Really intrigued to see how the new position for BA works out with a pretty much full house. Bejng the first game of the season you’d imagine there might be banners / Tifos planned, but woukd these still be in the SBRL if so?
I wasn’t there last night, but assuming there’s little that can be concluded about how the new position worked out? |  | | |  |

Are the two groups really separate? What's the difference nowadays? |  | | |

Sat in cobbold upper lastnight, and whilst I know they won’t be sitting down, the seating up there is fcking dreadful! People actually pay to ‘sit’ up there! |  |

It's absolutely brutal on the knees innit. I used to sit there a lot as a boy/teenager but hadn't been in it for quite a while before Bolton last season. Never again. | |

Not the best up there is it!
With all the stadium work that happened this year, I’m a bit surprised no safe shabdj f was introduced anywhere | | | |

I think they were in their usual spot in the North lower yesterday. |  |

We sat on the halfway line in the front row of the D section, it was great but I suspect the only part of the entire stand where you don't get your shins shredded. Hopefully, they announce its replacement soon. |  | | |

We sat in the section nearest away fans, and looks as though they’ve done work up there to put in new safety features, barriers so away fans won’t be sat behind the posh seats in section D
Also, screens up (about 12/15”) at the front so away fans would struggle to get on the cobbold boxes to celebrate a goal. | |

They've definitely reconfigured the seats in the away end. E block has been split so that some of this section now forms part of V1 and home fans can be sat behind D block.
Screens have probably been put up, so that away teams can sell tickets in the front 2 or 3 rows and ITFC meet the 2,000 minimum allocation. | | | |

Display wise, there’ll be something in A-Block on Saturday as it’s our first proper game up there.
We’ll be doing the smaller tifos that we used to do in S6 up there instead now, but will still do the bigger ones on the North Stand as and when.
Atmosphere wise, I think it can only be a good thing. Essentially all we’re doing is adding another few hundred singers in the block next to the NS, which should help the sound travel further to the other end.
No doubt there’ll be some teething problems at the start with different songs being sung, but once both stands get in unison it should work well. |  | | |

Yep.
I was a bit sceptical for the Burnley cup game last season, but there was no adverse affect on the atmosphere at all, and was improved further. |  |

I attended a game at the Nou Camp a few months back. I was in the home end and I noticed the "rabble rousers" for want of a better word, were all down the front. There was guys with drums and megaphones. They'd face backwards toward the Barca crowd behind and basically conduct the singing. Seemed to work quite well. |  |

Good work
Think we need a big atmosphere for Stoke game.
And I think they’ll be a lot of bottled emotion and energy from the end of last season’s glory that’s going to spill out at kick-off! Really looking forward to it. |  |

The new barriers are in place with lockable gates, meaning they can’t sit behind D block, from what I could make out lastnight | |

Why would you go to a football match and spend the whole time with your back to the pitch? | | | |

The stand at Elland rod, the way it wraps round the corner is great. Wish we could have the same, as they make a helluva noise at Elland road. | |
