Yeah not exactly years though is it, like you previously said.
A fair idea. But let's say you play Leeds or Hull for example, on a blisteringly hot sunday & they bring 4,000 fans, what the plan going to be then? I might be a Cas fan but I know 4,000 doesn't fit in to 1800.

Neither side have brought 4,000 supporters to BV for a long time.

The point remains though, say they bring 2,000 and 500 Wakefield fans stay in the West stand. What then?

We need to ensure that we don't make it unattractive for away fans as we need all the revenue we can get'"
What a load of rubbish the away fans have been coming to Belle vue,Whinos, Bradford for years with no roof must try harder..

Email the club with your concerns.
I'm an Eaststander anyway!

It is happening, if you want to stay in west stand then do so it will not change a thing, I'm sure you will be happy with away fans..
Leave us that want a home stand go North simple, and like others have said I have not seen a massive away following for years..

| It'll be interesting to see how this works over the season. How are stewards going to instantly differentiate between home and away fans if they're not wearing club colours?

| I wont be going in the north stand much sooner go down the sides but the only real way they could make the north stand home fans only is put a big fence each end and make the turnstiles that end season ticket only.Some like to watch the 1st half down the side then go in the north stand for the second half.
Ok no roof where I stand but lets face it rain water is only the stuff you end up getting a bath or shower in.Now theres an idea bring a bar of soap and if it rains weekly wash sorted

Ignore the point if you wish, but the likes of Leeds, Cas, Hull FC & Hull KR have all brought more than 1,800 in recent games.

| I cant decide if this is a good move or not.
If, as one poster suggests, Cas have declared tha Railway End to be exclusively for away fans, has there been some kind of directive from the RFL or, are we just trying to improve the atmosphere on matchdays.
It has already been mentioned that the capacity of the Western Terrace will struggle to cope with the numbers of fans from Leeds, Cas and the 2 Hull clubs, so will these games become ticket only.
Our group have stood on the Western Terrace for over 20 years and IMO it is the best view in the ground, also will entry and exit via the turnstiles on the west side of the ground be open to all supporters ?

I assume so, also with he club going down this route the turnstiles on Catherine Street must be manned. For the last two seasons they were shut.
I do think the dedicated family area is a great idea though. Hopefully that will resolve the issues parents have had going through separate turnstiles to their children.
