So new WHL was built over budget (understandable with cost inflation rife in the development industry in the past 6/7 years) and a year too late... constructed on the basis that it had the right materials to accentuate the crowd and create an atmosphere... a couple of issues

The old lane was buzzing at times due to the away fans being located down park lane... you had the shelf/park lane that generated the noise. New stadium... away fans put down the Paxton

Not a problem at all... but the key to the atmosphere was to get relocation of ST right in the first place to ensure the is continued

First forward and it’s clear the club didn’t want any coordinated atmosphere in the Paxton next to the away fans... why is this? And it makes us look likes idiots when you’ve got away fans bigging it up Paxton is dead not from want of trying to start something

Park lane has been a disaster as the new price points in the east and west have meant the old fans have relocated to lei lane for cheaper seats. They don’t want to pay through the nose

Club 1882 has been a shit storm and why put them in the middle of the south stand... defies any logic whatsoever. You end up with a hierarchy of ‘oh I paid double to be here I don’t want anyone standing in front of me’.... it’s killing the traditional or legacy supporters

Relocations have been a disaster. The club have had years after preparing, planning and constructing a new stadium for its fans that where people actually sit to them is irrelevant. Why build a stadium with top acoustics?

Ahhhh because of the fucking concerts... it’s becoming abundantly clear. They don’t want a fan base in Paxton next to the away fans because they don’t want that. They don’t want atmos or tribalism/rivalry

The lack of giving to our fan base is killing the game and our club
