fans make atmosphere, if the fans stand around with their hands in their pockets saying" the atmosphere is not like it used to be" then it will be, but if fans treat it the same and make a noise and create an atmosphere then, it will be fine.

obviously I wasn't there yesterday and I don't know if it rained during the game so does any one think there is a threat of getting wet due to that Roof ?

There’s a very real threat of getting wet, when standing outside in the rain, without a roof over your head.

It all depends upon whether the architects have built something in the stand to direct/amplify the 'noise' from the stand. People need to remember the south stand was a small 'shed' in comparison that had to be replaced for health and safety reasons. Things will not be the same but hopefully they will be better as I expect some carnegie stand season ticket holders who wish to join in the singing could well move seats if allowed

A sound system and microphones will be installed to amplify the sound.

We got mickey wet through yesterday. When the club advertised the limited 2000 season tickets for the "New Southstand" they failed to add "ROOFLESS New Southstand".
Pretty important omission I would say, do you think the Trades Description authorities would be interested.

Could be worse.

You can come stand in with the 'standers who didn't get in there, in the Carnegie with us regular Carnage standers?

I do wonder how some younger supporters would have coped having to put a shovel and thermos in the car before driving from Hull/Leeds to Whitehaven over the Pennines.

Did they tell you the roof would be on from the start of the season?

I think it was made quite clear it would be a partially built South Stand, hence only 2000 going on sale.

Is there any indication when this number is going to increase.
