it's incredibly difficult to move people em masse though. They were going apeshit when the north stand became the family stand and they aren't even good seats. You've got a corporate area on tier one too which cant really be moved.

Only one elegant solution for me, and I'm sure you've seen me piss on about it before. Swap the away fans with the south stand city section. Make the relocated city fans sit in a mirror image of their current seats so they'll still be with their mates and have an identical vantage. Noone complains, there's suddenly a double sized singing area
Making double the noise. Problem
Solved.

The club are telling people this isn't possible for safety reasons but that's a lie. They even canvassed fans' views in a survey last year. Chuck a
Few quid and some imagination at it and it could be done.

That's why all this Citizen's stuff, disregarding the ridiculousness of their ideas, is a dead duck. The problem is not the fans in the singing areas. It's the rest of the ground.[/quote]


Well there is no harm in trying.

Should be a good laugh tomorrow... :)

oh and to Liam,you made a comment with regards to how "The Citizens" made comments about TBA just being a stag doo... Wrong!

It was me who made those comments. Yes I am an organiser with The Citizens but those are my personal opinions... every time I've come across TBA they've been a gang of lads in/outside a pub completely rat-arsed and throwing ale everywhere.... Great if you're involved in it :) but rather uncomfortable and uninviting if you ain't involved :(

These are my views and also of people who've gone to away games with me.

The Citizens may come across like this aswel in the future... Who knows.

gotta say this is bollocks. I only went away games with my uncle or my mate, I didnt know anybody else who followed city away. then we met the ba lads and ive gotta say some of the lads there, that i go with now, are the soundest i know. in fact i think they are, as a group, the most inviting and welcoming group of lads ive ever come across.
they took a mini bus to fulham away last year, and ended the season taking 3 full coaches to newcastle away, they cant be that uninviting can they?
im suprised they still tolerate this shit because they get so much grief from a load of wankers on here.

Come on, thats a bit of an over exaggeration?
We only want to have a laugh at a few of the EDS games and see whether there is a chance of anything Long term.

We aren't trying to bring down TBA with some snide comments on a forum very few match going fans actually look at.


You're taking a very sinister view about something that really is just trying to be a laugh.

sinister? just trying to explain that the BA are far from uninviting and uncomfortable to be with, thats all.

???

I havent got any problems with BA, and it's over the top to call people 'a load of wankers' just for having a different opinion? You should see the amount of shit I've got for trying to see whether this works. Doesn't make me go on saying everyone is wanker, TBA do a lot of good work and the majority of them are good lads, but they have started something that is bound to get some negative feedback... you cant please everyone all the time.

However on here we really arent trying to have a go at them.

by a load of wankers i didnt mean you lot, i mean the usual threads started about them. ones where they get blamed for a ruck outside the ground or a firework thrown by a city fan.

i agree everyones entitled to an opinion, but being mates with them, i just cant agree that they're uninviting. thats really my only point, the wankers bit was aimed at generally anybody who start those rumours, nothing to do with you lot ...

 

[Why Always Ste]

Internet squabbles... We're all allowed to express our opinions, myself having formed opinions from my own experiences with BA... Experiences continue however and I may have some positive experiences of BA (possibly tomorrow)

Stimo - you've had some good times with BA... good stuff :)

A lad I went over to Ajax with had nothing but praise of one of BA members (Felix)

I'm not here to point fingers and say how shit BA are because if you look throughout my comments on this board over the years I've had much praise for TBA and on several occasions invited them down to our supporters club (which was ignored)

This topic is about The Citizens... Can we please keep it on-topic.

to be honest ive only seen the slagging off coming from non-members of either group on here.
