Well that would cost money and seeing that we've hardly spent fuck all on the pitch, I'd say the chances of spending money off the pitch are pretty slim.HappyhammerEire wrote:The Dave's came out with a statement just yesterday stating that they will not stop working until every fan is happy with the stadium. we have to make it a fortress and to do that I think we the FANS the core of this club have to be closer to the pitch. They need to sort it out right now its like a world away from a proper footbal ground. In exchange this will help the team get the results that we as a club deserve. Anyone feel the same way? Could They introduce safe standing to fill up those massive gaps where the astro turf a.K.a plastic padding is?
I don't think it is really the distance from the pitch that is the #1 issue I think its the areas fans have been placed. The club have well and truly fudged up by placing proper vocal fans in patches. I know the idea of this sounds good at first but hear me out.HappyhammerEire wrote:The Dave's came out with a statement just yesterday stating that they will not stop working until every fan is happy with the stadium. we have to make it a fortress and to do that I think we the FANS the core of this club have to be closer to the pitch.

Over a period of time,might be a year or 2,they can let it be known where the "Singing areas" are
Bobby Lower or wherever seems best,people would then know where to they are, with respect to
the unofficial standing areas.
Even then we have a prob with the stewards whose job it is(like it or not) to make sure people remain seated.
Also if we start having a high old bill presence,standing will be an absolute no go.
So we need to find a way to get the stadium security on board and keep the old bill away,
Fuck knows how that can be achieved at the moment,think we have to be patient until we
eventually get what we want..........
Yeah lets hope that continues and gradually becomes the norm,prob at the moment is just oneredhammer wrote:mkhammer wrote:I think a lot of us are forgetting that you are not legally allowed to stand in the stadium,does not

Worth noting the stewards made zero attempt to make the blocks in front of us to sit. They have been standing since domzale game and it kicked off with the Watford one. But on Sunday they were left well alone and shock, no trouble whatsoever. I can only hope this will be the case this weekend too.
