Will there be a 'Safe Zone' created, where someone could go and have a good cry in peace? Just asking for a friend. Friend? Pfft. Of course there will be a safe zone, alcohol and tissues will be free issued. Family stand could be moving East. |

Panic over the family enclosure staying where it is.rovers sent anti family. Though my adult season ticket has risen by £45 pound in 3 seasons. Poplar belief being that it’s all been frozen not so. I’m happy for the kids

I really hope this isn't true, the south stand is already quite full as it is. Add an extra 300? people and it's gonna be hard getting tickets.
My old man has bad legs, so can't stand for 2 hours, the south stand is his only option.
Is it really a good idea to put the kids right next to the away fans?
Is this true, or just a rumour?

Pretty certain the club have said it's moving but for some reason have not said where it's going, the south stand seems most likely. I'd thought it only made sense to put kids at the west side of the stand, away from the away fans, unless those rumours are true that we're going to build another temporary stand for the away fans, then the whole south stand could become a family stand. |

Where would this temporary stand go? There's not a lot of room on site, I've asked Nick Higgs in the past why we don't extend the south stand, he said there isn't enough room with the houses directly behind. To the best of my knowledge, there still is the lack of room, don't know where else you could put it? |

I think they are planning to build a little wooden structure at the front of the Blackthorn End for the away fans. Sounds sensible to me.

Built on the away end, although I've no idea about logistics or planning constraints of building a stand to house 1,000+ away fans on that terracing. It just seems a bit odd the club not making a formal announcement about where the family enclosure is moving, if it's just off to the existing south or sw stands. |

That's par for the course isn't it ! |

I spoke to 2 different people up the shop by time I got through and they rang me back. They both said northwest is still the family end £275 for adults. I said about rumours she said untrue. Hopefully anyway

Hopefully anyway Well somebody has got their facts wrong, either the ticket office staff or the OS article, I'd have thought it most likely the former? "The family terrace is now the North West Terrace and the Club will be relocating the family stand before the start of next season." www.bristolrovers.co.uk/news/2018/march/seasontickets/Although there doesn't seem any s/t prices listed for either the new NW Terrace nor the Family Enclosure/Stand. Just to add to the confusion for some reason the same article on the BRFCSC appears to omit any reference to the family terrace relocating: bristolroverssc.co.uk/2018/03/23/share-scheme-members-to-receive-voucher-instead-of-discount-when-renewing-season-ticket/ |

I've renewed for the NW Terrace, formally known as the Family Enclosure. Spoke to Tom G before doing so, and was advised to renew mine and my sons's for the old FE, and as and when the new one is announced, it can be arranged to move to the new location, or just stay where you are. As it stands, will probably just stay where we are, as all the friends with kids in tow I go with, including me, don't want to sit down anyway, and can't imagine too many from the North Enclosure will suddenly want to move and hurl abuse at Ellis from the NW terrace  |
