1. It's a goodwill gesture, not compensation. Big difference. Parish actually called it compensation. But hey, what does he know.

The notion of having a "singing section" is a complete misnomer - surely all corners of the ground are capable of airing their voices (more so if there is some excitement and passion from the players and management) ?

The club wanted the HF to return so came up with this marketing strategy ! At the end of the day if the atmosphere at the ground has been somewhat flat it is because of our dire home performances and results - we haven't scored a goal from open play at home yet nor won a game ! Give the crowd somewthing to get excited about and the atmosphere will improve greatly. All the flag waving,displays and singing of the HF hardly translated into good home results but we are told the return of the HF is for the "Greater good".

And why not? The (very obvious) difference is the existing S/ticket holders did not force anyone out of that seat before THEY occupied it. Bit weird that has to be explained but there you go....

What marketing strategy have they come up with. Seriously, this is such an idiotic statement.

Noticed last season when we played some of the so called lesser teams and we were losing that they bantered us about our “famous atmosphere”. Whole thing’s laughably overplayed. Made a big difference in the Championship but looks like yet another example of Premier League expectation. Seriously ? Turf a load of other long term fans out of their seats ?

This 2,185th post on the BBS thread is pretty funny... ‘Why don't the 10 or so who keep posting evryday pm each other and just put out 1 statement between you there stop you repeating same things everyday I suppose you had to be there.

All I want is to know the new rules and who is calling the shots. CPFC says this is its singing section NOT the HF. So how do we join and who gets priority on the best seats in the house. Simple innit.
