That would be a perfect spot for away fans, as you have to walk past the closed turnstiles anyway for that area if you enter via shopping centre end. It would also free up the DK stand for home fans, as there is an entrance for the Jodi behind that area, it might work, especially as the Phibs end has been cleaned up last week by volunteers.
Good to hear the new DFC CEO talk about the possibility of making use of the huge space behind the town goal in oriel park on a podcast last week. If they could only build something there, roof both sides of the stand in an L shape (so not to obstruct the stand view), that would almost be enough to get things over the line for the next few years. The shed side needs to be knocked down, using the YDC as a backfill is just waiting to be utilized, but that's probably a longer project.
Oriel Park has a long list of issues as everyone knows, even a plan to get something sorted out would be good to see and would keep fans happy. It might be all talk but the more P6 and their man (CEO) talk about it (he has also used prog notes this season to talk about it) the hope is, it can happen.
Maybe all talk, more action needed, we'll see.
