Of course it is. That was one of the reasons for many suggesting that the home support be relocated to the Air Wair end. ;)

Let's have a poll.

I'll get my coat! :oops:

All you'll get is blah blah blah, I'm not moving. I want to stand. I've been standing on that spot since 1969 etc etc. :lol:

I know few agree but this! Atmosphere would be much better and everyone would still have their own spots. At what point do you think the Club would think about reopening the Airwair for home fans?

When KC sees that there's a financial gain by doing so. ;)

Surely if all our fans went in the Airwair... You could have the so-called 'North Stand Community' on one side - the singers in the middle and the families/South Stand on the right! Would be quality and would reduce costs as surely one stand is easier to run than 3?!

That would never happen since a large section of the seated fans like to watch the match at the side, either side of the halfway line.

Can you imagine the upset in the North and South stands? Blimey, there was almost a mutiny when some fans had to relocate from the North stand to the South stand for the Luton match. :oops:

I don't like the idea of all our fans in the Airwair.

For games against small clubs, we'd have well over half the stadium looking completely empty.
For games against the likes of Luton, they'd probably outnumber us 3 stands to one!

Having only one stand open would be stupid but surely if home fans had the Airwair the Club could sell beer in the concourse again and make a load pre-match/half time?

I wasn't being proper serious - I know it wouldn't happen!
