Shame it's so small, but yes, that is lovely. I think we'll be getting in the ground a good 30 minutes before kick-off to get behind the goal and at the back. Sod being at the front!

That is one big squeeze! It's going to be a bit like Torquay a few years back...but with less space.

It won't be like Torquay. There's no wall for TROLI to smash his head on.

Good price. I'll take that. 1600 is more than what Stoke got.

It is. It's a small amount of seating and all of behind the goal. Should make for a cracking atmosphere.

The above picture is the home end, although your end (opposite) is a mirror image just about.

Where that picture shows open terracing, that is now a "temporary" stand. You'll have a block of 200 seats in it next to your away terracing.

I'm glad they've kept prices as per league games, we may break the attandance record. (set when we played pompey in the league in september)

Do you think you'll sell your allocation?

Should do. Got any pics of the away seating? Sounds like Football Grounds Guide needs an update, or I've misunderstood the away terrace isn't as it was below.



Away fans are primarily housed in the KR-L Stand at one end of the ground. This mostly covered terrace can accommodate up to 1,600 fans. A small number of seats are also available to away supporters in the West Stand. The segregation of the terrace can be adjusted depending on the size of the away following. For example clubs will a small following will be given only the North West corner up to the corner flag, whilst the largest will be allocated that corner plus the whole of that end. The facilities at the stadium are pretty good and it is normally a relaxed and enjoyable day out.

The above picture shows the KR-L stand (confusingly the away terracing) and the EAST stand (our state of the art ex-golf open stand) where away fans get to sit. Hope that eases the confusion.

My guess is will be sold out on/by Saturday 15th. Anyone trying to get a ticket after that has little or no chance.

Terracing, FA Cup, day out, cheap-ish tickets, new ground. Need I go on.
