The cost of the new stands are ridiculously expensive and people will point to the Wembley attendance etc as reasons not to do it and I get that . However it’s much easier to convince someone to travel ten minutes from home to EP than to Wembley and we are selling 90% of EP each game. The walk up experience for a new fan is not great. It’s normally the last block of the popside with posts in your way and the stand has poor facilities. Sometimes the bogs don’t even work. It’s a shame they have paused on the ground developments. It must be the cost but we can’t carry on with 100 year old stands.

I am also getting fed up with paying top whack for a season ticket behind the goal. We need more side view seats. I wish there was some government funding, lottery money or local council funding to help.
