Sadly it’s not a question of can we get some temporary stands, but can we afford to get some temporary stands.

| Quote ="vastman"Hi PB.
Sadly we can thank Trinity’s endless bad luck. Myself with the help of Klav came up with a plan to sort the west terrace. A two phase job. Very basic but neat. MC/JM we’re smitten.
It was hoped there might have been enough cash left to do phase one.
Sadly a massive hike has put an end to tha for now. If we’d have started the rebuild 18 months ago it would probably have happened.
PM me you email address and I’ll send you the plans. No big deal now
'"
Any chance you can post the images on here, just be interesting to see what it would look like. Would still need the tv cameras on that side do they face the new stand.

| If Lino’s drop goal would have gone over all this hullabaloo about those seats would have put the boot in the other foot with fans having a dig at saints .Personally I’d never noticed them and was stood there earlier in the day watching my grandson play for Eastmoor dragons . The state of the ground is secondary for me and always has been to the game . But moving forwards the new stand will stick out like a sore thumb if everything else doesn’t at least get a tickle of paint ,even weeding areas .Personally I think everyone has their eye on the bigger picture at the club ,but attention to detail certainly needs stepping up .

| Any respect I had for Saints has now gone after Sunday. The photos on their official twitter page looks like a child had posted. The reaction of their fans in the seats and their comments made towards our fans was totally uncalled for. Will look with interest if they post photos or made snide comments when they next visit Cas!

Yet Leeds Council facilitated £37million borrowing for the Headingley upgrade and they spent precisely £0 on upgrading the accommodation for away fans. I don't recall any flak going Leeds' way following their big spend.

Is the rain falling on Leeds' open terrace not as wet as the rain on ours?

I have no respect for Saints many years ago at Knowsley Road the Saints compare had right dig over Mike about Wakey and it's fans. I have never returned since to Knowsley Road or their new stadium.

If that's your only criteria then of course it's the same.

In what way is it [isignificantly[/i better?
The gradient of the terrace? OK.
But it's miles to the loos & bars.
And it's in Leeds.

As an away fan, i have to admit the experience of standing in your away end compared to leeds is alot worse.
Even on the no roof front, to be fair though you do have that small bit of cover on one end which is where i usually stand at your place for that reason, so you may get a slight lead on that one.
The viewing is much worse due to the gradient, some parts of the pitch if it is crowded you can't see at all and are constantly having to move around if you are near people of a similar height.
Toilets and bars are not that far really at headingley for it to be a real issue, the toilet situation at wakefield a few weeks ago was atrocious though. Only 1 small set of toilets for what was a pretty full away end was shocking, can only get about 8 people in the room at a time, had to queue up not to mention they was disgusting! Normally there are toilets open in the building near the flats that are the ones i normally use, much bigger and much nicer but for some reason they were closed this time around. Anybody know why? hopefully that is not permanent.
Just my honest opinions as somebody who has been an away fan in both stadiums many times.
Saying all that leeds are trying their best to even it up!
one way system on the steps which has never been in place before that i can remember? top steps for up to the away end / bottom steps for going down to the toilets and bars. Strictly enforced aswell even if there was nobody in sight on the quite roomy top steps.
Ale in crappy paper cups that went flimsy very quickly, luckily i was driving so didn't effect me but my mates weren't so chuffed and neither were others around us.
Rugby was rubbish aswell, but that's another story entirely

I hadn't realised they had closed the large toilet block!! That seems odd.
Most home fans would agree that it's the West terrace (away fans), that really let's the ground down, now that the East re-build is in progress.

| Being saying it for years.
Why oh why do we let away fans stand down the sides and not shove them behind the sticks which other teams do so they can not really help the referee with forward passes and off sides.
All our home games are nearly away games

Me and Mr Bliss stood there for years and loved it, sorry but we did. I'm a fan of the current management but they don't get everything right.

| I opted to go sit in the East Terrace and we know that Sky camera angles etc etc wouldn’t permit a roofed terrace but a great shame that the West was handed over to away supporters.

We used to stand level with the front of the old west stand which wasn't too bad. The front section is too low. Looking at the heritage site it's where the cycle track used to be.
Glover moved us to the North after he'd splashed out on the roof and made it home fans only. Before that it was mainly away fans.
Radio commentary is now from the west, so picks up the noise of the away fans.

Well it’ll be quiet on the radio next home game v Catalans, if it’s raining then at least home fans can use the small shelter in the corner

Would have been a better idea putting seating under the west terrace stand.

I'm sure the East Stand ticket holders would have been delighted with that view.
