I've got to be honest mate, I'm struggling to see what our fans did wrong there? It's not up to the fans to control themselves, they rely on police & stewards to do that. All I see is them not being able to get the fans into their seats quickly enough, causing a queue to get into the ground.
Regarding the restriction you had at ours, I've no idea why because no other team has had one.

You don't understand, We have done no more than this for years, but we get restrictions on us?

One example is Bristol City. A few years ago they lifted all restrictions on both sets of fans. Bristol came here first, decided to smash up a pub for no reason and then we had a bubble trip for the reverse fixture the same season and for the following few seasons. This season they decided to lift them again and again Bristol came to Cardiff looking for it, threw a few flairs around and now our reverse fixture has been brought forward due to the police!!
Maybe we're biased but we never see other teams have the restriction's put on the fans like ours.

The first time we played our rivals (Blues) for a few years, they played both games on the Monday night Sky game. It was like a throwback to the 70's & 80's. Bringing a fixture forward can be the worse decision if it then ends up as a night game because people have all day to drink and meet offside somewhere. It shows how clueless authorities are.
The only real way to stop trouble is the Sunday 12 o clock KO. Derby played Forest at that time, we play Blues at that time (both sides have reduced allocations of 2,000) I would expect you to play Bristol at that time as well.
