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.

If you get stuck next to a numpty would it not be possible to move seats? There will be plenty of non pass holding reserved seats about.

I would assume you are right, making it all reserved will simply mean you cannot just sit anywhere on the day, which means you'll have to get the ticket from the ticket office, and that will mean longer queues pre-game.

they can sell reserved on the gate, pre print the tickets, been done before

Indeed, but they have to make sure they stipulate that you are buying a ticket for a set seat, not merely entrance to the stand.

I think it could backfire on the club. I understand the reasons for it but surely idiots can just be dealt with on match days?

All that this will do is alienate some genuine fans, discourage walk ups and the idiots will just sit where they want anyway as there will be plenty of spare seats

Thats exactly my fears...one game I was gonna ask for half my money back as a guy with an ass as big as Steve Macca was taking up half my seat as well as all of his own

indeed, there are only a few games where we'd benefit from not having to keep a %ge free.

You'll be OK next year, Wolfie will be slim enough just to go in his own

There is now a plan on the club site of the seats numbers row etc in the unreserved areas of the East Strand for folks ho want to sit where they usually do in unreserved but did not know the seat numbers.
