@mick-george I'll ask the Club for specifics. I think there are more in the South as there are more areas to 'police'.

Silver, and Gold sections, the boxes, and the regular seating. Also 2 entrances (turnstiles) SW & SE, whereas the North stand just has the turnstiles at the middle of Sinclair Ave in use.

Not having a go, Mick, but if not having a row of seats each is stopping you attending games, then you don't really want to go. I take a picture of the North Stand at kick off time, and send it over to @mikeparsons, and believe me it's more sparsely populated than you think. Just imagine if it was a full house? How would we all cope?

But I will ask the question asap, and get back to you.

Forget the question who are you to decide if people should attend sums up everything .

@prisoner It's not for me to decide who attends, or for what ever reason they choose not to. The Club will have done a reccy on how many turnstile clicks, and how many blocks they need to open (cost effective). For every exit from the stand to the concourse needs to be 'manned' by a steward, on safety grounds, as our beloved Council don't believe 99% of spectators have common sense. The cost of this stewarding is down to the Club, not the Council. In an Ideal world the whole North Stand would be open, & both snack bars would be open etc. Nothing would please the Club & Allan Coleman to have to open all the blocks in the North & South stands. The reality is our capacity for IMG is 7000, we are averaging about 2500.

 

I will still ask the question.
