When people ask what 'American Pie' is about, they're missing the point. The song isn't about the lines themselves - it's about what is between the lines. The song is about what isn't there.

Middle of the Pavis stand by far.  I dislike watching football from behind the goal.

What right do you have to tell me I'm wrong?  You're not my Granddaughter.

I was moulded by the Sirrel Z block. The conventional left-to-right view and the loud, raucous crowd - can't go wrong. I don't enjoy the view from the Kop and I don't like how tame the Pavis is. (And then you have the family stand, possibly the most redundant stand in English football - can't we just chuck the away fans in there?)

Pushed for an answer, I will say I prefer to sit in the Kop - I'd rather a slightly worse view but a good, loud atmosphere where I can join in with belting my lungs out than sitting in the Pavis and being glared at if you make noise like you're sitting in a library.

Well I liked z block in the JS stand , but for years before that stood in the front of the old main stand , was a large group of us and we often got the main stand chanting in the good times , when super notts would ring out around the Lane , but for me now it's the Kop all day long , it should never go back to being for away fans either , another debate I know guys , just love the Kop when it's vibrant .

Well when we got kicked out the Sirrel stand for the away fans, we moved over to the half way line in the Pavis. Few of us were singing and chanting yesterday. 

Sideline for view, Kop for atmosphere. Isn't a good atmosphere part of the football experience?

The size and location of the Family Stand make it perfect for away fans IMO, but the folk in the executive boxes probably don't want to hear away fans every week.

I find the view from all the stands perfectly fine, though I was quite young the last time I sat in the Sirrel stand - I do recall it being bitterly cold (always seemed to be the case).

My favourite is the Kop, its just lively and I can see everything.

The Pavis for me wasn't very enjoyable, I used to sit there with my children when they was young - fans barely spoke and if you sang, it wasn't very wise. My son hated it and asked me to move us into the Kop, which my Grandfather told me was where the thugs sat when I was a kid.

Kop everyday 

That would be quite boring most days, we only play every couple of weeks.

Yet still more entertaining than some of the football we've witnessed over the years :lol:

Does anyone change their thoughts when away from home? I got talking to an opposition fan not that long ago who said that they preferred being behind a goal away from home but at when at their ground they prefer a sideways view.
