Red Army 75 Posted March 11, 2017 Report Share Posted March 11, 2017 I have received a letter about next season. I'm in the Atyeo. Atyeo season ticket holders will be moved to s25-s27 of south stand. Relaxed option of standing. Price the same as the rest of the stand. Which is correct. Season tickets will go on sale march 20th. Full details released next 7 days. Atyeo away fans only .

Phileas Fogg Posted March 11, 2017 Report Share Posted March 11, 2017 Seems a good idea. Can anyone post a picture of that section? I assume it's the corner Also, could we rename the thread? I assumed it was about that LJ letter and I think lots will be interested in this Atyeo news rather than another LJ thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChippenhamRed Posted March 11, 2017 Report Share Posted March 11, 2017 If this means the whole Atyeo will be given to away fans, and no potential faffing about required for cup games, then common sense has finally prevailed. It should also mean the atmosphere is improved with home condensed into three stands and our most vocal element at the heart of it. All good news in my opinion. I just hope we're in the right division to see the true benefit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobBobSuperBob Posted March 11, 2017 Report Share Posted March 11, 2017 If we continue our plummet to L1 the Atyeo is going to be underused next season then ! Except when the SAGs come to see what a proper stadium looks like Will be glad to see our most vocal support in the SS tho - shame it's stuck in a corner tho 7 minutes ago, Phileas Fogg said: Seems a good idea.

ChippenhamRed Posted March 11, 2017 Report Share Posted March 11, 2017 What does this mean for people who say Bristol Sport doesn't want these sort of fans? A relaxed attitude to standing suggests to me they are doing what they can to accommodate them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it's good news and progress but given their track record I'm naturally a bit cynical, even with good news. Really hoping this is a good arrangement for all parties. Crucially; room for that section to grow and expand if needs be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phileas Fogg Posted March 11, 2017 Report Share Posted March 11, 2017 @ChippenhamRed if I was to be extra cynical, I'd say it's a downgrade from initial proposals before its completion for 'singers' to occupy central blocks of the SS - obviously they can't make that happen now - however this is the best solution they've had since the EE. Hoping for a much better atmosphere at AG that gets the whole ground going.. just a shame if it's in league 1.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin Ian M Posted March 11, 2017 Admin Report Share Posted March 11, 2017 I'm glad the singers will be in the SS now. The sound when we have sung travels round the horseshoe well and I'm looking forward to them getting the rest of the ground going more in future Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pongo88 Posted March 11, 2017 Report Share Posted March 11, 2017 This is the best position for a relaxed attitude to standing section as it won't block the view of those sitting. I hope the minority who want to stand but, can't fit into this section, don't spoil things by trying to stand in the adjoining block. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanatopia Posted March 11, 2017 Report Share Posted March 11, 2017 Unless of course it is because they have a cunning plan on demolishing the Atyeo while we re-group in the 3rd Division. Arhhhh yesssss.. The Project. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristol Rob Posted March 11, 2017 Report Share Posted March 11, 2017 So has the rake of the stand changed? I'm sure before you were forced in to the Atyeo the SS wasn't suitable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still going with the "they didn't want us pesky hooligans near the what was then directors area" theory though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve_C Posted March 11, 2017 Report Share Posted March 11, 2017 I hope that this means that the "Eastenders" have a permanent home which just happens to be pretty near the East. Families are moving to upper Lansdown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tears in rain Posted March 11, 2017 Report Share Posted March 11, 2017 With the size of the ground the Atyeo shouldn't be needed for home fans. Plenty of space in lansdown stand to utilise, pretty sure this is best for all parties really. Similar set up to Charlton Athletic as well with the horseshoe being home fans and the isolated stand being for away fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
