    I reckon a good amount of our fans wouldn't notice the difference.

    I think they should play more My Bloody Valentine and Pavement.

    Better signage for the toilets probably.

    My Boycott (until we won) ended so I did buy a beer there, I did also manage to find the toilets as well, which I understand was difficult for some!

    I think personally its likely to be same date, if we play Sunday in the FA Cup it means Forest's fixture will have to move to Wednesday which is the same day as Notts County play MK Dons, which will therefore have to be moved again, I can't see them doing that personally.

    The palace escort was fine when it happened with it half finish earlier in the season.

    Agree they have, just seems a bit of a weird corporate Us v Them thing from them, have always hated this nonsense at Music Festivals, and I think it makes the experience worse, because people who actually bring atmosphere will be elsewhere. I think its trying to hard to manufacture atmosphere...

    For me personally, it doesn't bother me with a 10% discount, club level does annoy me a bit, because IMO, they've done nothing to earn that reward from the club other than own a piece of plastic. But ultimately after thinking about it over the weekend I do not really care that much!

    Completely different IMO, it doesn't exclude you from certain areas, its just a discount on something everyone else is entitled to.

    Yeah it was more of a back of a fag packet calculation, but either way, 2 does seem significant.

    Yes but based on this season, there is 1 scheduled evening winter midweek home league match (I'm not counting Friday matches).

    [Albion] New fan zone - "The Terrace" [Opening 29/03/25 currently]

    Yes so that would be 3 trains, combined with the concourse, either way reducing the number of the first 3 loads of people on trains is significant, what of course is the mitigating factor is that will a fanzone encourage people to stay behind? Can I see people staying behind still if they...

    But its not a 3 car, every 20 minute service, its every 10 minutes with 4 carriage services, on midweeks, that is almost double. Lets get those facts right first.

    I think it shows how few people use the train relatively as to clear an entire 30k of people using only trains (based on the 367 capacity of a 377/4 train) you would need 84 units, so half that as you can run 2 units per train, you have 42 train services. That's never going to be possible. So...

    500 less fans in that queue is not just a drop in the ocean though :lolol: , I've just explained how it is in fact very significant.

    So you are saying that if 1000 people choose to stay behind it won't make a dent, when its alleviating a whole 3 trains worth of capacity. I know it isn't great, but that is a significant dent, that would clear a whole worth of Brighton bound trains for half an hour on midweek. That for me is...

    Around 320 crush loaded (based off a class 377/3), so if the Fanzone is in use at Full Capacity indoors, that 3 services where people will not fill up those trains, if the capacity of 2/3000 is used thats a potential 9 3/4 car services that will be alleviated. Yes it doesn't solve all the...
