I don't get this it'll remove the chavs from the so called chav corner. What's to stop them buying their passes there?
I'm sure no non chavs will want to sit there and be intimidated by the away chavs.

I understood it. Obviously my Msc helped!!

The fact they will have a designated seat makes it easier to identify who they are and ban them.

If it's for the greater good so be it. Means long distance travellers like me can't sit with their folks on a match day, which is a shame, but there you go.

Im just wondering how the stewards are going to be able to make sure every single person in the east stand are sat in there designated seats and not moving about?

Because then they would be sitting in someone elses seat?

So every seats going to be taken at every game are they?

That's the general idea yeah. As the East Stand sold out a few times last season then I'd imagine very few seats will be "empty". Why would the stewards have to make sure your in the right seat anyway? If you have a reserved seat what kind of cretin wouldn't sit in it?

Actually does this mean the end of pay on the turnstyle for the East Stand? Surely you will have to buy a ticket with a seat number on it?

I don't know if this has already been mentioned but couldn't the club just make the north east side reserved and leave the south east unreserved?

Why would the stewards have to make sure your in the right seat anyway?

Well if a seat is going to be used as evidence against a culprit,it would be a good idea if the right person was sat in it.
I've got a season pass and only attended about 5 games last season.
Ok someone I know used the pass sometimes when I was away, othertimes no one did. Hence empty seat.
That brings me onto another point. If there are any left over vouchers, where will you get a spare ticket for.Whoever you take won't be able to sit with you.

Assuming that they find an empty seat to sit in the people sat around them will soon know if they regularly sit there or not. Besides which the imbeciles very rarely knock about in 1s or 2s which will make it even more difficult to find empty seats together. Regardless of that, anyone causing trouble now is going to pretty much have to buy a season pass and run the risk of having it taken off them. It also makes it more difficult for groups to congregate together unless they all go buy their passes at the same time.

I'm pretty sure that they are not intelligent or organised enough to arrange a block purchase of season tickets.

I won't be a passholder next year due to being at Uni in Huddersfield, but this now means when I'm home it will be hard to get tickets with my mates who are passholders. I was in Chav corner a few times last year and only saw trouble once (at the Leeds game), which was caused by people not normally there (admittedly I don't sit there every week).

I knew you would have a Mcs Dave you know your stuff

...well apart from your Hally opinion

Possibly not, they could send the tickets to sell on the gate , pre allocated

It might actually stop people buying for the South Stand and then moving to the East? They won't be able to sit "just anywhere" in case that seat has been sold.

I'm guessing season pass holders will get their seat every match and the walk-ups will get a seat number allocated on the day. IF people wanted to sit with mates, surely they would all go to the ticket office and say where they would like to sit? Or have I completely misunderstood?

will we get the chance to choose the area where we would like to be? dont fancy sitting right at the front

only if you get in sharpish

most of the original reserved will be kept back till after Nov 27th to allow current passholder to renew though

Guess E8 will be the ideal spot to look at

Always odd seats around us in the East Stand (reserved section), even on "sold out" days.

If this is a tactic to improve attendance in the KC, then fair enough. If its too control chav corner, its unlikely to work imo, same as banning beer. They need to get to the root of the problem.

tbh, me and my lad usually sit through block 16(not far off the chavs!!)about halfway up,and have usually got to sit in or around the same area every game.i would rather go in the west stand than sit at the very front of the east!

Well if its fully reserved, beer should be allowed in the east only

how do we know they were all pass holders? i know one female who sits there and she didnt have a pass,but went to most games.they will probably still sit there,by just buying matchday tickets,as that will most likely be an area no-else wants to sit in,and therefore be available on a matchday

But sadly it won't be so forget it!

The only thing I have against a regular seat is if you get stuck with someone who could drive you nuts.
In Grimsby Town`s halcyon days I had a seat next to a couple of blokes whose sole sayings the whole season were,
"Thats a hospital ball" or "Its a bit agricultural"......it could wear thin in the end.

If you don't want a reserved seat, then you'll just have to go in the South Stand unfortunately. It may be an inconvenience at first, but hopefully it should solve the rest of the problems we've been having.

If you get stuck next to a numpty, then hopefully they will be easier to identify and ban due to them being sat in their usual seat.
