Queue to relocate.

[Gojairu]

4th row of the 3rd tier now. Block 304
Does the rain get there?

You get a very occasional drip or two if the wind is blowing. Been on 2nd row of 304 since the ground opened and only seen the floor damp once.

I've relocated to Row D from Row V there. The view near the front looked perfect when I had a quick check a few games back.
I'm really looking forward to my new seat :-)
Do you lot sing much?

Just to share my experience: rang through just after 9:00 on Friday morning . First attempt was rejected - the message stating that there would be a 2.5 hour wait and then they closed the connection. The second attempt was a little more successful, at least this time I was put into a holding queue with various recorded messages. So I placed my phone onto speaker mode ( landline) and waited . After 1 hour and 43 mins enduring the mind numbing elevator muzak the line started to ring again and I was placed onto another queue with a message stating that there would be a 45 minute wait!!!! " we are sorry for the delay but we do value your call"

After a total waiting time of 2 hours 29 mins I was finally able to speak to the ticket office.

This part of the process was very swift and very efficient. I was relocating from 119 row W to sit with my son on the front row of the East stand - managed to be re-seated four seats away on the same row, so very pleased with that. I agree with all the previous comments that there must be a better way of doing this. I am fortunate that I work for myself from home so I can afford to waste 2.5 hours of my own time - but come on City, sort this one out!

It'll be interesting to see how the online system copes when us Blue->Gold upgraders are let loose tomorrow morning. I can see it would be a really difficult bit of programming to let the system operate online because seats are becoming available and other being filled all at the same time. It's really too fluid. And it's not that simple to say what's best between say CB3 in the gods, and E3 on the goal-line but towards the front. At least for us plebs tomorrow there is a bunch of available seats and when they're gone they're gone.

Fascinated to see how the website can say definitively that CB1&2 and E1&2 are sold out. But the relocating is still going on, no? Someone is bound to be swapping out of CB2 front row to go taste the atmosphere in SS and doing it late this afternoon, aren't they? Well I can dream.

What sort of numbers are we talking about here? Didnt think there would be so many trying to relocate.

It's going to be fun tomorrow, trying to get three tickets for a friend who's away on holiday

I relocated because I got tired of the slog up to the third tier to be honest. I was in 307 east, row P. The view was fine, and I had a good set of lads around me. I had a chest infection back in December and it nearly killed me getting up there lol!!

Is anyone here anywhere near Tier 1, 305, row u, in East now?

I phoned about 8.55 this morning, got through about 9.45. Just had my phone on speaker while I was working, relieved as it wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. So I'm now in 218, row c, anybody else up there, hows the view/atmosphere?

I'm 216 Row C. Good view. The atmosphere is OK. Not really loud but everyone gets behind the side.

Anyone know what time the online sales start tomorrow ? Will it be 11am or 9am I wonder. Can't decide whether to go to the ground or chance the online frustration. Like you I don't know how they can be sold out on cb L1+2 and East L1+2 when folks from those seats might relocate today !

I tried to relocate from South Stand Level 2 to South Stand Level 1 this morning.

Took 10 mins to get through on phone, but there are only singles left in the South Stand Level 1 so stayed where I am. Found that a little hard to believe, but have to accept that. I am very happy to have a seasoncard

A bit annoying to think of the crowds we could be getting next season and all the new supporters that City are missing out on.
