OK, so I've ridden a couple of laps round the stadium on my way home (Mmmmmmm half day) and it all looks fine. They have even been so good as to scatter salt about in he even of it being a little icy underfoot. There are plenty of cameras but that is to be expected given the location. The Drayton Park pub would be a fine meeting point with big windows to keep an eye on bikes but not many places to lock up to. it seems the real variable is how tight the evening security is. It remains to be seen that if people start whizzing around will they be quick to issue requests to move on / "clear off berfore I call the police"
