the current away end works perfectly...

If you change it you create new problems.. If you consider the flow of people outside Carrow Road it does seem problematic. A lot of home fans approach and leave on the bridge/bracondale side.

The away fans currently walk down from the station or from parking up Carrow Road.

These plans arguably mix the fans approach/ exit flows together? Especially at the back of the River End.

No clear reason for the move has actually been given. They haven't communicated the logic very well which is why people are angry.

    - I don’t get that as an argument (NCFC) - Duck, Oct 13, 10:15:37
