The purpose of the new stands is to give some cover if it rains. Nothing else.

| You could hear more noise from the East stand. Generated a much better atmosphere.
I like it.  |

Does anyone remember the lack of atmosphere in the ground when the South end was completely open? The flats, apart from generating lads of income and providing amazing hospitality opportunities, went a long way towards preventing the atmosphere rushing out of the stadium.
The new roof did a simular thing on Sunday by bouncing the sound from the East and North Terrace back into the ground, the roof on the North terrace will improve things even more.
It won't look pretty but it will achieve a positive effect on the match day atmosphere and it does signal our intent to be better as a club and make positive strides forward.

Since the old men who stand about moaning into their (overpriced) Bovril about everything from the colour of the advertising hoardings to the fact that our players gumshields are slightly to one side - decided it!

That's exactely it!! But it will add atmosphere and it could helped influence a few more fans to come who may have been wavering. |

found yesterday quite dis-spiriting generally, team were awful, shudds were way off the pace, etc and the stand was just a laughing stock to away fans, and as for the noise???? who bloody cares???
another false dawn at the moment for me, ok we are afloat, but to be fair i dont think the wholesale clearout has helped, many people dont buy in to this team as they have not seen it develop.

IF ONLY! Except for the inevitable reduction on future gates I would love to decide who got to go in with their mouths taped up

pardon me! you know what i meant, there is an end that is ussually occupied by the away support, yes i'm aware that people still change ends at your ground, but it's funny how you jumped down my throat when other posters just answered my question! HTH |

the same old men who have kept this club going through the dark years? yes bovril and anything else on match days is expensive when you are trying to exist on a pension. we don't have that much disposable income and without getting political if this government is in for much longer i can only see me having to pick my games. |

Give me a shout and you can have some out of my flask - no charge. Bring your own cup though - that's where I draw the line. |
