imo No as i dont want the sun in my eyes and i enjoy sitting in my current seat in the KOP. if i was to be down the other end it's in the away section so where will i be re-positioned? will i even get a seat in the new KOP? also we create a good enough atmosphere in the current KOP we dont need away fans sat right next to us to hurl abuse at.

have to agree with that, it's the same for me plus IMO the only thing that ruins the atmosphere is the football it was great for most of the game yesterday and during the promotion season the atmosphere was amazing for most matches as soon as we start to win the on a regular basis the atmosphere will improve

this proves its not only me who will be disturbed (obviously!) its the whole of F1, F2, G1 and G2 who will have to move elsewhere. keep it how it is imo. the atmosphere was fantastic yesterday, almost as good as the spurs and sheffield united games at home. if we can keep this kind of football and results going theres no reason as to next season we cant be well up there and challenging. maybe i am being to optimistic though!

Yes but the important thing is, did you actually vote the way you wanted when the club did that survey a few weeks ago?? If not, you can't complain at the outcome!!!

I personally voted NO, as I like the people I sit round (a nice lack of psychopaths!!) and we get on really well!!

I sometimes go with my nephew in the north stand, and he doesnt like what the away fans sing n chant. saturday was ok cos wolves fans were amazingly quiet. some of them were arrested, and my nephew gets scared when the coppers are dragging them away, then he said, can we sit over there (pointing to the opposite corner), i dont like it here. his sth is near the away end, but we dont sit there, we sit on the other side. he wouldnt go if it was full and had to sit there.

I dont know how they can call it a family stand, so close to abusive language. more family`s would come if it was the south stand.

I was sitting in L1 yesterday and you cant hear the kop from there, i dont know if this was because the kop werent singing, but if they were it sounds shit from where the away fans sit.

So i think swapping the kop would be a good idea and will make for a better atmosphere.

Ye i know what you mean. It sounds loud in the kop, but it isnt when you sit in l1. 10 people singing sounds loud if your in the middle of it but a few blocks away you cant hear it. I sit in F2 and i cant hear all this noise from e1 that everyone talks about.

I voted yes, we dont need to hurl abuse at away fans, itll just create a bit of a better atmosphere with both sets of fans going at it :rolleyes:

And the sun? What sun?? there aint no sun in leicester! <_<

Lets do the switch :thumbup:

Switch the away fans. The Kop has always been the south stand, so why should it be changed to be the north stand now. Also, surely moving 1/2 blocks of away fans will be less fuss than shifting 4/5 blocks of home fans, some of which may not wan't to move, and lets face it, the away fans will most probably know no different.

I agree in principal, the only problem with that is all the 'naughty rooms' are near that corner hence our morons get dragged over there sometimes... The whole area has been designed with fan segregation in mind. Basically it is a poor oversight by the architect/club during the planning phase!!

Yeah. We've been sitting in C2 this season and it's usually pretty empty in there. You could put the away fans in there and frustrate far less people than if moving the entire kop. That said, then it becomes far more obvious what the club is doing - so they'd probably be shy to do so. :D

Hmm... I think chanting should be encouraged everywhere in the ground, I was sitting in the West Stand last season and could not stand being the only one chanting my head off, I could hear my voice echo for Christ sake! So I switched to the Kop and its pretty good now :)

Agreed, we want everyone to hear us in the kop, because we do make quite a bit of noise despite what the East stander's think. we also want the team and the away fans to hear us, because atm most away fans leave thinking,

christ they've got sh*t supporters, just that few at the back (L1), and harldy anyone turns up.

If anyone says no, then i cant understand, if you get on so well with the others sitting near you, im sure that you can arrange to buy season ticket's near each other!!!!! <_<

i would love for them to be swapped, it would create a much better atmosphere

Like at derby they have singing suporters on either sides of the away fans creating a much better atmosphere, although we were louder :D:D:D

SWAP IT !!! SWAP IT!!! :devil:

now you've got your head screwed on. You share the same perspective as me. L1 all the way with the kop the otherside.

i want the KOP to stay were it is, i like it there! tbh i dont care about being near away fans! aslong as the whole ground makes noise then i dont see why it should matter were we sit! and people in L1 who say they cant here the KOP, does it really matter? we know we are singing loudly so it doesnt mater!! :thumbup:

I sit in the kop and don't want it moved. As where would my seat be? as i sit in f1. I thought the kop was loud for 80 mins of the match yesterday. I also thought that wolves were very quiet all game, but in the paper(sunday mirror) it said they were chanting, hoddle for england, and hoddle for leicester. Think they were being sarcastic towards their manager.......lol.....shows how much we frustrated them.............
