I have read so much on this subject and I am not surprised both threads have been locked.

We have been waiting 10 years to get the new stand and before we are even in people are talking about boycotts and petitions. Let us get in there and enjoy it before making any rash decisions. I can only say up to press in my meetings with EMC as far as the supporters are concerned they want to accommodate us as much as they can. When decisions are made on pricing etc we can have some imput as they have already seen at the Sheffield game how busy the Supporters bar is and want to build on this. Even the Club do not know what if any of the East Stand will be open for the Hunslet game. Please be patient we are nearly there. The Council themselves want to make it a success for both sets of fans.

Maybe some fans want the ground to remain as it is using 3 sides and being run by SST. We want however a modern Stadium to compete with other towns if we all want to move forward. Yes in a modern Stadium costs are more but hopefully we are getting improved facilities.

I have always believed when having discussions you do not go in and start with threats. Good communication is what is wanted for all parties.

If after it opens and fans are not happy then lets sort out then rather creating bad publicity now which might not be founded.

excellent post,fully agree.saw people getting shouted at for going in SSB after town/colwyn game,ridiculous.

one must assume this poster works for EMC



EMC and companies of their ilk are alienating the every day fan in both sports and unless people make a stand they are going to have every ground in the country soon enough, what is wrong with keeping the current prices?

what do you get out of stirring he works for halifax rl, billiant post lets just enjoy the stand we've whinged about not having for many years

No body is having a go at the new stand, just the highwaymen that have been charged with robbing us blind.



And it's hardly stirring if he doesn't know who's behind a username. However as far as Neil's sentiments about EMC go, well, I think THECherry&Whites makes the best post!



I have had the misfortune of the "match day experience" at the LSV and it's one I would not want to repeat, yet it seems as though our home games are going to go the same way.



EMC don't care about the fans, if they did, they would not be getting rid of bottled Landlord (the SSB's best seller) for instance. All they are bothered about is £££, but I'm afraid with Shears, 3 Pigs, Pump Room (even Shay Hotel) as close as they are, I won't be turning up early or hanging around after games to be overcharged for warm, flat ****. And I'm not the only one.

Halifax Town fans are ruining this forum.

if you disagree with what i wrote why not state what you think is wrong with it

FC Town fans are ruining this forum.

This is an issue that affects us all. Not just the Town fans though.



Have a word with any Leigh fan. We are being taken for mugs!!!

Am I right in thinking that the SSL will be run by EMC in the near future then? As for the new facilities, I don't have an East stand ticket so I wont be able to access the new modern facilities, will I still be paying the same price for it or will I actually be allowed in the East stand supporters bar regardless of where my ticket is for?
