In 2015/16 there will be at least a couple of thousand level 2 ST holders looking for new seats plus many others enticed by the price.
Question-----" I am currently ST holder. Do I need to join the waiting list to have the opportunity to relocate to any alternative seat either for 2014/15 or in a potentially expanded stadium in 2015/2016"
Answer-- "No, The relocation process ahead of 2014/15 will be the same as previous seasons. Providing you renew for 2014/15, you will be given first priority on any available seats within the stadium (including new seats made available via the proposed stadium expansion) for 2015/2016 during the seat relocation period. 2014/15 St holders will have priority over supporters who have joined the waiting list.
That to me says any of the current 34000 or whatever it is ST holders who fancy a cheaper seat can get first pick leaving none for waiting list people. Obviously there will be other seats available but doubt the £299 ones.

Yeah, this is my thinking too. I spend around £300+ each year on tickets to watch City so each year I have a weigh up as to whether I want a season ticket. I'd be paying more and would probably stop going to the cup matches, which is the majority of games I go to due to the price and availability. I don't see this new offer as all that tempting, yeah a £299 season ticket is a great price but how many will available? Putting a £100 deposit for me and the other half means that at some point we will have to get a season ticket (or loose the deposit), even if it's at a higher price than we wanted.
What happens after the 2014/15 season, is there still going to the a £100 waiting list?

I don't believe that all the seats will available for relocation for current ST holders, becouse they are taking a deposit i think they will have to guarantee that there will be some tickets available to buy.
They could offer 50% to each that way they will be getting the new season ticket holders joining up and some of the current ST holders will get a chance to move, and if you have friends that are buying the new tickets and you would want to sit with them you should be moved up the list ahead of a single current ST holder wanting to relocate on there own.
