Allocated seating. : Wed Mar 25, 2009 3:19 pm  

Went in to our club shop on friday to get a ticket in advance for our game at yours and was asked if I was going down on my own or in a party.
When I asked why I was told that it was allocated seating.
I was then shown a plan of where the seats were. At the side right next to the corner flag.
Surely buying tickets in advance would give you supposedly tickets on the halfway line?
Instead people who pay on the day have a chance of getting better seats than someone who bought in advance?
How's that work then?
And why the need for allocated seating? surely none of the stands are going to be sold out?

The East Stand will be full and the North Stand will be opened for any late comers when the East is sold out (for Hull supporters). Your blocks are the 2 at the end of the stand. If you want to sit in the middle of the stand you can do, but there aren't many seats available as most are ST holders and surely you'd want to sit with your own?

Paying on the day would give you no chance of a decent seat, as we have found out this season

On a related note I am a little disappointed that the cup match is allocated seating and we are forced into our season ticket seats. Fair enough, give us the option but i'd rather sit elsewhere with a few mates that I was going to bring a long.

asked the question earlier today...and I hope that the seating arrangements will be relaxed as I don't see us getting any more than 2,700 for this game......
So so so so so want to post a marketing rant....but I have promised

Just post something if you have something interesting to post. If people are going to take offence than its their problem.

I have also e-mailed the club with regards to this.

From the vibes I was getting from the Huddersfield fans, it sounded like very few of them were going to be bothering.

Has something changed? Thought most of your fans sat in the west stand?

Only the East Stand is open now, with North and South used as over flows.

Nope....I will wait with baited breath to see what happens now PB is in the saddle.
Spoke to some friends who are members of S(l)urrey cricket and attendances fell, whilst revenues grew.........worrying, but let's see

Just post your thoughts ffs, it would be interesting to discuss them I imagine. Scared of somebody at the club reading your nasty posts?
