Were all the areas that are now Safe Standing in reality standing anyway ?

Just wondering if people who formerly sat are being forced to now stand


They gave up trying to enforce seating years ago so everyone just stands anyway so in practice nothing much will change other than it now being deemed safe.

More appealing for, errm, those of us of a certain age, as you now get something to lean against.

I also had the email re: you will have a new seat number., etc. And what I presume are my new seat details are now on the official site under my season ticket details. Same block, same row, my seat number has changed by about 15 seat numbers. I am happy with that.

Yeah, few mates have logged into their ticket account and can see two seats against their 23/24 season ticket. The second seat would appear to be the new seat allocated for next season. Bunch of them have been bumped over from L3 to L2, not sure why.

I hadn’t thought about it that way but you’re right it will be handy but don’t tell Heck otherwise he’ll claim it’s an add on and charge us more.

In the Lower Holte - have sat / stood in the same seat for so many seasons!!!! L5 Row DD - now received the same email - "your seat number has changed" so disappointed, the only reason I renewed for many seasons was because of the lads / ladies who sit by me etc..

Thanks for the tip. It looks like me and the kids are being moved over from L2 to L1, same row. Thats a bit far over to the corner of the Holte for my liking and hopefully not a restricted view. The alternative will be to look for a reallocation which will be another hike on top of whatever rises are coming.

Just looked at myself and son's ticket, it the same, luckily we are together,, don't know what they going to do with the original seats because our only two are directly next to the disabled section lower holtle meaning one else can a seat next to us, bloody perfect

I was wondering the same - if I am moving into a new block / seat - this must mean the person who was sitting their last season has now been moved as well.

I wonder in total how many fans have been moved in the Holte End and why are they moving us? it cannot be for corporate reasons.

I was so looking forward to this season after all the years of turning up to watch shite, and now I just feel so let down by the club.

It's saying that my original seats is now in the designated area of license standing, here's a good idea ask me first if I am happy to stay there instead of moving us

Jus a thought, perhaps the block has changed and not the seat location? so you have the same seat but a different reference point?

L2 has now become L1??

I think getting the email about being moved the day before the tickets are open for renew is shit, especially without any info on where we’re being moved to, its only information on here thats helped me find out where I'm being moved to.
By the looks of it we are being moved yards, but to a section i wouldn't of chose to sit in, the view will be worse.

Me too. I have proved I’m not a robot 23 times & when I get to the page it tells me I have no ST to renew, yet when Jane logs in, I am still next to her but we’ve moved 2 seats along!
Jane can see my ST but I can’t - so at least I’m not worried that it’s disappeared. I’m not paying for a week or so yet anyway so I’ll leave it til then to worry if it’s still not there.
