T Verte Val (English: "The Green Wall") is a stand in The Snakepit stadium, which is the home of the Naldas supporters group, which holds 50,000 spectators and employs safe standing. The stand is one of the most notorious stands in Micras due to the behaviour of the Naldas based there.

Background

T Verte Val is the West end of the Snakepit, the national stadium of Senya and host to the Senya national football team. Whilst the stadium occasionally hosts cup game, t Verte Val is commonly associated with the national team.

A base for the Naldas

The Naldas use the stand as their base, with the entire stand using safe standing. Due to its reputation and its association with the Naldas, the Senyan FA sell tickets for Senya national football team matches through the Naldas, who require fans to prove they are "hardcore" enough for games.

Stand rules

The Naldas fans, in agreement with the Senyan FA, have came up with several rules for the stand which differ from other areas of the ground:

  • No food is allowed in the stand
  • Only flares, smoke bombs, mobile phones, wallets/purses (with reasonable items in), lip balm, banners and flags are permitted as "non-worn items"
  • Nobody under the age of 14 is permitted
  • Nobody under 165 cm in height is permitted

However, stewards can and do retain the power to expell and/or arrest somebody from the ground, though this is usually only done if somebody is posing a danger to other supporters or if someone is starting a fight.
