Big Stan Hibbert Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 Can somebody help me out please? Is this block unreserved? I had stewards asking me and my daughter to move to our designated seats yesterday because somebody who had arrived later, couldn't find a spare seat. If I had moved, obviously our designated seats would also have been taken and this would have continued until everybody in E block had moved to the seat number on their ticket. I want to avoid having the same discussion with stewards next game if poss! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pickle Rick Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 As seats are sparce, more often than not, you're best off sitting in your allocated seat(s). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cap flinger Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 It's unreserved so sit/stand where you like. The block is undersold so should never be full. I wouldn't have moved! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't have a ticket for that block, then why should you feel obliged to sit/stand there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cap flinger Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 If you don't have a ticket for that block, then why should you feel obliged to sit/stand there? I think the guy means sit in his designated seat within E block, but yeah if you don't have a ticket for E block then you shouldn't be there.

Big Stan Hibbert Posted January 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 All three of my tickets are in E block, but I always get there early and sit in Row A so that my two young children can see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sodburyred Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 Yes it's unreserved. We have been asked to move about 6 times this season and refused. This time someone was sat in our regular area so we sat somewhere else. 2 minutes before the game same stewards telling us to move. We gave him our tickets and said go find our seats then. This may have been why you were asked. Once the game had started the one bloke "who's seat "we were in just sat in a different one so all was sorted. Does my head in if you want a certain seat get there early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sodburyred Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 Thanks mate. I'll ask the club. Just wanted to check whether my understanding was correct. The way we view it is we bought it as unreserved. I rang up and confirmed it was unreserved. We then have 1 steward who seems to think it's unreserved unless someone asks for their seat. The mind boggles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordie Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 There was a lot of people with paper tickets in there yesterday I thought it was season ticket holders only ion this blockI thought that also but I have managed to buy tickets in there for. 4/5 games for my boy, done it online and there is only ever a few seats available in there tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carey 6 Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 A few came up looking for their seats yesterday only for everyone to tell them that you sit where you want up here, the club obviously sold tickets up there yesterday and the result was it being rammed on the stairways & in the rows again.

red84 Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 Plenty of noise coming from E block yesterday though. Sounded great from where I was. Seemed ground was fairly quiet today apart from E block who at least were trying. 2nd half much better all round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cowshed Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 Can somebody help me out please? Is this block unreserved? The majority of the block is unreserved. The rows in front of the railings are not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cider red Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 I had a half argument with some bloke with a paper ticket telling me I was in his seat. A) I thought it was sts only, otherwise why did I que on a sunday morning in may. And b) it is unreserved. Dunno why the club are selling tickets in this area, or maybe people are straying to the wrong block? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People with paper tickets wanting to sit in their allocated seat, where are these tickets coming from? I was under the impression E block sold out in one day.

I was sold tickets on the basis that E block is unreserved. The rows up to the wall are A and B, of E block. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordie Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 Like I said earlier you CAN buy tickets for Williams singing, as like many on here I thought it was for season tickets only but it's not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only think people handed season tickets back (change of circumstances etc), a few have been banned and some season ticket holders have probably transferred out. It would be good if people were warned when buying tickets that it was unreserved and also likely to be standing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
