I would have thought the best solution would be to give the away fans an entire slice of the North East corner, much like the setup they currently have in the south west corner. It keeps most away supporters back with a few in front in the lower tier to prevent those above throwing stuff down.Looks like the away fans are in north lower? Thought they would have been tucked away in the top 3rd tier.
So it's not just the local residents they are looking to price out then

Are the prices hugely up on what they currently are? Or what they'd have to raise them to in 3 years time if we had no new stadium?
I think they'd be missing a trick by not offering the four corners at a discounted rate for 1886 members aged 14-24 TBH
I'm not sure what they are at the moment, but these look like the prices a few or my Arsenal supporting mates pay for what are pretty rubbish seats.
Looking at those prices, I won't be able to afford it and isuspect others who can't afford a ST now won't be getting one in the new stadium. imo the south stand should be the cheapest, have concessions for 16-24 yr olds to allow for atmosphere and, more importantly, develop the support for the future. If the club prices out the youngsters then it won't have an atmosphere in the future!! Also, maybe the 1882 mob could consult with the club about having some of membership scheme to ensure the fans that like to do all the singing get the seats in the south stand.
Agree completely. And also the club also need to be careful I feel, to avoid having the largest and quietest kop in the world. Having the away fans where they are currently works really to stir up the support. If the club don't do anything to encourage both younger and more vocal supporters to the south stand, they may find them all going north.
Well I pay £1205 west upper block 7, you can probably add 20-25% to those prices by the time the stadium is builtI'm not sure what they are at the moment, but these look like the prices a few or my Arsenal supporting mates pay for what are pretty rubbish seats.
