MuespachRam Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Nice one Nick. Although i would never ever want to stand up to watch football (30+ years of playing it and running marathons has put an end to my knees) i can see the merits of it. It would create an amazing atmosphere, we need to keep pushing this and be the FIRST in England to get it implemented, that is the sort of positive vibee we need coming out of the club. Lets be forward thinking, the kids want this, and so do some grown ups i presume, they are the future of our club, you only need to look at all the nostalgic posts on here to see how much this great club influences your life. Well done again Nick, everyone please get behind this, even if, like me, you are not going to be queing up for the standing area.....we all remember the pop side.......oh happy days!!! By the light......by the light, by the light.....of the silvery moon....silvery moon silvery moon..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

i84est Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Think all clubs will want this as it's a way of increasing capacity which means more reddies for clubs nothing to do with atmospheres Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAILLY 22 Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 I have had lots of meetings with club and in particular Clough over this. I strongly believe him. He wants this. brilliant effort, would love to see standing at pride park one day, used to love standing at the baseball ground as a nipper. one question - how much influence would clough have over any such decision? is this not a boardroom decision? sorry if you've answered this before!

A big influence. TO be honest everyone at the club wants it. Clough is very keen on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-JW- Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Well there was a record number of people online last night so maybe there was a lot of other fans reading this thread. And, how many times did it say Nick in that statement?? Don't think anyone will forget your name now. Good news though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uttoxram75 Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Hi all, First off this has nothing to do with the sale of Shacks or what you may think of the board / manager with what has happened in the last 24 hours. I helped to start this campaign a year or so ago for Derby County Fans and must carry it all the way through. Please see below statement from Jon Darch, myself and Derby County. This is absolutely FANTASTIC news and will hopefully get the ball rolling for many other clubs to come out publically and state they want safe standing. Derby are the second club to announce they are interested. More clubs come forward and we may get this very soon. [url=http://http://tinyurl.com/d7avw2v]http://tinyurl.com/d7avw2v Thanks for all your support. There may well be a long way to go but this is a huge hurdle completed, believe me!! Nick You got a mention here Nick...... http://www.fsf.org.uk/news/Derby-County-and-Nigel-Clough-back-safe-standing.php?id= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
therams69 Posted July 9, 2012 Author Share Posted July 9, 2012 Cheers Uttox. The article has spread well. Glad DCFC put it on our website as well. Still waiting for DET to print the story mind! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davenportram Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 They are only printing bad news at the moment. I particularly like todays fans are right to be outraged about Shackell The sale caused fury Yet no fans quotes or interviews Surely they could have found somebody to back up the headline.

ladyram Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Phone in tonight on RD with Bloomers and Nick, debating safe standing, with positive and supportive comments from NC too, so get ringing in with your opinions folks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alph Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Any chance the switch over to South Stand will be discussed etc too? I'm dreaming of a Derby end. Away fans make us look like the audience at the crucible sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
