if im being totally honest facebook Groups are bloody pointless for this sort of thing.
If you are serious you need to make one of those Online Petition Things, however i think its on a goverment website, and not sure if you can only do it for goverment things

For the record, Alan Bexon/Mark Arthur have both confirmed to me in the past that this can never happen. The official line is that if they could have done it, they'd have done it years ago.

Have fun changing the world from your desk, though.

keep it as it is lets have visitors paying top dollar , worry about that when we can fill the rest of the ground with our supporters

1967 Midweek game v Coventry City 44,951 (95% full)

I dont think we will ever see a midweek attendance like that again no matter what stands we have

They say it can never happen.

Funny that, but didn't away fans always used to be housed a the very small 2 blocks at the bottom corner of the BC, just like some wolves fans were the other day?

We've even seen it recently where away fans are right in the lower corner of the Bridgeford, and its segregated so Forest fans get the rest so it blatantly can be done. Why they don't do it i've no idea especially when away supporters don't bring many fans.

I have sat in the Lower Bridgeford a few times when they have opened it to Forest fans. It's worth a shot, at least we will know the official line

Where do you sit the away fans then?

I personally think that there isn't much point in moving things around. I don't see why we would want to sit there and then where would sit the away fans. It would cause complaints from all the people being forced to move because of the change in where away fans sit. It would be the last thing the club want.

Simple
We want it back becuase the sound from there amplies and we could really get behind the team.
Its simple you state cleary why and give them ( the fans in bc lower ) first choice on seats to move into.

So we ban away fans from the ground?
Then nobody will let us go to their ground.
I am against this in every way.
I like away fans. They provide entertainment during the games when we are being boring.

Have we ever had it? I don't remember away fans sitting anywhere else.

Yes we have. Away fans used to sit on the two small blocks at the front of the Brian Clough. Back in the day when the Bridgeford was a big open air terrace Forest fans definitly stood there.

And even now sometimes the segregation works out so that fans are in Capital One Corner Lower if you like, leaving the rest for Forest but for some inexplicable reason this isnt the norm. All that talk about policing etc is clearly horseshit because we sometimes do it, and have done it in the past.

.

Only when they didn't bring many, and i don't think you can use the time before the stand was built as comparison, as the whole structure of the ground was different. You will be asking to be able to walk all round the ground next (as we used to be able to)

Im all for it, but it CAN NOT and WILL NOT happen.

Something to do with getting away fans out of the ground, if I recall correctly. As things stand away coaches can wait outside, and pick up away fans without them having any contact with Forest fans, for example, if any trouble was brewing.

If you put them in the Clough lower, they would have to walk through home supporters to leave, and if we are playing, for example D*rby, it's just not an option.

Sorry to piss on the fire, id love to see this happen, but it never will.
