away fans at the sol...

[Football Dinosaur]

Pne were the noisiest pre match and were decent throughout. Not special but good considering how "ecxiting" they've been this season. Think away fans should be se corner but won't happen until Club forced into it or financially has to be done imo.

The noise doesn’t really travel from end to end. In the south you can’t hear the away fans and in the north the south doesn’t sound as loud either.

I don’t buy into all this moving the away fans to improve the atmosphere. The team and the fans need to feed off each other. Our best atmospheres in recent times have coincided with either big important wins or excellent all round performances.

Not this shit again

Why not, we’ve had a thread on early leavers and people clapping the attendance…. this place man

Stick them in the premier concourse.

Behave.

they are loud and must give there team a lift like preston yesterday im a season ticket holder in the north stand and although its been debated on here before i wish the club would put the away fans in another part of the ground and our supporters up there it would make the atmosphere in the north stand ten times better.

Some are, some are not.

Still think they should stuff the away fans into the south west corner. Smallest part of the ground. Patrol box looks straight at it. Easy to police

Fans being noisy creates atmosphere ,whichever side does it
Noise is noise
Plus they knicked two of our songs

Sitting bang on half way the acoustics are definitely better up there, even when teams bring a few hundred you can hear them better than when allot more are clearly singing in south stand

 

[SAFCftm1986]

if it helps, i couldn't hear them at all from the south stand, or rocking end, or whatever it's called

This. Surprised by the comments on various FB posts about how loud they were for 90% of the game. If true, the acoustics in the stadium are pants and no wonder the SS can’t be heard by some

That's just gravity

Most away fans could sit in the dug out.

All that's doing is shifting the problem to somewhere else. They're whare the police want them to be.

The police walk them around to South strand cells. The best place would be south west prem concourse. Close to the south stand and closer to the cells.

Apparently trouble outside the ground is down by two thirds since they were moved. That's why the police want them where they are.

I sit half way in west stand and apart from 10 minute spells both halves they were nothing special .
Same as our support tbh

The way pne play doesn’t help

Exec boxes. Better SE corner

SE corner has Exec Boxes as well. It also has no real facilities on the concourse, with the first kiosk being in the west stand

The NE corner is being mentioned but I can see that causing problems

But would it solve the punctuation problem?

Not a surprise really. By the time the majority of them make it to bottom of the stairs, a large chunk of the home support is away from the stadium

And they're too knackered to do anything.

Also, most of our fans will be heading back to the city or the Metro. Opposite direction to their coaches, and far easier for crowd control.

Before, they'd come out of the South straight into people leaving the SWC/West

I wish we’d stop kicking towards them in the second half. I’ve asked before and the answer was the North Stand is supposedly the home end but it clearly isn’t. Can we not attack the South Stand 2nd half where all of the atmosphere generates from?

Can they play up front?
