Would it be worth petitioning the club (well Paul Barber or even Tony B) to request that if they do manage to install a new deck of seats over the NS that this be made available to regular fans and not be another hospitality zone? The 1901 Club is already huge, plus the other hospitality areas. What the club needs is 1,000 extra voices in the NS to lift the atmosphere, which in turn lifts the players.

With that tiny shelf, for better or worse, it will be expensive hospitality seats.

Never going to happen I’m afraid.

I expect there are a number of current 1901 dwellers who would welcome a move back to the North though - their roots etc - which would open up space in the West where I bet they look to enhance the experience and drive sharp price increases whenever they next can.

IT's all part and parcel of the need to obtain self sustaining revenue goals.

I’d be tempted to move upstairs from the NS. Price permitting.

A comfy place pre match and at HT, different food options.

As a 1901er who still has a ST in the North, I would love to move my tickets to the North Shelf. The club could market it as a 1901 tier with atmosphere.
Do you go in twice?

Hahahaha

As if the club will listen.

They've already got a proven example of roof over fans making the atmosphere in the North shitter.

Now they are doing the same with a f***ing corporate box. Imagine that at the Kop end, or Elland Road even.

All about the money. Same as it ever was.

Still, something something fanzone

So would this mean we’ll be the BIGGEST club in South East England?

No. Whatever they are doing will already be decided.

No. It’s a ridiculous situation where if I give up the ST in the North I lose all the loyalty points gained since the start of the system, as the club won’t let me transfer them to the 1901 ST. So I have to keep hold of it and put it on the ticket exchange every week!

On Saturday I noticed all the SW corner branding had been removed:

Admittedly it was starting to get quite faded but was it in advance of the works or just because away fans would be sitting f there for the cup game?
