Would a family end full of kids provide more noise, great for kids and all for lots of kids supporting the City but what we need is the crowd on the away teams back constantly, ramping the noise up but unfortunately for whatever reason it doesn't happen and that is not Wayne Nash fault it is us as fans.
What difference would moving the Canton next to the away fans make, apart from a few people jumping up and down in their new daps and shouting abuse not a lot.
As City fans we need to look at our selves rather than the stadium...Just my opinion of course

I along with 7 very close friends were season ticket holders for years right the way down to our division 4 days and not one of us have renewed.

If we made the premier I wouldn’t even bother getting a season ticket.

Instead of all these posts blaming individuals or whoever, why aren’t we putting a constructive list of suggestions forward to the club or at least the supported group, and try to engage with the club rather than this bitching and moaning?
The club deserves a stadium full of noise and passion, and like most of us agree it’s silent and embarrassing.
My suggestions-
1) giving some tickets away in family end for young children and local schools in the community.
2) better half time entertainment involving the fans
Any others??

A Few things .You still post on this message board so you must still have an interest.

I’m sure if we do go up though there will be less issues about filling the ground and more about how to get tickets.

Agreed best way is looking at other Clubs who have maintained large crowds when even not playing well on the pitch.
Not only have they sold cheap season tickets, Bradford really are a club at the heart of their community and do work with their fans and listen to them, but also they've never hurt their own fans, so thats where City have so much to make up.
Attitudes from staff?
Attitude from the people who run the club?
More closeness with the players and the fans
More with the schools
Listen to the fans more
Don't forget your loyal fans once promoted etc
Bradford City average of 20,000 for home games for a club in the middle of League 1(Old div 3) and have done for the last 5-6 years

The club or mr Nash don’t care that it’s silent and embarrassing though do they? Isn’t this how modern football is?
Plenty echo what miller time has said, we have lost lots of passionate fans but it’s easier to deal with if we say bollox to that, we haven’t really have we? Yet crowds are poor and the ground is quiet. Ninian Park was noisier in div 4 with 6500 fans going for promotion. On a lighter note, make all the lower ninian standing and charge a tenner, that should liven the place up a bit.

Yawn zzz zzz change the record. There are 16000 people at most games.
The stadium has shite acoustics, the away fans can't be heard by the Canton and anyone in Ninian is frowned upon by over zealous stewards those are the issues.
The re-brand is history.

My sons year in high school is predominantly Swansea fans, this is a school on the outskirts of Cardiff and I see the club doing nothing to address it.

Have to agree regarding stewards, i sit in he last row of the Ninian, have always preferred to stand, yet they keep forcefully telling us to sit down, nobody is behind me, its bull shit.

The re-brand doesn't matter now we are playing in blue.
Who said history doesn't matter? What I said was that the re-brand has bugger all to do with a discussion about atmosphere at the stadium in season 17/18.
