DEANO Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 Plenty of standing on the shuttle busses sometimes you have to take a step backwards to move forward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dixiedean Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 Surely the point about standing is that YCFC aspire to be a League club again. In the dim distant past I remember them being in the Second Division (Championship). A long time ago I grant you. But if teams like Burton Albion, Rotherham, etc can play there, it is not inconceivable York City could again. Why build a stadium that is not up to your aspirations? That said, the all-seater rule is obsolete for new stadiums and should be ditched. But it hasn't been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HKR AWAY DAYS Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 There has been a really positive but realistic feel-good factor about York for a while now and it is great to see. If they can improve on what they achieved last season they could make another run for SL next year. Imagine York in SL. You'd love to see it.

It is what it is. I'd much rather have a brand new 8,500 all seater than a 98 year old 7,500 capacity ground (less a few hundred each year as the safety certificate condemns another section) with the option to stand on a crumbling terrace and a piece of guttering against a wall for a toilet. Each to their own I guess. I don't suppose you'd be privy to it Gav but do you know if the ground is being built with the possibility of safe standing/terraces in mind for the future? I think spurs have done something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not privy but considering both clubs wanted it now, I really hope that at least one stand has been future proofed for this in some way! @GavWilson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
