Are People Moving? (10 Viewers)

I agree but thats a very simplistic view. Change takes time, I would imagine in 2/3 seasons those in the corner would have migrated over. That will depend on availability though as it seems people are moving there from other parts of the ground because it's behind the goal.

There will be aggro when 15/16 is full and if we get a decent FA cup home tie (however unlikely :ROFLMAO:) and those in the south stand either overcrowd the corner or have to sit down in other parts of the ground.

Cross the bridge when we get to it, but when was the last big home FA Cup game? Must be a decade ago.

Watch us draw Man Utd at home third round now.

I remember rattling around with less than 4k there against Maidenhead (can't remember what year).

I think those days have gone.

Given relatively cheap prices for cup games, people will buy tickets just for the points.

Doesn't bother me too much. I'm moving to the SS area, if I have to move for the odd cup game, then so be it.

Clearly they're undecided about this,the natural thing to do would be South stand right across?

On the subject of FA cup games and those unsure about wanting to be moved out of their seat. Bear in mind not every team is going to want to take the full allocation, though of course this is usually the case. Also the FA cup rules state up to 15% of the stadium capacity required for away fans, at the CBS this doesn't equate to the full capacity of the South Stand. Perhaps a layout like this would be the plan ricoh2021.png

This is what I was thinking. If you remove segregation what’s the actual capacity of the new away end?

3,697? Approx 11.5% of total capacity. Add block 10 and you get 4,759 which is 14.8%

Anyone here with an existing ST and wanting to move to SS, are you just buying a SS ticket today and letting your old seat just elapse on whatever deadline the club have set?

Yeah, the entire South Stand will be given to away fans in the cup.

That's what I'm doing, but not the SS, just below it!

Yeah although I'd assume once a new seat is bought the old one will become available?

From the T&Cs

What happens if I buy a different seat?

If you buy in a different location, then your reserved seat will be released within 24 hours.

There's also a clause in the rule that 15% isn't enforced if the police / SAG don't agree to it. In reality how likely is this to be an issue. We need cup games where we're getting huge away followings wanting to show up

How often does that happen in reality? Not sure I wouldn't buy a season ticket on the off chance I might have to move a couple of times a season

To be fair, it’s a very minor concern. It’s likely to be 1 game a season, look at this season, our longest cup run for yonks and we only had 3 home games

The concourse won't enable a 4000/2000 split unfortunately.
It would be unfortunate if this is the case as with the shutters in the concourse of the stadium I understood the venue could cope with this. Has this been stated by the club?

We're moving down there and not fussed about getting turfed out once ina blue moon for a cup game

A lot of the single end seats in 14/15 have sold.

Clearly people migrating from other areas of the ground towards the corner and South Stand.

Is there any way to renew prem package and still move? Couldn’t seem to do it myself
We've moved from 20 to 11 and yer there wasn't an option to renew the premier package only buy a v2 one for £550, so just went for a £400 adult one.

You’ll be gutted if we get promoted and you’ve missed out on a free ST

Moved from the family zone to block 12, No season ticket for the kids though will just have to try and sort single tickets out for them going to be a nightmare. Think there were about 12 midweek games last year they are too young to go to them. It is what it is. Think with all the terms and conditions the family zone is going to be half full.

I’ve just bought my lad one again, he’ll still probably miss a few midweek games but I don’t work shifts anymore so none of us will be missing weekend games now.

Will you be attending the midweek ones without him? I couldn’t be arsed with the hassle of being frog marched out if I’m in there without my kids
