I think the club are gradually introducing a policy of having a family section in the away area as well , which will be closest to the home Family Stand.Together with the "buffer zone" which already exists , that should help minimise the problem

It will create another problem. My kids wanting to have a go against their kids.

For me it was never just about watching football, i loved the football, but i also loved the meeting the boys in Rumney (Potters Wheel-sadly gone) if it was a home game and getting in the pub early doors, not partiulary to get pissed, just a meeting place and there we would plan our day according to who we were playing.

Do a couple of pubs in town, queens vaults, cottage, prince of Wales, again acording to who we were playing there would be changes to the day. but for me going to watch City was an event, a full day out from early morning right through to next day, according to who we were playing.

Some games would be less of a day, but most in them old Div 4 games were a lot better than the games today for a laugh. You had a few different groups of lads, the food was ok after a few beers, you had to piss up against a a wall, but it was brilliant.

Being closer to the away fans made a difference, whatever your intentions were. You could hear them and they could hear you so the banter was a lot better and funny as f**k on occasions from both sides.

You could walk around more freely and although we never had the fan base in them old Div 4 games, the atmosphere was second to none, because it was 90% lads having a day out.

Ninian park will never die, but the ccs is dead already.

I seem to remember the stand bouncing at Leicester.

The Preston fans to our immediate left clapped us at Deepdale for enduring another shite display and still singing through it as always.

Taking the piss when Wildig scored at Newcastle.

300 of us singing jingle bells whilst freezing our bollocks off on a Sunday afternoon in the bleakest shithole I've ever been to - Middlesbrough.

Let's face it, we've got some of the most vocal away support in the country.

What can you do when we're interspersed with knobheads who don't seem to understand what supporting your team is all about at home games?

It's not CCS's fault. The only way it falls down in comparison to Ninian is the fact that there's no standing and the seating is reserved. And more often than not it's so full you have to take your correct seat.

You can't blame CCS for other minor imperfections in the laws.

Have you forgotten the atmosphere that we created against Swansea and those two Leicester games ? They were awesome and had we been promoted those games would off created history at the CCS that fans would recollect many years from now.
Its up to us the fans as to what the atmosphere is like at the CCS. But when there's doom and gloom that's going around our club at the moment a lot of us start on the CCS and then reminiscing about Ninian Park.
Ninian was a stadium that i loved and cherished but its gone and when i left for the last time i said to myself that i would embrace the new one and let Ninian Park die and dont look back.
At the end of last season no one was talking about Ninian Park but we were raving about the atmosphere that we created against Leicester. If the club wasn't in the shite we wouldn't be talking about this again. :ayatollah: :ayatollah:
