I don't think developing the ground the way I describe would reduce capacity (it would possibly increase it) - more specifically it would both look great, serve current supporters well and enhance the match day (viewing) experience which in turn generates more interest and attracts new fans. GGL looked amazing when it was packed to the rafters that night on 20/2/17 but most of the time our good attendances aren't able to generate their noise and atmosphere potential.

On a completely different scale I know, but I think West Ham supporters are concerned that their stadium isn't football enough at present.

I occasionally stand over the Collingwood Road side of the ground, but the pitch seems so far away, I prefer to be nearer the action. Also although there is some cover most of the noise disappears into the open air. A more enclosed terracing would magnify the sound. That’s why behind the goals and the few noisy clapper brigade in the main stand are heard.

Shoutbox

scorpioeyes: I predicted a relegation struggle with a totally inexperienced manager. Hope I am wrong, but it doesn't look like it. MG is out of his depth,that's obvious. Sept 3, 2019 22:59:54 GMT

ggl: So are we now saying we have a manager who is not in favour of bringing in loan players and if the board decided to part company with him they cannot afford to do so ? Oct 23, 2019 8:21:42 GMT

historyboy: So sorry to hear about the passing of Eddie Clack. I Remember him well. Oct 24, 2019 17:13:12 GMT

historyboy: Sad to hear of the passing of Eddie Cack, I remember him well. I think that the said photograph publishsed by the club, of him sitting next to Dave Hermitage, isn't him at all; I think the picture shows Micky Goodall. Compare other pictures of both. Oct 24, 2019 17:27:34 GMT

scorpioeyes: It certainly would be 'convenient' for Dover to have the season washed out. if they fail to turn up tomorrow,we should be awarded the game and 3-0 to our goal difference.Why should we be inconvenienced by any attempts to rearrange the game? Feb 15, 2021 10:45:15 GMT

Burtie: Hello chaps. Is there any intelligence about the crowd situation for the game vs Hartlepool on 22 May? Does the club have a position on supporters? Apr 24, 2021 17:02:01 GMT

scorpioeyes: I think these odds are quite amazing. If I was a neutral looking at the recent form and upcoming fixtures,I'd make hartlepool or perhaps Torquay as fave for the title. To have 'pool at 9s and us as evens is bizarre. Apr 30, 2021 17:21:02 GMT

scorpioeyes: yes,'arrogant' is the right word. No objectivity allowed! May 8, 2021 12:10:13 GMT

brownyellow60: Congratulations lads on superb season on winning league.Got a bit rocky recently but stuck to it and got over the winning line.Cant wait to new season.Wow what a feeling Sutton in football league May 23, 2021 15:41:30 GMT

valiant: Hello again! Can you tell me where the away seating is please? I thought it was behind the goal next to the away terrace but looking at the film on Quest I can't see it! Thanks. Oct 5, 2021 11:00:22 GMT

pinewalker: There is a temporary stand at 45 degrees to the pitch behind the NE corner flag, and there is more away seating at the east end of the main stand both accessed via the away turnstiles. Oct 5, 2021 14:33:57 GMT

neil: My father used to take to watch Queens Park Rangers back in the late 60's (I recall he knew one of the Directors at the club). I still have many programmes from that time through the 70's. Happy Days ! Nov 22, 2021 9:42:42 GMT

davef: Due to the levels of demand the rest of Level 1, blocks 112 round to 122 for all categories have now been opened up for sale. Mar 17, 2022 11:37:17 GMT

nikred: I am wondering if there is a site where all the results of the team since its inception can be found? Apr 21, 2023 5:06:57 GMT

davef: nikred: No, but it is something we may do eventually Aug 18, 2023 21:15:20 GMT

davef: And for those that don't:- Aug 22, 2023 14:17:39 GMT

holmesdale96: Sorry to hear of Danny's death, a real loss. I saw him regularly during the 90's at his home in Streatham, always charged the same small fee for years, an absolute gentleman with his dear wife Rose. RIP Danny Sept 13, 2023 21:01:09 GMT

scorpioeyes: So we have a situation where people from both sides of any argument can say they are 'uncomfortable' in the presence of the opposing view. Who is to say which side is correct or justified? Sept 2, 2024 16:49:19 GMT
