WOLS Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 The Club officially announced on 11 September that the Kop was sold out for the Steel City Derby. But today you can buy loads of tickets for the Kop. What's that all about? Why deceive people? They musthave known there was a plan to release more tickets later (presumably the restricted view seats). I think the Club needs to be more clear about what the hell it is doing!

Guest mkowl Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Probably that following discussions with SAG the capacity has been tweaked upwards hence the ability to subsequently release tickets after the original decision Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post RUMBELOWS91 Posted September 21, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted September 21, 2017 That's what why they're called restricted view tickets- because you can't always see if they're available. 2 1 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S26 Owl Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Not very hard to understand really. The club dont want to sell the restricted view tickets because its not very fair on whoever buys them. So they hold them till the demand is at the highest point possible and release them explaining that they are restricted view seats. The reason they wait is because people could potentially buy tickets, thinking they are normal kop tickets when theyre not, theyre restricted views.

Owl In Black Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 I was always of the impression that DC was purchasing these seats to pump a little cash in. No idea where i had this idea from, probablies read it on here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james o connor Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 My season ticket is classed as restricted view as the left post is obstructing a tiny bit of the pitch . For me it's still a good view. Wouldn't wanna be on the bottom half of the kop as the view is shocking and there are lots of cry babies down there !

OwlsMan1961 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 My ST is classed as restricted view (top left of Kop) but the view is fine, for some reason though the club website stopped letting people buy matchday tickets in the restricted view zones online last season, maybe someone has questioned this policy and it was found to be a technical error on the ticketing website.

WOLS Posted September 21, 2017 Author Share Posted September 21, 2017 Since the club are happy to change the rules as they go on, at what point are they going to announce that the remaining tickets are open for anyone to buy? Clearly Chansiri wants to get as much income as absolutely possible. I note that there is no suggestion of selling Restricted View seats at least a bit cheaper.
