So it was hostile before they came then?

Having read his other posts I fear he is.

It's in the name.

DannyBoy11 used to post bollocks but then he got all growed up and became a moderator.

Although I wonder is 95 is Danny the Fox 95's reall age, in which case it's only going to roll downhill fast until senility helps him forget where he left the computer.

This is how it should be at times, especially against teams like Doncaster Rovers. I understand massive rivalries like Birmingham v Villa, West Brom v Wolves, Arsenal v Spurs etc and it wil never happen in those games, but when there is nothing between I'm up for the idea.

I know they did it at The City Ground and there was no trouble. I suppose there will always be some people trying to cause something though, but if we give it a try what can go wrong? :ph34r:

Are you sure some nutter can't just get one?

Not sure i'd want to be sat next to some 7 foot pisshead when i'm drinking my bovril on saturday.

In all fairness, said "nutter" could just as easily buy a ticket in any part of our ground. Doncaster fans could stand in L and K if they wanted to cause trouble. Nobody (hopefully) is stupid enough to try and cause trouble in what has been repeatedly called a "family area".

My thoughts on this is it's a bit pointless, can't really understand it but I doubt anyone will even notice 248 family people sat in the middle of the family stand.

Couple of points...

1) The corporate areas already allow mixed fans.

2) The club is spending money on making the family stand more accessible to families; allowing entry to the Megastore during the game, for example. I know some of you can't see it, but there are families out there who don't want to stand and sing, especially those with young kids. The ticket offer on Saturday applies only to families, so surely it would be better for the rest of us if the families congregated in their face-painted, sanitised little part of the ground, whilst the rest of us get on with supporting our teams without having a disgruntled parent giving us the evils for daring to say a naughty word?

Thanks for linking the blog, davieG; I didn't know you were a fan!

No I'm saying with these kind of ideas like mixed fan zones then it is making it pathetic.

I'm for one not getting a season ticket next season

Really! you might just have convinced me get one after all then :P

Not just families. I don't like to stand and sing. It just isn't my way. I don't have any problem with people watching them game in any way they like and I do get a little annoyed by prats behind me singing about how I (and others, of course) am not a real fan because I don't show my support in the same way that they do.

Precisely. That's a different argument though, but I agree with the point you're making. I assume you don't want to buy a new shirt when there's a stoppage for some treatment ;)

Why the sad look?

I don't get it.

Some of you don't want families at the game, but the club tries to keep families together in one area, and you're against it?

If you don't want something like this happening, then get your arses into the Family Stand so there's nowhere to put the opposition fans.

It's not as if the club is getting rid of segregation full stop. They're just giving the lowest risk group another option.
