puts it back into context that the 300ER is a BIG aeroplane , and because they are now a regular visitor to some not so big airfields perhaps it gets forgotten when asking crews to take some non normal routing to get them to a stand[several?] that they werent expecting . As in GLA before one would assume you wouldnt be asked to do something there isnt space to do ?? how hard would it be in this day and age to put the info through a computer programme and show what can and cant be done on each intersection etc and highlight for the type. probably cost a lot lest than the cost of one of these incidents. By the way i dont know the cause of this incident so am only commenting based on rumours.
