I think folk are being a touch harsh on the OP, who IMO has a legitimate grievance.
I don't think it's that unreasonable to expect the Council to make a special effort and grit the streets/pavements around Fir Park. Surely the volume of traffic/potential for some nasty falls would make them a priority?
I'd at the very least expect the Club to be out salting the pavements in the immediate vicinity of the ground, that to me is just common sense.
Winter/snow/ice is nothing new right enough, so why is it that we are so poor are coping with it in this day and age? I think part of it is you used to be able to say, yeah the Council will have been out and salted X, Y & Z by this time but now it seems to be pot luck.
Best thing to do is get a pair of those grippers that slip over your shoes, then you're not relying on anyone else to make places safe.
