Some poeople i know, saying they are getting emails asking them their opinions on how to improve the stadium and matchday experince/expand the stadium
My opinion: I think it would be agood idea to take the south stand, remove the tiers and make it into a one tier super stand. Unlikley, however with our funds nothing is impossible.
In this super stand make it majority safe standing. Also make it, largely a season ticket holders stand(at present you cannot buy a season ticket in the south stand). Finally take the access away on the concourse to walk around to the south stand. This will prevent people from getting a ticket in the north stand and walking round to the south stand where the atmosphere is better. Finally increase the bars in this area by three as at the moment its crap.
Next, put the away fans where the singing stand is now, like it used to be in the old Kippax at mainroad. Continue with the singing section in the kippax, on the other side of the away fans and have a safe standing area there aswell.
This means if you want to stand, sing, swear or even be near people that do, you have a place to do it. If you dont want any of that, you have a place to do it.
Also we should have gimmicks like dortmund had last night, or even like we have had in the past with lights out, scarves etc. Fire the crowd up before the games... in new and creative ways.
In the singing sections i wouldn't mind a drum or even a bell if it fired people up again.
Get the atmosphere going for a few games and we will back to the days of Main Road. Its only been 10 years, allot has happen to the club but the fans have not changed that much.
