Back of the South corner (where everyone stands anyway) and some of the away section

He explains the capacity issue. The main thing is that we have to have an all-seater stadium, so these are rail seats and take up as much space as the previous ones.

Not sure this is the best day to say he wants Brisbane Road to be "a cauldron".

Re: Safe standing - installed
Talks about how the women found it boring beating everyone 14-0 (like they didn’t know what they were signing up for) so have all gone up a few tiers (presumably to Tooting Bec or whoever the mccafferys have bought) because surprisingly, we “only” got promoted one tier.

If only "common sense" had prevailed! I guess we have as little regard for the long-established principles of league football as the Americans do now.

Re: Safe standing - installed
I did get that impression too. Presumably the margins are better (no pun intended) on a bigger, more expensive programme.Fellowo wrote: Wed Jun 24, 2026 3:55 pm Sounds like this will be the last season for the matchday programme.

Amazing how little self-awareness everyone involved in that has and continues to show.OyinbO wrote: Wed Jun 24, 2026 3:01 pmIf only "common sense" had prevailed!

Wonder how much more expensive.
I buy one to keep my boy entertained before and after a game. Worth the experiment but not if it’s £8 a pop

Re: Safe standing - installed
So we've spent tens of thousands on putting these rails in the SS section just so the Tits and Fanny crew can stand up and shout at the away fans?SpiceAlbert wrote: Wed Jun 24, 2026 2:42 pm He explains the capacity issue.

I'm not sure they've got priorities right.

Re: Safe standing - installed
Its a match day experience for everyone mate. People that used to stand behind goal had that taken away from them. Now people can stand without being told to si dawn.

Always stood on the north Terrace exceptClactonorient wrote: Wed Jun 24, 2026 5:13 pm Its a match day experience for everyone mate. People that used to stand behind goal had that taken away from them. Now people can stand without being told to si dawn.
For that period they switched the away end to coranation gardens end. Great to have safe standing even though I wouldn't be using it

Re: Safe standing - installed
I'm in the TJS . Back row (Block D) and stand perpetually. To be fair I think only once has a steward come up and told me/us to sit down; and thereafter they gave it up.Clactonorient wrote: Wed Jun 24, 2026 5:13 pm Its a match day experience for everyone mate.

Sitting down is really bad for us, don'tcha know. Don't believe me - check out the state of the average black cab driver.
