Appears there was the SAG this week so might get something official in terms of what the allowed capacity is.

Wondering if they took off the kop roof and encased the lower standing in concrete or something to make it non slip or hazardous, maybe we could stick the away fans in there for now? sorry if I'm being stupid but it just seems to be a total waste to have it redundant.

not being stupid OS, the lower kop could be used for away fans, give them some seats in the town end of the yale stand, less segregation more available seats, i am sure there will be something stopping that from happening but thats all we get at most grounds

Shame there can’t be a temporary stand put up behind the goal for away fans like they have at Rodney Parade. I guess with the building work about to start there’s no chance of this happening.

It's quite annoying to hear a game has been sold out and seeing hundreds of empty seats.

i am sure there would be some health and safety concerns and there will probably be some sort of clause from the WAG that the kop cant be used because of funding issues, there will be something, which is unfortunate

As a lifelong fan along with my wife and grandson, I am absolutely amazed with the way things are progressing with the club, but living 2hrs travelling away and working some weekends, we have had to settle on seeing a game when circumstances allowed.
This hasn’t been a problem over the past years as we’ve been able to turn up as and when to watch a game, pay at the turnstiles without issue.
Now it seems that it will be very difficult to watch a game , as the ground will already be mostly full, which is fantastic, but having been there over these dire years in Non-League, watching teams I’ve never heard of mostly, paying entrance money, food and drink, a programme, money in the club shop, Gold bond, WST membership and in every way, apart from being at every game, supporting the club financially x 3 people..to be faced with not being a part of this now is very disheartening. It’s great that new supporters have felt that they want to be a part of this journey…but spare a thought for those of us who have been there over the years who can’t be now.
