BP seating arrangements and improved atmosphere

[24hoursfromtulsehill]

I've got another idea. Instead of offering a huge discount on RRE season tickets for Chaddyenders, the club should hike the price of Chaddy season tickets to £50,000.

 

And make individual match tickets £10,000 apiece.

[HarryBosch]

I know there are ways & means to go about it; but "them tosser stewards" are only doing the job they're being paid to do.

Its an all seater stadium.

The clues in the title there.

You have to sit down.

The same stewards didn't make Preston sit down today, despite the clue being in the title

[HarryBosch]

Would the groans not also be more audible if we were all in the RRE?

 

Just putting it out there......

sounds like a cunning plan baldrick

My opinion is that we should avoid the singing fans at one end and away fans at the other end at all costs.

 

A survey of all league fans came to the conclusion that we were one of the better away days, especially for atmosphere. That's not because we have massively vocal home fans - we're no better or worse than any other club - it's that our home fans are next to the away fans. Look at Tranmere for the opposite.

 

Not only were our fans inaudible from even the Main Stand today due to the nature of the Chaddy, there was no banter betwen home and away fans either.

 

That's why I'd like a singing section in the new North Stand at the end closest the away fans much in the way Port Vale have, who tend to have a good atmosphere. That's the best option in terms of every dispute.

its different telling 2,000 Preston fans to sit down than 10 latics fans, don't you think?

[LaticsEddie]

Acousticly wise, what would the new stand be like? I dont knoe jack about sound so, will the wind breakers (or lack of) and a glass(?) Cover over the spectators effect the volume coming out of it if there was a singing section?

[yarddog73]

the new stand hasnt been designed with acoustics in mind you only have to look at the designs for that, matchday experiance isnt high on corneys list of priorities.

Yes, It would be but what's that got to do with anything?

Yet it always pops up when he discusses fans falling away and methods of bringing them back.

Fair play to the chaddy end on Saturday . It didn't carry over to the MSU rre side but you could see the effort was there .

 

What have Rotherham been allocated tomorrow night ? Small section of rre ?

[yarddog73]

yes i would of put them in the large to congregate the home support, if thats not possible corden the large section of the rre so that the home fans are in a couple of blocks behind the goals.

[HarryBosch]

We'll never be that unfunny.

LJ was impressed and must have realised it's not about swapping ends. He said: “They were brilliant and I thank them for that. I enjoyed the drum and they were going to sing win, lose or draw and that was fantastic.”

Why must he of realised that? He wants to keep fans in one half of Chaddy End with other half to away fans.

I think next season will see the RRE allocated to away fans only.

 

I'd suggest they price the Chaddy to be the home of the masses. Sort of.

With the new stand not being ready until at least January, I think next season might be the last season as it is.

 

Unless the pull down the Chaddy or Main Stand any time soon, which wouldn't surprise me!

Thought it was supposed to be open for start of next season? Can't remember seeing anything saying next January?

[OAFC_Ryan]

Wasn't the quoted time October? The latest blog said we should see some framework up by the Brentford game (end of this month).

[dazlatic]

Split the Chaddy between home and away fans. Best of both worlds

I remember before construction began it was quoted as a January 2014 - January 2015 construction time.

 

Whether this changes or not we'll see. They might be able to get the seats in and concourse done to get spectators in, before the upstairs offices/boxes etc are done.

When did he say that's what he wants?

LJ said if it was down to him he would give RRE to #oafc fans and split the Chaddy in two, 70s style...

Is it official that the stand won't be ready for the new season?
