mike84 Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 There's usually someone sat in my seat every game. I think because its one of the few on the South where you dont have to be a dwarf to be able to comfortably fit with the shocking leg room. The look of bewilderment when I ask people to move is strange though. I've only paid the best part of £600 for the ticket and I want to sit in the seat I've paid for please!

Doghouse Daz Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 why would you wonder if you'd nicked someone's seat, doesn't your ticket have a number? Old age creeping up and getting a bit fuddled. Especially after a hard days graft and having had a few too many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S36 OWL Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 You wouldn't be having this promble if you just sat in your own seat instead of theirs. Correct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dronny Owl Posted April 17, 2017 Author Share Posted April 17, 2017 It p1sses me off when part-timers are in my season ticket seat! Or part timers walk up to your ST seat and then tell you that you're sat in their seat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theowlsman Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 If we went back to terracing, I'm sure there'd be someone saying"Oi, you can't stand there, that's where I always stand". They're like that those turnstyle operators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doghouse Daz Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Maybe I do, still it miffs me why grown men can't read tickets and seat numbers properly They can , I always forget mi glasses , and everyone I ask can read mi ticket , probably why I always sit in someone else's seat.

theowlsman Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Before this thread goes much further, can I ask where the stadium is located in relation to Hillsborough Park? Going to look for it later on Google Maps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theowlsman Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 I reckon season ticket holders should be able to take their seats home with them If you're on the large size, you should be able to apply for an extension. As long as your neighbour's don't object. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owl 44 Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 In their defence, I have been potg all season and the gangway numbers and block letters on the tickets do not match with what is on display at the ground (not in North stand anyway). I've rectified this problem by getting a season ticket for next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seriously considered a S/T for next season but work means I was only available for 12 games this season and it's just not worth the extra cost of a S/T I bet they wouldn't be much difference and then you're guaranteed a play off final ticket.

Buxtongent Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 On 17/04/2017 at 07:46, alanharper said: The fans who annoy me are the ones who think that 2:58pm is the optimum time to walk down the gangway steps They are usually seated in the middle of block, and if something happens while they are pushing past, something will happen and they will stop to see before going on. They are also usually the ones who want to go for a sh+t, p++s, or a pint, usually with about 35 minutes played, then have to 'catch their bus', beat the traffic and go out after 80 minutes. Surprising how many of them are wearing stripes as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Just be glad we didn't have the designers of the Ricoh having any input in our numbering scheme......they go 1-29 and then start again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoldGigsChris Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Mostly ST holders near me. The few empty seats don't seem to go on general sale. There's an aggressive, opinionated guy a few rows away that swears and curses our own players and fans throughout every match. My guess is that the club's had so many complaints that they reserves all empty seats near him rather than kick him out. Maybe SAG have made an exclusion zone around him.

I've got 120 points and am a foundation member so actually will get two but I see where your coming from, it would just be my luck to get a S/T and find the majority of home matches are while I'm at work. Sod's law. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurtleyTerrible Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 I love being a part-timer and listening to the ST holders moan about part timers. I get to pick and choose my games, I dont go if we're playing poorly and I get my mates to get me a ticket for any away games I fancy. Its great. You wouldnt knowingly go to the cinema to watch a bad film for 8 quid a ticket so why pay 30 plus? Love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had it a few times and also the aimless wondering around because they can't find their allocated seats! You see this is a dilemma because last Friday at the Cardiff game a bloke with a print at home ticket said to 2 people i think one of you is sat in my seat, to which the bloke of the pairing smartly answered no we are not!, we have season tickets. At which point he promptly pulled out the season ticket only to prove he was indeed sat in the wrong seat If you are going to borrow a season ticket at least get it right.

I've never got why some people get angry-mad about this. Someone has made a mistake. How annoying can it be just having to say 'excuse me pal, you;re in my seat' - Not very taxing is it...
