I find this crazy. Can you imagine if instead of shutting the upper tier they'd offered £ 150 - £ 200 season tickets up there. If they were interested in getting fans back onside, filling the ground and getting back to the Premier League. Positive PR instead of this constant stream of shit.

Like many have said, this is giving up. Not only is Lerner inept, he's toxic.

If they did that kind of pricing, there'd be no one sat in any other areas of the ground. You can't have that large a seating area at that much of a discounted price.

One section (like they did with the section of the Upper Witton closet to the away fans) is fine but the UTR is far too big an area to do the same

What's the reason for this, is it that there's not enough space for them in the middle of the Trinity?

Correct, there's no where near enough space. As an earlier poster said, tickets are difficult to get hold of.

Am I right in thinking that there's no area for wheelchair using supporters of the away team, or has that problem been sorted now ?

It's been said on here many times before that there aren't enough wheelchair spaces, meaning many disabled fans can't watch games as the wheelchair season tickets etc are hard to get. I'm going by what's been said on here by wheelchair users/carers and also at more than one SCG.

I think the away supporters are in with the home fans in the disabled area.

The BBC did a review a couple of years ago of what proportion of the recommended wheelchair accessible facilities were provided by each club and we came 18th out of the 20 in the Prem that year with less than half the recommended spaces. This will have been planned long before relegation became a certainty.

Seeing as how most of our (admittedly few) shots have ended up hitting the back of the Lower North, this seems like a particularly cruel place to put those with less mobility.

Leeds are offering a 25% refund on season tickets if they don't make the play-offs next season.  Lets see whether Lerner and his cronies have the bollocks to do something similar.

and if they sell 15,000 season tickets by July 31 2016, and the club does not reach at least the Play-Offs, the Season Ticket refund will increase to 50% of the Season Ticket Price.

Drastic times call for drastic measures. I've called an emergency meeting of the Trinity Upper Ultras in the boozer pre match Saturday to canvas opinion. This is bigger and more crucial than the Brexit debate.
