Can we make improvements to the away end to enhance the away fan experience?

what years was this?

Early to mid-70s, maybe even before then. The days of Binney and Banks when boiled burgers, bovril and Brut helped mask the smell of stale pi$$ and vomitories from beyond the old railway sleepers.

Cosway wore his big, bass drum on the chest like in a marching band, and led the Cowshed choir to his beat.

I started going in 75 and honestly dont remember a drum, not saying there wasnt one or he may have hung up his bass drum by then ?
Boiled burgers, bovril and Brut...i can almost smell it!

I’ve heard lots of positive feedback from away supporters who have stood in the St James Rd end. One of the main points is the choice to stand on a designated terrace, a rarity these days, plus the good acoustics from the low roof.

I stood in there for the barrow game. Good little stand. Why not move the away to the main stand corner and half the standing part as can segregate, and have half the standing as city season tickets, less likely to have any security issues as they'll lose an entire season of games if their an idiot

Away fans could still be idiots though.

You'd also loose a big chunk of space in the middle of it as a cordon sanitaire.

Barnet announce plans to end 'ten-year exile' and build new stadium

The stadium would hold between 6,000 and 8,000 fans

Wonder if they'll have any second-hand stands for sale?

Chairman sounds like he has very deep pockets. I assume they don't own the Hive otherwise moving is a huge additional cost to bear

Haven't they looked at this before but had the nimbies from Hell which is why they went to Harrow?
