Me and my mate have chosen our seats and ordered our season tickets in the south stand next season. We have sat in the FML for about 5 years after moving from the kilner cos it was cheaper and we thought £200 was all league 1 football was worth. Since NSL have moved in the atmosphere has been brilliant and it's been an easy decision for us both to spend a bit more and carry on bouncing around in the south stand for another season at least, we really should push on and make it a party atmosphere for the remaining time we're in NSL. There is a great mix of ages and the young uns are learning songs from the old uns. There has been a mutual respect between us and the stewards too which I really hope continues in the south stand. I have enjoyed the lack of so called banter between us and the away fans too and hope we can concentrate on Town songs and face the pitch rather than looking left to the away fans. I hope we can continue handing flags out- we could certainly be much more organised in that department although Cole, Ben and Stu do a great job. Perhaps we could keep the flags in a wheelie bin in the container and push them round to the south stand before the game. Some of us need to get there earlier,meet up and have a plan for each game next season. No doubt the banners will lay on the void between us and the away fans but we could also try to somehow fill the corner in with a few banners. I never actually wanted the south stand as I like roughing it in the cheap seats but I've got carried along of optimism that runs through everything NSL have done. Onwards and upwards! Up The Town!

The wheelie bin is a fantastic idea JH!! I have so many ideas, and I'm itching for next season to see if they'll actually be possible to do and if the South Stand will work. I can't wait!

Could do with the wheelie bin now actually, maybe the club could provide one? Yes I'm not short of ideas too for next season. One is for you to walk from the south stand to the kilner on a high wire across the corner and back with no safety net while holding a flag in one hand, a flare in the other wearing your pink sunglasses and starting a song to unite the kilner and NSL and everybody joining in. What dya think? Have a think about it!

Already spoke with the club about a wheelie bin and a rope/wire on the back of the stand.

If the wire goes all the way along the back of our section, could have a long banner saying 'THE COWSHED' or something to do with Town like that, you can get those rolls of fabric from US. That would look class, very similar to the european ultras.

Problem is there's advertising all over our stadium. Watched Man U Monday on tv and cos on those horrible electronic advertising boards and no other advertising it means loads of space to hang banners everywhere else. Nowt we can do bout that is there?

Think now we've got the South Stand (view by many as what should have been the new Cowshed) we should use the word itself and poss some Cowshed imaginary. Also agree with the point above: please please please don't let it turn into a situation where we're just singing to away fans, part of the appeal of the NSL was that we abandoned that shit.

I know. I Also think some big german ultra style flags would look amazing dotted around the section.

True. There's room for banners everywhere and I'm gonna be making plenty over summer. But I think it would be nice to have one over the hoardings like palace etc. can be seen easier on photos and stuff them.

Maybe we could make the NSL banner 'stand' like Aberdeen used to. I'll try find a picture

I was thinking at the bottom of Blcok 2, but all depends on whether it will be unreserved or not. We need to keep the NSL core!

Not a Roy Wood thread then?
Although watching flowers in the rain would be quite apt for some recent performances.

Probably best to have singers at the back, although I'm hoping everyone will sing

Would rather we congregated at the front, people behind can see us then so more incentive to join in

I think the old school singers definitely should be at the back for the best noise and view, but the core we've been getting recently of 'ultras' in the NSL needs to be leading from down at the front in my opinion.
