Surely it can only be either cost cutting or health and safety.
It's a Health and Safety decision taken after a recent inspection. I had intended to find out more detail at this Saturday's Supporters Board Meeting. Its not an action that the club are totally happy with.

Perhaps they should concentrate their efforts on stewarding the exit from car park 2! Always standing around at the junction when a simple alternate control system by a couple of them would avoid an accident/incident waiting to happen?

You said the east stand copes with one exit, it will do when reduced numbers use it
it's not the capacity it's the amount of people who use it..There are way more people use the west stand than the east stand on a normal matchday..And you can add to that the corporate clients and premier lounge members who go in the bar afterwards as opposed to leaving the stadium.. That said it's not going to make a massive difference to exiting the ground but just seems a daft idea that will hinder more than it helps but that's the hse for you..
Come on SM, it is clear that the East Stand has less fans in it than the West. I sit in the middle of the South every single game so I have an equal good view of both those stands and the West is always much fuller than the East. Especially when you take out the most populated area of the East - the premier lounge seats - from where all of those folks won't even be using the 'common' exits at ground level.It is clear that "the East Stand copes with one exit open so the West will cope with two" is blatantly not a sensible assertion.
Reduced? Not sure what you mean.
