They managed to relocate away fans successfully at the Riverside and we have now also put a club shop right by that stand too. Pity really
They managed to relocate away fans successfully at the Riverside and we have now also put a club shop right by that stand too. Pity reallyJust think there’s too much infrastructure built around them being where they are. Fully moving to another bit of the ground isn’t practical. Can’t go further round to the posh stand really either.
Yeah but they will have spent a lot doing that. There will be a rebuild of the concourse required, also the concourse safety features include that it is one continuing concourse for the home areas.They managed to relocate away fans successfully at the Riverside and we have now also put a club shop right by that stand too.

Money not an issue if we go up of course
Was funny when the question about renegotiating came upWonder what our rent would be
On the proviso that city sell it for a fee.Allowing ST holders to put their seat back up for sale for games they can't make in general would be a good idea I think.
2. Is it true that we are looking to sign another Japanese player? (CCSWSC)
We don't have a lot of fixture changes yet.If for the rest of the season we don’t have a lot of fixture changes, season ticket sales are likely to be unaffected. People will forget about how ridiculous the first half of the season has been.
Interestingly with attendances being high across the board a lot of clubs are concerned with their ground being full of just season ticket holders. As it prevents a new generation of fans from attending games
Hahaha weirdly specific, based on nothing and never going to be answered.Can’t be a real question.
If they do give a shit, then great.Course they give a shit and the answer doesn’t really give the detail I need to consider whether more could be done
5. Up-date on Safe Standing Area for 2024-25 – Dave Boddy
Dave advised since the last meeting there has been a change of direction on safe standing. Talked about reconfiguring the away end. As the club moves towards bigger home crowds we have a lot of wasted seats due to the current configuration of the concourse in the South Stand. Lots of work has been going on to reduce the lost seats in the away end and reducing the away capacity.
The safe standing provision has been put on hold until this has been decided, not to say this is going away but both are major pieces of work that need to be done correctly.
Doug said lots of work is going on to optimise the number of seats sold in the stadium on match days. The last 3 games have sold out the general admission for the home end.
Any changes to the away configuration will be from next season.
Jim Brown asked whether we will see 31,000 attendances. Dave said yes of course when the reconfiguration has been completed.

18. Torn jeans and replica shirts are still on display pre and post match (worn by adults). Can the stewards be encouraged to enforce the dress code more effectively? (Corporate Area)
22. What plans are there, if any, to enable junior and senior season tickets to be up-graded to an adult ticket without having to pay the full price? Have the club considered a re-sell process? (Sky Blue Talk)
Changed a couple of years ago to mean that you have to purchase a full value ticket in line with other clubs that they have spoken to
Tynan confirmed they are looking at a re-sell process, now that sell-outs are happening.
No issue with thatOn the proviso that city sell it for a fee.
The acoustics are much better in the corner too.Just isn't going to happen.
The money it would cost makes it very unlikely.
The process and how it will work hasn’t been agreed yet so we need to wait and see what it is and not just a yeah yeah we hear you but not gonna do anythingIf they do give a shit, then great.
I don’t understand the rest of your sentence, but if the notes don’t give sufficient detail to make clear what was said / intended then that can be dangerous.
It does, thanks. And thanks for your efforts.The process and how it will work hasn’t been agreed yet so we need to wait and see what it is and not just a yeah yeah we hear you but not gonna do anything
Does that make sense?
I love that all they care about is dress codes. I think if you check back they ask this every meeting.Every time someone in the Corporate Area sees a pair of jeans with a slight tear in them

Have to ask the same question every meeting then. Don't fancy deja vuWas funny when the question about renegotiating came up
Dk said we’re 6 months in and lots going on so that’s enough on that!!!
lol
They guy who was seemingly from the Arena who posted on here said there aren't enough for 2024 standards but it was really expensive to basically rebuild the walls.Great work Pete. Thanks
Ps saw the comments about outside bars closing earlier, signage and curbs etc but didn’t see anything about more turnstiles being needed (only managed a quick read, sorry if I missed it) ?

So all the people who say they are stuck in massive queues at that time are lying? People who are turning up 40 to 50 minutes before teh game?I think the issues with the queues are being made a bigger deal than what it is. People were so used to getting in whenever they want. Too many people still arrive at the turnstile late on. The concourses, especially towards the corner and half empty 20 minutes before the game.
But are they really turning up at the turnstiles 40 - 50 minutes before kick off? Most of the whinging on here has been from people who turn up 10 - 20 minutes before the match starts.So all the people who say they are stuck in massive queues at that time are lying?

It doesn't matter how busy the concourses are, it fact that is likely a symbol that they are not getting people through the turnstiles whenever they want.
If you go on match threads you see people talking about the issues getting in way before then.But are they really turning up at the turnstiles 40 - 50 minutes before kick off? Most of the whinging on here has been from people who turn up 10 - 20 minutes before the match starts.

You have to be wary of Hells Grannies!I think the checks are a joke. It’s those which cause the queues.
Do they really need to riffle through an 80 year old woman’s handbag looking for a flick knife?
11:40? Or 11:59?If you go on match threads you see people talking about the issues getting in way before then.
I was stuck in a massive queue against Leicester and it was before 12pm.
The family zone should have a minimum games attended rule. Stops those who buy it cause it is cheap and don't come very often getting in instead of people who would come to all games but couldn't get a ticket over there.
From Singers you can see lots and lots of empty spaces.
I love that all they care about is dress codes. I think if you check back they ask this every meeting.
About 11:50 and had to join a queue that already was so long it was winding back towards the A44411:40? Or 11:59?
