Common sense prevails, given the relative small number of away supporters Eastbourne and Hungerford will bring to Plainmoor, what a great decision to open up the away terrace for home fans for the last 2 home matches.

Yes, and don't you just love the romantic, inspiring name for the stand?: The Riviera Storage Stand. Blimey!

I wonder there whether they'll be access to the away end from the popside?
Fantastic being in that stand when Tim Sills headed in against Histon in the play-off semi final!!

Yes, and look where Histon are now! I was in the pop. side for that match, it was full by about 2.30 and a lot of latecoming TUFC supporters were told (rather against their will, I think) to go to the now ridiculously named Riviera Storage Terrace.

Could've & should've attached Ian Twitchins name to it, when I started going in '78 we always stood on the first sleeper to the right of the goal in the Babbacome end.
Shame, but there it is ,another argument for another day.
3 points please lads, copy.

Impressive for an evening kick-off.
