Re: Ground improvments
Why were season ticket holders asked to say where they prefer to sit or stand when such wholesale changes were in the pipeline?

Re: Ground improvments
Sounds like exciting plans. By aiming for the league, you are obviously going to lose a lot of things that many people like about being a non-league club like standing where you feel like and moving around the ground but hopefully this will be the springboard to take us to more exciting times in the nearer future.

Re: Ground improvments
Yes, I think its great but with a 2000 stand on the airport side eventually, i would like the other sides of the main stand to be standing.
But thats a minor quible, congrats to the club and the board for their efforts and planning this season, lets hope it continues to bear such sweet fruit.

Well Block P, the stand on that side existing say last Saturday, tickets are being available there, for home fans. But that stand, it is over half sold at this moment.
But the standing areas, blocks Q & R, they are not available. Enough standing areas for home fans?

Re: Ground improvments
Very encouraged by the plans to improve the ground, although as others have said, it will inevitably result in losing some of its non-league charm.
Hopefully the board will consider the naming of the new/redeveloped stands and not just go for the corporate sponsorship approach across the whole ground. It would be great to see a "Bob Faulkner Stand" somewhere at the ground, rather than just "Wadsworth", "Draintech", "Sportsnation.bet" etc.

When you click on ticket type for block P it says away fans only ?
Been down the ground this morning and got two tickets for the open air stand in the corner Block F

Re: Ground improvments
Vinny, you are right. That is not good, the block is marked "Home Covered Seating - Block P".
That needs to be corrected.

Re: Ground improvments
Can someone clarify where Moors can go Saturday inside the ground to stand.
On the plan we can book Wordsworth end blocks S,T and U or the main stand side block C and block A (not sure exactly where that is).
Block F the open stand is for away supporters.
