TICKETS (25 Viewers)

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Absolutely, but why were seats that were sold for the Blues game not sold for this one? It's really odd.

Birmingham were given effectively a whole stand which I assume in some ways is easier to plan for

Loads of empty seats dotted around because loads moved round to the corner and stood there.

Really? You couldn't get in 15 or 14 without a ticket in there

I'm talking about the North Stand, loads of empty seats , a number in clusters. Club just didn't sell them for some reason.

All the fans missed out tickets, lucky bastards

Didn't look it.

28k is about right. 1200 empty in the Boro end, 2500 segregation.

Where did the fans in 13 move from?

14. Nothing more than moving into space.

No one tried to enter the south stand despite what the safety nobs say about us

Exactly, because there is a fence there!

 

[Saddlebrains]

Imagine having less people for a play off semi than you do against Birmingham

Clubs a joke at times

 

[bigfatronssba]

I’m even more baffled by the decision to not sell tickets in block 13.
They didn’t even have the netting out, and then let a load of fans in there anyway.
The cretins who decided this need to explain themselves

Yeah loads in most of the blocks. Probably explains the empty seats.

Plenty were in the aisle between 11 and 12. The young lads who moved into block 13 did it for a laugh. Even the police were laughing about it. They were y
oung, clearly not going to cause any great trouble. What troubles me is that 100s of city fans couldn't attend today when there were loads of seats available. What is clear to me is that whoever makes these decisions isn't a football person.

Same happened at Burnley away and some other games I've been too. A serious issue that none seems to care about.

The empty seats were a joke, a whole block behind the City dugout too, a lot of money lost there

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Can we also agree never to have a stupid novelty flag, more tinpot than the empty seats

Was too small.

Those are for the staff/coaches. Usually full.

they made it sound massive when it was really about the size of one of grenners bath towels

 

[Boosh]

Was a shambles all round, club and fans both in the wrong

About time the SAG had a word with their Stewards then that they employ. Formed a line on the stairs in the middle to the top between block 17-18 and then let people stand and congregate in front of them all match!

And it was being passed around upside down

And it was being passed around upside down

It was ok until it got to the North stand.

It was upside down by block 19

Fair enough, couldn’t see as I’m in block 20.

 

[David O'Day]

it was like we where passing a rizla about

No it was behind them

Yeah that square block of seats is usually for the youth players and staff. No idea why they didn't use it today. Maybe because all the youth players are off on holiday?

They have
The decision was nonsense for 13 and the two small blocks at the end too

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

Attendance was 29k so what was expectee

 

[shmmeee]

I'd have liked to have been the judge of that.
Hope the plastic fans that denied others, like me, enjoyed their one day out.

Could have had my kids ticket if you’d replied to the thread…

 

[GIMOC]

They should have added the stewards to the attendance would have been 32k then. stupid amount

 

[Nobbie_67]

I had a mate who was watching on Sky messaging me to ask why there were so many empty seats? I've not watched it back yet, but we're losing loads of income with this over zealous "safeguarding" and has to be addressed before next season.
