I think that the way they have allocated seats or standing spots for seated members is as follows.
Starting with the 3 middle Gold blocks (D,E&F), allocate spaced out seats to these members in these 3 blocks.
This will then overflow into the Silver blocks, and then into the Bronze blocks and finally into the standing areas in the East & West Stand.
I have moved from Block G to I.
I think people moved to standing areas are normally in Blocks H & I, and B & A
Phil Vievers...Balls...Joan Collins...Try...Orgasmic... RH the living legend.
Two of my group are in C and they're also standing. We've been allocated seats in B from C.
I think they should have just gave seated season ticket holders seats and standing season ticket holders standing. If that means those who usually stand get more tickets, so be it. They could have allocated all the standing tickets - and give the option of those who were unlucky a ticket for the terraces
Without doubt Saints have made a balls of this, they had an indication in February, and knew it was likely five weeks ago, but they've left it less than a week. A lot of the issues could have been sorted if they'd have left themselves a bit more time - firstly they could have done a scoping to see how many people actually want/can attend - instead they just put everyone in. Even if they hadn't have done it, with a bit more time people could have refused the tickets and they could have been reallocated.
Most people accept we live in a world of computers that make mistakes, I know of one lad who's been allocated a different entrance time to his six year old - he knows the steward won't not let them in together, but again it could have been resolved had there been a bit more time
Everything just seems very rushed and panicked
My normal seat is in Block C.
I thought they may have used the seating areas only. With the seats you can distance people but you can't control it on the terraces.
I wonder what arrangements they are going to have at the end of the match. Having used time slots so that fans all don't arrive at the same time, how will they control that when fans leave.
At the end of the day it's most probably out of the club's hands. I guess some public health adviser will have given them a plan or guidance how to deal with it.
There's going to be a lot of "phoning and waving" on Monday
My seat is in E block north stand so the gold section and I haven’t got a ticket for Monday and no one has told otherwise. All this of putting people from standing to seats and vice versa is just crap and totally mis managed. They should have done a ballot for seating and spread between north and south and a ballot for standing spread between west and east. They would have got everyone accepting this and not from what I have been reading putting people into standing who physically cannot stand. And what about all those people who donated last year. No allowances given there either and I was one of them. It’s all a shambles and will come back to bite them.
Booze and beer maybe .
I think you're being a little unfair to the club here. Trying to manage everyone's 'needs' here would have been an administrative nightmare.
I've not seen any post where the person has been moved from standing to seating, just the other way. Correct me if I'm wrong.
I do feel sorry for those few who have been moved to standing but would find that too difficult. I can only suggest that they appeal to the club, perhaps asking for a refund?
In any normal season, if you buy a season ticket, but can't go to a game, you simply lose it.
Here at least you will get a refund if you're not drawn from the ballot.
Whether or not you were able to donate last year shouldn't come into it.
March 2020 since fans where allowed in stadiums and yet we still have folk moaning about going to the game.
I dont have a membership so was never going to get the opportunity to go to any of these games.
But I would walk over hot coals to get to one right now.
Also, The donations for last season doesnt entitle you to any further special treatment this season. It was to keep the club afloat for the 2020 campaign.
Might be an unpopular opinion but hey ho.
Well, we missed out. I just hope that means we're definites for the other two games
I am, normally in north stand but have been allocated standing in east stand, not moaning just glad to be back in watching the super saints,the old pins might suffer but what the hec I will enjoy the game no matter what the score.C.O.Y S.
Its great to be sat down in the ground, lots of noise from the fans when the lads came out in the warm up.
When will we find out about the Hull game on 28/5?
