It might im;prove the atmosphere. That's the corner where Lions Club members usually sit right?
Sounds like the club have approached this sensibly with a small test area. Would be perfect for the Brigada guys.

Well they weren't listening initially as was stated in their reply for one of the early SCG. Perhaps something has twisted their arm. Only a good thing of course, just think it has more to do with £ TBH.

Only a good thing of course, just think it has more to do with £ TBH.The SPL development has certainly re-opened the debate and technology continues to evolve. You can't complain when they don't listen to an argument then say it's only about getting more money from us when they do.
I know people who never had the chance to stand up to watch a game at VP who would start going again for the novelty factor alone initially. Who knows, if that led to a better atmosphere, cheaper tickets, and a better match day experience, it could spiral into something really good.

I doubt that the Lower Holte could every be converted as it is designed for its current capacity and at times the concourse area struggles with that. They will need to incorporate it into a new stand
