Their privileges could be stuff like having banners in that section, selling their own tickets to the section, maybe having a tented area outside the ground to congregate before the match, making a mass entry through the safety gates with flags etc.

Basically we need groups of "special" more enthusiastic fans that go out of their way to create an atmosphere. We almost had that a few years ago with the Ultras, but they got carried away with the drinking and fighty stuff. You have to enable them by giving them special privileges.
Some good ideas right there.

Get some standing room in the stadium that's one thing that has killed atmosphere and made it more expensive to go to games. Biggest reason that football at the top level is a middle to upper class game now is no cheap tickets in the standing areas. That would help both teams. I know the premier league rule but it needs looking at.

Make tickets for teams who do not bring a crowd with them available to schools and Clubs in the area and beyond. Whats wrong with giving say 200 tickets and some buses for Wakefield school kids to come on Friday to see a game. Helps RL in general.

Marquee player for each club if wanted and up to club to pay for him anything they want so long as they can afford it. Imagine having SL in a years time with Sam Burgess, Greg Inglis, Sam Tomkins, James Graham, Thurston etc. Would take a drastic move but a few clubs would be able to challenge for services of the best.

For the CC games get a ruling change that season ticket holders get in for free or at least 50% off. Most do not turn up for them and i do not blame you.

I agree re the bands always facing one way they need to be facing South or East or rotate to game to game.

Have at least 1 fans forum every 6 months and look at certain issues that the fans want to discuss. And i do not mean Waneball or why we are poor but say access to the ground parking, amenities and so on.

And most important

GET KELVIN BACK.

It needs to be bigger, higher up & in HD. They could then perhaps show videos of the artists of the songs being played.

Or put the words up to rugby songs to get the crowd involved in so they know the songs.
Josie, A few seasons ago, I wrote to the Stadium Management suggesting that two giant screens be installed on the gantries of the North and South Stands.

I received a reply saying they could not afford it, even with all Whelans millions.

Where I sit in the center of the East Stand you cannot see a proper picture, only a blur!

For a modern stadium, it is not good enough and neither is the bridge over the canal.

p.s. No problem seeing the proper screen at the Macron

Don't know if this is true or not
However if it is, how many were expected with less than 24 hours notice.
People have lives, work etc etc

Would be interesting to see if the feedback received is communicated out to the fans
