thoughts on this? Good move IMO, lets get the lower bowl filled first, and shot the away fans up in the heavens like they do to us at most places http://www.safc.com/news/20111101/feedback-on-away-fans-move_2256213_2501897
To be fair, only NUFC put the away fans up a height. No other team in the PL gives the away team just the upper tier.
For me it is a bad idea...I'm all for moving the away fans from there present location, but I would put them in the South West or South East Corners and move the people who are currently in that section into the South Stand...That would maintain the banter with the away fans which helps create a better atmosphere, and will also get rid of the gaps that are currently there behind the goal in the South Stand. I dare bet that if the away fans get moved to the North Stand Upper, then many of our fans who are currently based in the South West Corner will also go up there, which will leave even more gaps in the lower seats...
Also, what will happen when you play us? The buses have to park at the south of the stadium, and the people who get the train will also come from that direction. It'll be a nightmare for police.
Its right beside my season ticket. Might make it a tad more spicy in certain games but I'm all for the current away location being moved as when crap clubs dont take up the full allocation, it looks bloody awful. Will have to see if I like the new location personally but if I dont, I'll just move.
Not sure if anyones knows but they are redeveloping part of the north stand and north west stand for the new black cats bar going to be interesting to see what its like when its all finished
Too old for that ****e (I was never that young for it either tbh. lol). I prefer to just imagine the daft twats on here, frothing at the mouth over a daft friggin interent forum and not just voting me as their most despised poster but actually bothering to think a thread up with that sackless, sad intent in the first place. I've had a right old hoot these past 24 hours. There really are more sad planks than even I imagined over in NE1.
I'm not sure either. Agree hey need moving but one of the lower corners for me. I think it could kill some of the atmosphere and I genuinely think there could be a problem for those sitting below. Was that rain or something else landing on me?
Don't want to start an argument, but there have been many reports of beer/water/piss coming down from level 7 onto our fans below, most notably in the Sunderland games. To me this is ****ing disgusting, and would certainly point out any fans to police if they did it in my view.
