Does anyone know what rows are the singing section and in which blocks- really struggling to find that information online

We sorted our move today and are happy with it, one thing I have never understood is there where 3 options when registering , safe standing , enhanced singing and a standard seat. I have seen nothing since then to suggest which area is the supposed enhanced singing section is, is it any clearer in the ground??

There wasn't anything special about them. Not really sure if there's a special plan for those unless it's just to try and get people who are set on singing into the centre to try and create a nucleus for the atmosphere.

I hate to sound like an FOC but I left early.

Sick to death of coming to City hoping (but only half-expecting) to be able to get some hot food only to be left hungry time and time again.

It's not hard to cater for coeliacs but City seem to find it impossible. It affects 1 in every 100 people (which means this would affect about 35 people there tonight) but from going to City tonight you'd think it didn't exist. Hot food options were: pies, burgers, or hot dogs. All stuff I can't eat.

Alright fine, I'll get crisps or popcorn to tide myself over. We get told we can't use the complimentary voucher to get snacks. I get offered the vegan burger because the staff clearly haven't received any training on food intolerances an allergies.

Nice to know that they don't bother catering for an autoimmune disease but do cater for people who choose to be vegan.

I thought to myself, 'Alright, it's just a test event. Availability of anything will be limited, just take your pictures with the trophies and see which former players might be knocking about for photos'. Turns out the "former players" advertised were just gonna be interviewed on a stage and that was about it?

So I've essentially paid £5 plus travel fees (twice for my mum) to go and sit outside for two hours, hungry and bored and wishing I'd stayed at home. I'm only annoyed because of the food situation because they don't provide any coeliac-safe options and they also don't let you in the ground with your own food.

Felt excited to be a little part of history and to help the club get things ready for Pep's leaving do on Sunday but I'm tired of feeling like an afterthought. Like I said before, people choose veganism but I've got no choice about my diet. The club have been a bag of shite on this since the start of the season and it doesn't look like it'll be getting any better.

Just back from the test event (via a pit stop on the way home, one for the road), it was an enjoyable evening, I couldn't be arsed this morning given how the last 2 days have gone, but knew that there were others who couldn't get tickets and that the club needed to meet threshold so was always going to go, and glad I did.

Great views as you'd expect, which is the bare minimum, the concourse looks just like the Co-op live, very spacious with hi-tech ordering screens, but it doesn't feel much like a football ground to me!

Loads of steps going up to the safe standing area at the top. And a fair amount of steps just getting up to the level 2 concourse in the first place.

Staff all very friendly and helpful tonight, both those directing you and those serving behind the bars. I got my pie and pint with the voucher, so all those whinging bastards moaning about the £5 entry fee can eat humble (steak or cheese) pie.

Oh and Danny Wilson did a speech, at the end of which he said, and I quote, "don't listen to the red cartel cunts in the media, Pep is going nowhere!".

Well done City.

shut up you miserable ****.

If you don't want to get involved helping City get a safety certificate then fine but why talk shit about it constantly sounding like a right mard ****.
