I don't think AG tells you because I don't think he really wants your input...no offence but I'm sure AG is a better business man that you and probably has all your worries covered and then some. Letting us know about all the "nitty gritty" would not be productive as most of the clubs fans (myself included) are massively under-qualified to even have an opinion on it.

Anyone else think it will be chaos? I don't think we are giving credit to the volume of fans they will bring! I'm all up for us getting together behind the sticks but I'm not convinced this method will work.

It would be chaos if these measures weren't enforced, as for volume of fans the east terrace does hold a few thousand & cas dont bring that many compared to Leeds or both hull clubs who bring the most travelling support to belle vue

I've not yet ever been impressed by the stewards at BV...

These measures have been taken for 2 reasons:

1. This new roof will ensure there will be a huge amount of noise and atmosphere. Why would we want away fans to congregate on the North stand and make our players feel as if we're playing away ??? We have spent this money as part of the licence application but we 'as a club' have decided to make this our kop so to speak to give our players the lift they need - as every other side do in SL. This is our ground and we have every right to enforce who goes where. Not popular in everyones eyes but we must try and look after the interests of our own first.

2. Although we dont like to think there are problems and issues within the crowd due to this 'Rugby Family' thingy, reality is we do have problems from time to time. With a 7.30 kick off on a bank holiday there will be numerous fans from both sides who will be on the ale most of the day before the game - and i would guess that the majority of those will be young lads. With this in mind the decision the club have made to seperate home and away fans on this occasion seems like a very good idea to me. Why risk problems ? Away fans tend to stand on the North Stand and we are currently on a massive push to get as many of our fans on the North stand. Lots of beer + fans mixing in cramped conditions = trouble.

Hopefully the game will go to plan ( for us ) and the only talking points will be what happens on the field. But im 100% behind the club on this and feel it will prevent unsavoury scenes.

Good Lad! I'm sure you'll be the first of many.
