It might be a little early for this. But where in the stadium would like the Borough Boys to stand and what will the section be called? Will the Borough Boys be in the middle of the field so they are facing the camera ( like Barra Brava in DC) or will the BB's be behind the goal. I would prefer behind the goal. As for the name of the section, I know that the two names that have been thrown around the most are the Five Points and the Bloody Angle but what are some other suggestions? I like the Five Points suggestion the best but if that isn't used then how about something simple, like the North End (or the South End).

In DC, there are two supporter's groups at midfield and one behind the goal. I like the arrangement at midfield since it creates a vibe that the whole rest of the stadium feeds on. It's also really good for TV to have that energy in full view the whole game. I'd point to the Cauldron in Kansas City as another example of that at a smaller scale. In DC they've split up one side of the stadium for SG's and the other for everyone else, AKA "the Quiet Side".
Having said that, the stadium authority might not be so keen to give up the expensive seats for the riff-raff and it poses some logistical problems if the SG intends to stand, jump, and sing the whole game, as it obviously should, since the SG can disturb the AYSO folks. I think that's why most teams have the SGs behind the goal.

i kinda like the behind the net deal... seems traditional.... but i feel like it's so isolated from the rest of the people... u go to a RedBulls game and it seems like the EMpire group, although loud... getting no support from the rest of the stadium... not to mention u can never see them on Camera... if i see a DC game u see their supporter group... and it appears like the entire stadium is like that.... i think for the team as well as the SG it would be beneficial bc anyone watching on TV would see the group

i think the corner area near the flag should be called
"the Bloody angle" and the rest of our section should be called
the "Butcher's Shop"
