Perhaps there should be a section allocated for home and away fans? I know it's rugby league and not football where fans need splitting up but I think it would help the newcomers like myself and all the old loyal fans enjoy the game better and after a few games everyone will know where to go!

The Drummer has actually retired. So if anyone is interested, im sure the club would love to hear the drum back. More noise and cheering for the EAGLES would be great. Cant get any quieter!!!!!!

Sheffield United started a new singing section iniative for the last match,there was about 100 at the back of gangway A and they made the noise of 1,000's,There hoping it will catch on and have bigger numbers next season,With like minded people who want to make noise it should be a goer,What about a dedicated section,Say Gangway B or whatever,Even the announcer could let people know before the next home game,Tell everybody who wants to sing sit in a certain area.

I like that idea EB. As far as the drum goes good riddance in my opinion! But that's just me, don't know what other people think...

I think in time people will congregate tgether like at DVS it takes time to get used to a stadium and it will take a few games for fans to figure it all out. I was very impressed with Bramall lane though, much , much better than DVS

If you want the best drink (beer) in Sheffield then google the Sheffield Station and head for the Sheffield Tap which is a real ale bar in the station itself. The selection there is second to none and the quality is good too. They do have the fizzy stuff and ciders and also the best selection of bottled beers I know.

If you are arriving that early though I wouldn't head for the ground there is nothing great in the immediate area.

If you can find your way to the centre by the City Hall/John Lewis store then lots of bars there or find the square between the town hall and the Crucible for soem nice pavement cafe/bars.

A point to note Sheffield is a city so be prepared to pay a lot more.

There is a good fish and chip shop (Moor Fisheries) on Cumberland Street behind Staples 5 mins from the ground.
