As already mentioned, it does seem a great shame we cannot split either QLE or the north stand. As of yesterday Stevenage had sold 146 tickets, so we really have missed out on a chance to get a home support of 7000 or more . Either way, the mill will be rocking, COYS!

This limited ground capacity/SAG/ticketing system/only having 3 sides of the stadium needs sorting out ASAP - especially if we are promoted.

The sooner we build a new stand on Bishop St. the better! I know you are probably fed up of me banging on about it .... but there really is a case for having a proper 4 sided stadium like everyone else has, and it is good that the majority now recognise that it is more important than a hotel.

Anyway, we can talk about a new Bishop st. stand in the summer - Today is all about what happens on the pitch. Come on you Stags - don't bottle it. Go out there, give it 100% and show your class. You are good enough and deserve to be promoted. You have the backing of wonderful owners and fans.... now go and grab that prize!

If were going to do work on the bishop street then extra work in the north to add segregation needs looking at with also new ticketing policy’s where all tickets are available online.

Agreed. Given that a new east stand will probably only hold approx. 2,000 ...... it would advantageous to have flexibility with segregation in both the East and North stand - in order to accommodate a really large away following, or in the less likely event where we can sell 8,000+ home seats and are playing against a team that only brings a few hundred supporters. Initially we could probably get away with just making the new east stand flexible segregation - as the latter scenario is less likely at the moment.

Sorted. I think between us we have found the perfect solution assuming the club and the Radford's ambition is sustained. This issue is a minor one compared to the Bolton and Bury ones. COYS.

We filled the ground and turned up.

Did the side? No.

Rinse and repeat.

How many times a season do we actually fill it though? We only just sold out todays game. I needs doing I just don’t see why spending a ton of money of something and spreading fans out would be useful

Okay explain how a fully sold out home end equates to 6,100 fans?

I think the home capacity is about 7,000. Take 10% off equals 6,300, so not far off full for a non all ticket game.

The official website said 6,407 sold Friday night. So 300 or so didn't turn up?

There were two season ticket holders in front of us who didn't turn up.
Those accustomed to privilege may feel that equality is oppression.

Dunno mate, it does need sorting and we need a segregation plan for the North and a new Bishop St.

Who cares how many turned up?

The players didn’t turn up to play. It was windy against us in the first half but we had it in our favour in the second half.

Not good enough, dress it up how you like but Flitcroft is on the verge of throwing our dreams away.

Dave - sort it out. Win the first and second ball, pass the chuffing thing short, stop banging it long and get back to playing it how we know we can.
