I gather Zinedine Zidane has emailed Nicky Keye chasing his up too

Fair play to you for coming out. Plenty of L action in Orange is the New Black.

Notable that the fixtures card is now literally that - cardboard - not the same sturdy plastic as the ST itself - must have saved a few quid?

Why bother sending a fixtures card anyway? A large number of the games will be moved

I'm thinking of buying a season ticket again after years of not doing so (too much TSM's etc) - I looked this morning and you can get an economy job for £325. Can anyone recommend the best place for the cheap seats? I'm thinking of L9.

Definately one in the Lower Holte mate.....as far back as you can I think it the 1st 6 or so rows

Looks like there isn't the map on the official site for ST sales, but going on the Rotherham game, assuming no-one's mad enough to buy match tickets for this yet, then just one seat is available for L9.  There's a smattering across the front of the Holte, and plenty of at the back of the North Stand in the £325 range.  I love my front row Holte seat, nothing beats it for corners and when we score there.  But the sense of perspective goes out of the window at the other end, I have one eye on play and one on the screen to tell if it's in the box or 25 yards away.

I know the reason for this.

They have removed from sale every third seat in the Holte - basically they need to keep the upper and lower open but reduce the number of people in it sufficiently to be able to employ fewer stewards / bar staff / safety people.

They've done this by doing the above.

So we are in the privileged position of turning potential seat sales away for the sake of a few stewards wages? Excuse me if I'm being thick but is this really good business? Serious question and apologies if I've missed something.

Rotherham should be a decent crowd  surely. If we're talking a third of Holte that's what 4k empty seats which would surprise me for first home game.

Huddersfield midweek game straight after I can understand that.

If that's true across the whole ground, then wouldn't the maximum crowd we could get be under 30k?

It is only in the Holte. Not the whole ground.

Apparently a 33% capacity reduction means a 50% staff requirements reduction.

It stinks of eagerness to downscale if you ask me, but then again, it's to be expected, i guess.

So we've effectively shaved off 7500 from our capacity? 35,000 being the maximum.

What a load of small time shite.
