Behind the goal (5 Viewers)

[Saddlebrains]

That went well didnt it.

After the flood of people claiming we would have a sky blue wall dortmund style and claiming they would move tickets to sit there.


Have a look on the stadium plan


Pitiful. Think the club will regret opening that stand up again

Show me where a flood of people- in fact anyone- claimed that there would be a sky blue wall behind the goal?

Tesco stand only holds about 13k doesn’t it? Had to open up somewhere. Reality is the grounds just too big

Not really true, we’re not a good enough team to get the people who would come to come

 

[Ccfcisparks]

In all honesty the ground is too big for us. A club of our size should be looking to have a stadium of around 20k and be filling it most weeks.

Yep, a 24000 stadium would of been ample for us!

Good job we're building a smaller one at Warwick University then.

Then what happens if we got promoted and the ground is too small (which it would be), that was the point of the then-Ricoh in the first place.

 

[Tommo1993]

Always thought a ground the size of Deepdale or Madjeski would’ve done us just fine.

Any idea of a Dortmund like ‘wall’ was always complete pie in the sky bollocks with a fan base like ours.

I’ve gone behind the goal. Block 29.

We used to have a perfectly good one like that.

All that money, losing our city centre ground and the heartache and pain since for a ground no longer ours to increase our capacity by about 9000 which we have never achieved. Can’t we turn back time ?

Tbf only went that end as my dad can’t be in and around the carnage anymore and I don’t want my lad in there either.

Sky Blue twitter makes this place look sane

He does have Twitter

I like the idea of sitting behind the goal… but the sun gets in your eyes horrendously there. Should put the away fans at that end of the ground

 

[GaryMabbuttsLeftKnee]

Still 10 days to go and a payday but the amount of tickets sold so far makes for very grim viewing. Hopefully next week there’s a bit of a surge.

Sunglasses perhaps?

Regret it, why on earth would they regret it? Makes no sense.

It'll be great to have supporters behind the goal again. It'll be well occupied for some games, not so much for others. So what. At least fans have the option to sit there rather than be forced to buy on row A or sit in the shit corner seats when the east stand fills up, which it will for many games.

Yeah walk up.

 

[Liquid Gold]

The o my real difference would be if we were able to put rail seating in.

At least it’s another excuse people can’t use. Although they’ve already moved on to £30 a game (for 6 games)

Nobody is making any excuses on this issue. It was the club that used the phrase 'sky blue wall' but then proceeded to prevent anyone buying in there for the first season ticket release of 8000. By the time they opened it, more than 80% of season ticket holders had already bought, and probably couldn't be arsed to move. It'll probably grow in popularity as the season goes on.

But, isn't the £30 thing a genuine excuse when used in reference to non attendance at one of the 6 games that is £30?

“excuse” no one has an obligation to watch the football. It’s not doing the dishes or leaving your bins out. It’s an entertainment choice. The only people to blame is the product isn’t selling is those selling it.

What if the product is crap?

Then people won’t buy it. Invest in the product

Then they should say "I don't want to go and watch the football" - fine

If they say "I don't want to go and watch the football because it's £30" then the reason (a synonym of excuse) they've used is the cost, not the lack of obligation.
