There is a bar in south stand.

If it's open, I'd choose the north stand out of nostalgia/novelty factor. The terracing is banked much steeper in that end of the ground.

so long since been in that end forgotten what its like.

Let's confuse the TV company & all buy standing tix for that end. More beers & chips in the South stand for HalifaxJohn......

When I was young I was very foolish, I hadn't seen the light (Rugby League) I stood on the North Bank to watch Town v Birmingham, Trevor Hockey for Birmingham, the following year, I think, Town v Stoke, Gordon Banks in goal, the ground was packed both times. Both cup games.
That's when crowds were crowds!
Showing my age?
Never
Off for my Horlicks, wher'es my slippers?

I've always like the View from the North Terrace, much steeper banking although a little more open to the elements.

My dad was disappointed when the roof went on the North, as him and a few others used to spectate Halifax Town games from the roof of the HBOS carpark
