We’ve got no money to spend and are having to deal with Ashton and Johnson’s profligate spending. What did you expect this season?

Ok then ??

Not seen the Books then?

Well **** me sideways……

It has to be possible for the away fans and home fans to be in the same stand. I can think of many teams who take this approach - Wolves have lower tier for away fans and upper tier for home fans. Forest the same. Newcastle, Swansea, Spurs, all have home and away fans in the same stands divided by tiers. And I think your rationale for doing it ie getting our younger fans closer to the pitch and more engaged whilst moving the away fans away from the goal is the most positive one there is. Would also actually move away fans nearer the South Stand which would naturally improve the atmosphere as well as we would at least be able to engage. Club really need to think about this I think - it’s ok wanting to just appeal to a certain demographic who they think do not want any edge at all, but whenever I’ve taken non fans it’s the atmosphere that always hooks people in. Lose that atmosphere and you lose a massive reason for going - whatever social strata you are!

You can use the yesterday’s Swansea Cardiff game as an example with both sets of fans practically on top of each other. If they can do it surely anyone can and no trouble reported as far as I can see.

I’d say the atmosphere was 10 times as good when we had the old Williams and East End either side of the away fans. Would depend who we were playing still but was just so much better on the whole. Obviously there is no going back but like @Red Army 75said if they can do it at Swansea v Cardiff then surely it’s not impossible to at least get some home fans in the Atyeo if not elsewhere.

100%. Gave up that argument long ago though unfortunately. For reasons unbeknownst to anyone they have to stay at full flare at AG when even Wembley doesn’t have their on during the game.

Absolutely shocking statistics. I cannot believe that people stick up for him so strongly. He’s a symptom of our performances over the last few years - weak. Hopefully someone will come in for him in January, but cannot see who would. Maybe over the bridge at Cardiff or Swansea as they seem to like having our ex players.

Triggered? About you? Don’t delude yourself ‘robin’. Just replying to your ‘opinionated’ view as it’s bullshit. As per….

Eh?!

Would you rather we had a lower home average? Bizarre argument.

Wtf are you on about? Seriously you make no sense at all

You don’t half talk a load of shite. No one on here is claiming any of the items you have listed in your post. Your post is verging on the hysterical (not in a funny way to be clear). Why do you feel the need to make things up? Would it not be more helpful to people on both sides to simply just engage in a grown up discussion as opposed to spouting your utter nonsense?

Not going to say your thinking is wrong at all. But I think that the events of the last 5 years have divided this country for at least a generation and that division is seen most keenly across all mediums of social media, including this forum. The division is here to stay for the foreseeable and imho will only get worse in the short to medium term as it seems to be affecting most facets of everyday life.

Amici Bar in Nottingham during the Calderwood reign there. Forest thugs randomly attacking our fans (‘scarfers’ not anyone looking for trouble in the slightest) so was not unhappy to see a large contingent of our chaps coming back towards the pub to even out proceedings once theyd obviously got wind of what was happening.

Hilarious some of the comments on this thread. He had a rant. It’s definitely wrong but it’s not anything too dissimilar that we’ve seen from the likes of Warnock etc over the years. LL has given years of service to Manor Farm and non league football in general. He’s admitted he’s made a big mistake and will rightly face punishment but calls for him to face 10 year or even life time bans are frankly truly ridiculous.

Why may I ask?

First half last week, second half this. Seems the pattern of not being able to put a consistent 80 min performance together has continued on from last season. Was hoping that would improve this year but still very much a work in progress. Semi a massive loss as well.

Not much of a sledger is he!

It was an embarrassing moment for sure but can’t see it causing a mass loss of respect for Pat in the long run. We played well last week. Think we’ve just been found out a bit in general and we’re nowhere near firing atm.

Tyson with all the expletives ?

Again, I’ve not condoned any violence whatsoever, I have simply answered your point about the term ‘CSF’ being heard. It was a general comment to your point which you have taken way too far. You’re fighting the wrong person.

Most definitely. My point was only that it’s still chanted whenever there is any hint of trouble. No doubt that it’s not followed through like it used to be!
