When I was on the Gates Committee I suggested we could drill two or three sets of holes in the two stands which would be slots to take a moveable barrier between the home and away supporters. I was thinking at the time about offering part of Block A or more of Block L to the away fans of big clubs, but the reverse situation now applies...All seems very sensible. The other area that could be looked at is segregation; as far as I'm aware there have been no issues in the ground between home and away fans this season so there is an argument that fewer seats need to be lost to keeping fans apart.
This would give flexibility yet maintain separation, with the minumum number of seats lost - perhaps two or three columns rather than 8 or 10. There would probably be some loss of sight lines but if sheets of armoured galss or plexiglass were slotted into the barriers this could be minimised. No idea of the cost as this was not taken up, but maybe worth looking into.
