    Separating the possible movement of the away fans from the membership scheme (ie imagine the scheme itself was ditched and pricing went back to last years) would you still want the away fans to be moved into Upper West?
    Obviously that would mean those City fans who had season tickets there last season would still need to move to other seats, although presumably most have either moved or decided not to renew already
    So
    Move the away fans ...or leave them where they are?
    Cheers

    What's the benefit of that, you might as well leave them where they are and not shift another load of people out their seats?

    That's why I only went for options that wouldn't move more people

    It depends on why you move them. I think the two options are among the worse of all world's.

    Moving them to NE and splitting home fans killed the atmosphere.

    Moving them to upper west, not only pisses off those that have to move, but also a lot of those that don't, as they don't want to be near away fans.

    I'd suggested a part of the west for consideration before, mainly just the very corner that was last choice for tickets anyway, but more as an extension of a move of away fans to the nw corner. Not ideal, but better than the **** up we got.

    It was suggested that there wasn't enough room for away fans, as the aim was to move them from behind the goal. I thought more expensive away tickets in that wnw corner would mainly be bought by the quieter away fans, with the noisier ones favouring North.

    A fair few from the north have shifted back or left, after realising it's ****, so it's probably the least disturbance.

    Away fans NW corner out of camerra shot. Home fans sharing a stand again. BUT...FULL CONSULTATION WITH FANS.

    I can't think of another stadium where you'd have away fans behind the directors box! North west isn't a bad idea! They're not on show for tv & can still come in through the coach park. If they're in the west upper it'd be hard work keeping them seperate from city fans who've parked on Walton st and heading to west & south.

    Out of camera shot, in the cramped naughty corner with a poor view....as often happens to us when we play away.
    Get E1, E2, E3 back for home fans, remove the ludicrous metal fence behind E1/N6.
    Most home fans in N stand were evicted from E1, E2, E3 anyway and would probably welcome a move back into the East.
    Plan B: stick em in West Upper, let them lob stuff on the dozy pampered corporate ****s who often host away fans anyway. PS The view from West Upper ain't all that anyway......

    Moving them into W10 to N2 involves moving more people than had to move out of E1 to E3 and far more than are currently being moved out of UPP6 to UPP11.

    And what do you gain, they get exactly the same seats, just shifted from one corner to another?

    I just hope they get better advice than they got for the clear **** up that was the NE corner evictions that's lead us to **** state we're in.

    They need to ask the people involved, not people that think they know from watching others.

    I'm back in the E this season, after being exiled to the N last season.
    Third different seat in 3 seasons.
    But hey....some **** thinks it's the way to go......but no one directly affected did.
    Let some other ****s move next time round.

    City Man is Ehab, the other threads are just a distraction to stop us seeing the truth.

    Many of those most in favour of the East evictions, never went in North at all. Of rhe ones that did, they mainly ****ed off when they realised it was **** and nobody joined in with them.

    They joined the old school at Wembley and thought it was their doing and could carry it on.

    Some still can't see why it was wrong, and was always going to be.

    Oi
    It's an either or vote, not a haggling position!
    It'll warm you up for the EU referendum

    I've moved back to the East Stand for next season, as I can't stand for the full match anymore (dodgy knees), as well as it's **** in the North Stand

    I would move them to NW corner, the atmosphere died when they moved E1-3. We sit in E4 and would dearly love all the singing fans to be back together again. All this north stand east stand of city chanting drives me mad!!

    Just for now this poll is to consider what happens next season, because these two options are the only realistic ones
    Any thoughts about NW corner or anywhere else would have to be planned for the 17/18 season at the earliest
    So just for consider it as a choice for the forthcoming season

    Cheers
