chasing Chelsea in England and Europe, and the types of problems facing the most unfortunate people as the most competent. It would have been easier to avoid if the manager to be compassion and knowledge. If something like yesterday happens, you won't be able to return to the river anymore.

A. Gabins who watched the middle bra vs. Leicester City (April 2, 2011) 11 years ago

Middle Snowl has a wonderful watching area for wheelchair users if no one is sitting in front of you. It may be different when using the lower row. There is only one big problem, and wheelchairs with assistants use the air lift. If this is not comfortable for the caregiver, the Middles Bowlo steward will help while the caregiver is walking along the stairs next to the lift. The lift is for one person, so it takes time if there are many wheelchairs. Race officials were mostly wonderful, kind and friendly. In middle boro, hal f-time steward services are continuing. Considering that only one elevator can be used, this is very helpful. When asked why a pitc h-level space was not provided, like a middl e-class wheelchair supporter sitting at the pitch level, from the chief of the supporter, it was too dangerous at the pitch level, and for health and safety reasons. I was told that I decided! Middle bra was also considering the supporters with disabilities. We were allocated tickets after the 29th row, but were not suitable for one of the members. This problem is
