it is essential that the club market the new 'north' stand as a singing and general mayhem area - they can word it how they like! - it will be small enough for it to be near full every match with old northstanders, plus all the rowdy teenagers and kids, similar to the groups that used to make up the old north. the ticket offcie should be trained to advise buyers of 'north' tickets that it will be rowdy. stewards should be checking bags for thermos flasks and blankets on the gates just in case some south standers get lost.
i remember my dad letting me go from the top of the east to the north when i was old enough, it was a natural progression, a social rite, and i hope that the next generations view the falmer example as a similar promotion.
the worse thing about withdean is that the north/east/west and southers are all mixed together - all these parts of the goldstone had their own personalities and that needs to be re-created.
it's exciting because i think the club will do just that.
Couldn't agree more! I think someone should mention this on the phone in or something just to give it more exposure. It's got to happen. A real singing section!
