outpricing and moving longterm season ticket holders

The new prices will include access to a sports bar on level 2 concourse I believe so semi corporate. I can see why companies might be interested in a couple of these but for the long standing match day fan, these gimmicks don't really mean a lot.

I got the letter but I actually see it as a positive for me and the lad. I currently pay around £780 for CB level 2 padded seats and the letter indicated that we will get first dibs on the new stand. I am bored where I am, sick of getting dodgy looks for swearing and shouting and surrounded by corporates or families treating themselves. I have around 7/8 regular near me and I will miss the banter etc with them but not the rest of it.

I quite like the look of that new stand and if I can get first 3/4 rows in there for £599 a season, I will be happy with that. I might even go for the £299 ones at the back and then when I miss the odd game, it doesn't cost as much and not bothered at that price if it stays empty. At least it won't be seen up there!!!

get in 111 with me mate,real scrubbers you can pick your nose or arse and no one bothers

Sounds just up my street that....Count me in!!!
 
How do the club think they are suddenly going to sell the whole of level 2 to corporate when there are still empty boxes now. And this is whilst the legends lounge in the south stand is out of use.
Sure you will sell out for the big games, but will all the big time charlies fancy Southampton at home on a freezing January night ? NO !

It`s a piss take that's been thought up by some number cruncher.

Probably the same clown who came up with the idea of giving the WHOLE of the north stand to families and then realizing kids don't do night games or cold days.

It sounds like they are doing the wembley semi-corporate thing in some areas. Better facilities at a premium price. I've got every sympathy with those relocated, and I'm sorry for if my initial post to MCC came across as too aggressive. But it is a sensible business decision for a club in the modern era of the Middle class fan.

I would hazard a guess the research has been done the numbers have been crunched and the club will be satisfied that they all add up
 
It's not really a stadium expansion is it? They are just making room for all the fans they are kicking out of level 2.
 
don't forget how lucky you were to get the best seats in the house when we moved.
Some of us had season tickets in the main stand for years but ended up in the third tier.
You've had it good for ages. Time to milk the corporate world.

And some of us had seats bang on the halfway line two rows behind the directors box yet ended up on level one
Whilst mate got front row of level two, that's because they were dating someone who worked in the ticket office who also got himself and his/her mates tickets up there too, even though they had been in the Platt Lane

Life's a woman
