Yes the term knickers for football shorts was just taken as read in those days. Things move on and changes happen, not always for the better unfortunately.And 'White knickers' I notice. How times have changed.
I told her they’re lazy bastards and should get a move on. Also I hope there’s space for a Bundobust concession under the canopy.Did you give her a fatherly talk to put her right? :)
It made a huge difference to us in SSL3 for the Brentford game and killed the atmosphere up there. In fact, it is the first game in a while where fans around me have sat down (I didn't like it). I thought they were on about putting safe standing rails up there ?Going back to the discussion about relocating the away fans from SSL3 and filling the SSL3 safe standing section with City fans.
Brentford.
Wasted tier.

Inter Milan.
Safe standing seats on SSL3 sold to City fans. Apparently it filled up later on into the game. Not my picture. Taken from another thread.

Regarding Brentford’s support. Brentford fans on SSL2 and SSL3 could have probably fitted in to blocks 110 and 111, meaning both SSL2 and SSL3 could have been full of City fans. 1000+ safe standing City fans on SSL3, and City could have made more money from City fans on SSL2.
Could have been revised, I don't see why we can't sell them in 1000 blocks to teams who fail to take up there allocation. We should then be able to sell them to City fans.I thought that as well. Maybe it’s has been revised? There’s no way Brentford would sell 3000 away tickets.
The alway fans are not moving anywhere The police want them there to expedite getting them away, particularly the coaches the PL require fans to have a lower tier presence Some clubs get a waiver for historic reasonsMove the away fans to ESL1 and relocate our fans to SSL2& 3.
Two atmospheric home ends behind the goals.
Where there's a will there's a way !!
Thanks but no thanks , got no desire to move and watch a game from behind the goal , stood and sat on the kippax for years .Move the away fans to ESL1 and relocate our fans to SSL2& 3.

Didn't programme's used to call socks, stockings?And 'White knickers' I notice. How times have changed.
There is no disadvantage or risk to the police if away fans were located in ESL1.The alway fans are not moving anywhere The police want them there to expedite getting them away, particularly the coaches the PL require fans to have a lower tier presence Some clubs get a waiver for historic reasons
Like carlosthejackal has already mentioned, why should he or I for that matter, move to a shitty vantage point behind/to the side of the goal posts to let the away fans have a better view of the game. (45 years in the Kippax/East stand)There is no disadvantage or risk to the police if away fans were located in ESL1.
It is the simplest of low cost/no cost reorganisation to organise with NO risk, but several advantages.
No risk to segregation, security,health & safety, logistics or coach transport.
Away fans could be directed to alight from the metro at ASDA/ANR directly in to their security zone & away from JMW & CB coach welcome.
Additionally there will be NO away fans throwing missiles down on to City fans and they will all be pitchside which the PL prefer.
Finally, a second 'dedicated 'home end' exclusively for City fans, will help build a more intense, hostile atmosphere which will help the the team and the matcday experience.
This is probably the last and best opportunity to set the stadium up in the very best way for the long term future !!!
Remove the blinkers, where there's a will, there's away !!
You keep on repeating this myth. We should leave away fans exactly where they are. Split over 3 tiers. Simply make SSL3 all safe standing. Make sure the relocations after that are managed so that they create a singing section and give 1894 blocks of singers. It would take some effort from the club but it could be easily managed.There is no disadvantage or risk to the police if away fans were located in ESL1.
