Are they not the ambulatory seats (if that's the right word), near the vomitories?

Edit: maybe not, the ones in the bottom tier are for the City Hall presumably, so 136 & 137 must be for the Cross bar?

It makes sense that 136 and 137 is the cross bar, its definitely not ambulant seating.

Looks like the cross bar seats are at the back of the original 2nd tier…

People gonna have to move.

Info clearly says that the seats are in level 1 too, so it does appear people will need to move from those seats unless its just the 2 rows which have already been moved, but this wouldn't give many seats across 2 blocks.
 
So they are charging new season ticket holders in the North Stand more than existing season ticket holders.

Yes, for certain season tickets. :-(

Level 0 & Level 1.

Why not just charge old and new season ticket holders the same?

What do people think of the NS season ticket prices?

Going off that image £745 for a season ticket, isn’t great and I can’t see many moving into that section from other areas of the ground. Seems like if you’re in the standing section on either side, you’re paying hundreds more than someone further back? Is that correct?

The prices at the back are decent, but it is a worse view.

I feel like it’s ended up being a weird mix of price types, for what should be a proper home end, which I don’t think we are going to get now.

Having corporate tickets in the family stand behind the goal is also ridiculous
 
How do people read this? Prices are fixed for current ST holders but ultimately do we think prices return to the new, inflated prices the year after, so the NS matches the SS?

Currently at the front of NS level 1 but thinking if I stay put prices will accelerate north fairly quickly. Obviously much cheaper in the new bit of I go now
 
One row behind, or one row in-front, NSL2, and the difference in the cost for a season ticket is £260.

OK, one row is sitting, and the other row is safe standing + sitting.

Tapping the shoulder of the person sat infront of you.

How much di you pay for your season ticket.

Encouraging people to move in to it, not a bad thing shirley?

Edit: and that includes existing NS holders.

It is the existing seats that are costing more making it same as SS0 and SS1, the back 35 rows are same whover buys them.

They are kinda saying it isn't family stand pricing anymore if you are new.

The worst thing is they may then reflect the 032 and 040 prices back on SS0 in the future.

In the new seats there is 16 rows ant SS0 median prices, compared to 10 in NS3,so in theory people pay more for longer, the medium section is 7 rows in in SSU compared to 10 in NS3, at cheapest ones only 12 row SSU compared to 19 NS3 (middle blocks). SSU is further away from the pitch too as there is no overlap.

I thought the adult middle seats would be expensive.

Bar the safe standing seats which are priced well, I can’t see there being a mad rush to relocate to the NS from other parts of the ground. Of course people will relocate, but I don’t see a mass exodus to NSL2 at those prices, bar the safe standing seats.

That’s what I find ridiculous. For pretty much the same view as well.

I think in terms of atmosphere, it’s going to affect the type of people who are in those seats. It could be like ss3 meets the Colin bell stand lol
