There's been a lot of assumption that he's going to be successful, which is where my concern lies. We seem to be gambling the club's medium-term future on an unknown quantity of a manager.

He'll either do well, or he won't and his successor will have players like Coutinho, Kamara and Digne to work with, plus a cracking youth set up. Doesn't seem like that much of a gamble to be honest.

I imagine If Gerrard goes then Coutinho will be on the phone to his agent 2 minutes later.

Well he shouldn't have signed the contract. If he wants to kick off and wreck his last few years then let him. I think none of that will be happening.

I heard a rumour that another big change on card design is being contemplated. I am not going to be happy if they make a change and ST cards are claret & blue striped rather than plain simple claret?🤔

Do you mean the cards don't have blue edges?

Does anyone know if there’s a way of seeing what seats are available to relocate to or is it just a case of calling the ticket office on Monday?

Almost certain there isn’t, that would be very “here’s what you could have won”.

It would be a good idea, and not particulalrly difficult to pull off.

one time you could actually go in and view your seat?

It would probably save a lot of unnecessary calls to the ticket office if there’s not a lot of choice.

There's loads if choice if you fancy a seat tucked away in a corner somewhere.

There should be an option at renewal where they ask if you and your party wouldn't mind budging down one seat in your row if need be, and you get rewarded with a free pint or a pie or something, just to try and alleviate the amount of single seats dotted around the place.

This is only going to get worse with the waiting list! I asked if there could be a mini relaxation window for people where one of the group has dropped out & their seat is in the middle, to enable the group to bunch up, but you just have to take your chances in relocation day and hope no one beats you to it! Of course, the new person in the middle would most likely just swap seats, but someone will get that intransigent dickhead that insists on staying in the seat they paid for stuck in the middle of their group!

I’ve just given up 3 in the family zone, they’ve just kicked me out because my youngest didn’t renew. When I was given options there were plenty of single seats dotted about and a few doubles. As you’d expect it’s more difficult if there’s a few and you’d want to sit together.

I’ve been hit by the price increase and relocation cost to a more expensive zone. They’d better lift the FA cup this season!!!!

Last year there wasn’t. We moved and I spent hours on hold trying to arrange it. Also if one person is trying to move a group of you, then the club require an email authorising the person phoning to do so on behalf of the rest. This is regardless of whether your accounts are linked or not.

If I was trying to move I’ll get my 2yo to send her first email then!
She’ll be 3 soon, was asking this morning if we are going to football, bless her.

I think I’ve settled we are in about as good seats as we can get in the family zone, I like lower tier for her to be close to the action/nip down to the pitch by the tunnel at the end,  and as far back as can be for me for the better view.
(the club were helpful on the phone last year working out seat choices, me looking at the seat plan in front of me).
Challenge will be when the youngest is old enough if both want to come and we have to try to get three together.
