Moving Away Fans / SSL3 /2 All City Fans.

[Gone for a Burton]

The Gist -:

1) Create 2 City ends, SS & NS

2) Make SSL3/2 exclusively City

3) Relocate away fans to ESL110/111 + SSL113 around the corner flag....shit acoustics/views

4) No compromise of exisiting security protocols. Several are enhanced.

5) Negliable CapEx

6) Improved atmosphere & stadium identity

7) Increased stadium capacity

8) Increased revenue in Legends

9) City fans above but close to away fans

10) Happy old GFAB.

Feel free to sdd.

Neither of those things should matter. Both clubs should be told to move away fans pitchside in any of the other stands. At the swamp we could go in the Main Stand and at St James’ in that little stand at the side. Talk about tail wagging the dog!

I think you'll find it does matter, hence why United and Newcastle get special dispensation from the PL to do that.

Disabled people have to be catered for. That's where United's disabled section is.

As for Newcastle, I would assume it is physically impossible to have the away fans from top to pitch side in the stand. Not to mention possible trouble occuring between both sets of fans. That would be a PL, Council/H&S, and Police concern.

I'm sure when United and Newcastle build new stadiums, away fans will have to be pitch side in those plans.

Just accept it and move on

Not going to happen.
If the away club don't sell out then not giving them the 3rd tier makes things much easier for everyone and that then wouldn't be possible.
Spreading them out more also makes it harder for them to create an atmosphere.

Not so.

Under such cirmcumstances sell ESL111 first,110 next & if they cant sell SSL113 give it to City.

All segergation protocols can be maintained irrespective of only 1,2 or all three blocks selling.

Are there enough seats in 110,111 & 113 to give them the 3,000 we’d be required to give?

Just about but If not..... fuck em on police advice and reduce their numbers !!

600 a block SS1 but 110 is a lot smaller.

I did a count of the seats in each block a few years ago and there were 568 seats each in 111 & 113 and 469 in 110, so a total of 1605 by my reckoning, so probably quite a way short.

That seems to match my numbers.

No, it's like our SSL3. Away fans have their own entrances, and there is segregation at the top.

Saying that, home and away fans do cross over and mix as they make there way to the away end under the stand. It can get a bit boisterous, and has kicked off on occasions. There are plenty of Police and stewards around. Its a bit like United's forecourt, but under the stand.
