    I’m going to get lynched for it. :eek:
    Not saying it’s a good idea, but Here goes...
    Make the North Stand at Oakwell the home end & Ponty for away fans. Larger capacity for us in the premier league. & Ponty goal gets so dark on sunny days in shadow, whereas North is bathed in sunshine all aft.
    Discuss, if not totally disgusted. o_O

    Ooh, the Grove Street car park would resemble a battle ground after the match. Segregation a major issue there

    Seeing as it's usually a police decision what happens regarding match days it would be impossible. Thousands of fans criss-crossing each other. No that would never work.

    I mean, look at all the mayhem it caused at half time years ago when we all used to change ends at half times. There was a battleground every time on that path through the Paddock, and the area between the back of terracing and the peeing wall.o_O

    Which bit of ‘controversial’ didn’t anyone understand?
    As much as I love pigeons, I’m clearly the cat.!! :)

    the day you roll up to Oakwell in the pink leotard, I might reciprocate.x
    There’s a charity project, right there. & you know what a demon I am for fundraising.
    To be discussed.

    I’m busy fishing here, if you don’t mind. Just waiting for Supertyke to compose his thesis on the whole idea. Expected middle of next week..

    Can the North stand no longer be split? That was the original idea of it, split down the middle with nowhere the two sets of supporters can meet. Just do that. Half a stand for the away fans and an extra few thousand home tickets...
