Bad news for non season ticket holders

[DIGSY]

Thats the way it is now, and thats the way it will be.
You cant expect to have a few seats reserved in the south for supporters that want to pick and choose for whatever the reason may be.
At least there are tickets, should be happy with that at least.

although it states that those stands are sold out.. that is just the season ticket allocation. there is a percentage in each stand which is not season ticket and allowed to be purchased each match day..

It has always been like that.

this is not a go at ST holders if you read it properly I say am still going to go when I can but simply pointing out I personally dont think its fair for people on lower incomes to not have the chance to purchase the lower end tickets

So you're saying the club should give you the sympathy vote because of lower income? You're lucky to have a job in this day and age! I just think that if you want it enough, you find a way of saving up for a season ticket.

TBH i like Level 3 East/Colin Bell stand
Okay the atmostphere isnt the best BUT i think you get an excellent view of the game and you can see the changing tatics during the game
I went to 11 Prem games last year ALL in Level 3 and paid on average £33 per ticket
So thats £363 which is good value considering how much other teams charge

Imho there are no crap views at Coms, plus the atmosphere is gonna be so much better now that every game will be a sellout.

I remember 2 seasons ago I went to the Fulham game, I could get a seat in the second tier, but the atmosphere was crap because not much more than 30 k showed up.

I personally prefer sitting at the back of the 3 tier in a packed stadium filled with blues willing my team to win, to sitting in a half empty stadium with a perfect view.

Hopefully at some point they will introduce a seatexchange scheme again, that should make things even better.

Was that the 3 - 2 game where we were 2 - 0 up at half time, Diomansy Kamara comes on and basically wins them the game in the second half? The end of season game? Ireland scored a cracking goal if I remember correctly.

No it was in april we lost 3-1 it was the game prior to the Hamburg cracker, luckily for me I went to both ;-)

I was just making an observation that all , there's always going to be a diffenernce of opinion between ST holders and None , I personally think £40 is worth paying just saying most wont

hopefully this problem may lead to the ground being extennded soon.

Been speaking to the ticket office and from looking at the new on line ticket system it does'nt look good for people like me that cant get to every game for work or cost reasons.

Apparently there are no seats availble behind either goal, nothing on the second level so all that is left, is the first few rows of the colin bell and east stand and the back back few rows of the third tier. So the most expensvie seats with the crapest views.

Not really very good value paying £40 quid to sit at the back of the third tier to watch teams like blackburn , o well suppose should not complain il still go when I can but club does risk upsetting a lot of fans.

There aren't any crappy views. It certainly ain't the Lower Bullens.

They stopped doing this around 2006 or 2007. The South Stand is sold out, and was last year too.
