The league game situation at the moment is bordering on a farce. An empty stand looks bad yes, but a scattering of fans all around is worse. For league games I personally don't feel as though I'm part of a crowd. I'm really surprised the club and Robins himself haven't addressed this. There's always going to be someone unhappy if you start closing seats, but somethings got to be done. With crowds as low as they are, this is a good time for experimenting. I'll also add that I've always thought the away fans have got the best stand!
I know the club probably have no say in this as well, but it's no longer sponsored by Tesco, so why are we calling it that? It should be named after one of our legends, bring the stadium, club and people who predominantly use it together. I know the rent situation etc but why don't we as fans do something like this? I personally cannot stand the amount of advertising, the fact it's called the Ricoh is still something that I feel disconnects it from many. Call me old fashioned, but football as a game has sold its soul. I still can't quite believe what Cardiff did over the summer, I'd like to think that if someone tried to change the sky blue colour there'd be uproar!
