B4ev6is Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 With north stand mostly empty now I think maybe is the time to start another stand for singing section another top end were people can stand up during game. Even if market at £15 a game in that stand so if miss out on south stand there will be another standing section. Even if just upper section and leave lower section for kids so they can still sit down if they want too. 48 hours, jimtastic56, Woodley Ram and 4 others 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B4ev6is Posted October 20, 2021 Author Share Posted October 20, 2021 What I mean If we can have two stand joining in with each other or start different songs of. Like at bbg pop side or kop side I think it was called. Maybe something similar can be done at pp. And people can start family friendly songs while south stand can still do naughty songs. So for me this will encourage kids to join in rather than have sit in silent to scared to join in case get told off by mum or dad. 48 hours, Kathcairns, angieram and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crewton Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Wasn't this tried by one group a few seasons ago? Set themselves up in the top left block? Petered out fairly quickly I think, but perhaps worth another go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1967RAMS Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 It’s a non starter. It would dilute the atmosphere if the singers were split. The reason the north stand is empty is because only around 20 K want to show up atm in total, south stand isn’t full so if anyone wants to stand and sing they could still go in there. There is zero demand for another 4000 singers/ standers at PP at the moment. A better idea is to offer it as a kids for a quid stand or even a tenner for accompanying adults and a kid . With the extra pop/ crisps it would pay for itself. Better having a family of 4 paying 20 notes than an empty stand 48 hours, jimtastic56, Carl Sagan and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mucker1884 Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Fact is, the last thing we need right now is any form of organised standing areas. They are against the rules, and if the club sanctioned it, or even so much as turned a blind eye to it, I fear The EFL will come down on us like a ton of bricks! In fact, The Southstanders should sit down and be noisy. And we shouldn't allow away fans to stand either, as that could also land us in hot water. In fact, we shouldn't even be allowed to stand as we finish our burgers outside before entering the stadium. In fact, we should all be made to crawl to the stadium, just in case. In fact, we should make our new club anthem "We'll sit, and you know we will"! Fact is, we could even win awards for the best behaved fans in the top two divisions. Might regain a little trust, and a handful of friends! I don't think I've ever posted so many facts in one post before. Where do I stand in the most facts posted within a single thread league table, I wonder? Now... What was the question, again? 48 hours 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simmo’s left foot Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 (edited) Its actually illegal to stand at an all seater stadium. Sooner or later somebody is going to get seriously injured. The north stand is a family stand, a lot of elderly and young families. What a great idea if you want to drive people away from the stadium, me included.

All I suggest was upper bit and rest of lower seating that all and pp was given permission for south stand to standing. But away games everyone stands up so that never ever ever going to change.

Ram1988 Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 How about offering family tickets in the north stand where the childrens tickets are free? Something to increase the attendance and help generate extra revenue. jimtastic56, 48 hours and Kathcairns 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boycie Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Get the points and the singing will intensify. A loud south stand will encourage other stands, as has happened in the past.

Loads on here denied they could hear us or Clough waved. It all got a bit silly. Tbf, we all got our move to the South Stand from the South East Corner soon after, so it was redundant really. There really wouldn't be enough to ever make it work. therams69 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As someone said earlier, it’s was tried and failed. Do you think the atmosphere is bad then? I think it’s the best it’s been for a while, and that’s with reduced attendance. Split the south stand in half and put half in the north will only make the atmosphere half as good. Each end would barely hear the other, plus each end would now be on half volume. Get the chips back! That’s a campaign worth fighting! ? 48 hours 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't disagree with you by the way, if fans want to sit down to watch the match they should be able to as they have paid for a seat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the administrators have discussed this and said that they dont believe giving away free tickets will lead to an increase in revenue. jimtastic56 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
