    I feel her pain. Daily chasing of GPs for stuff is tiresome at best, especially when some surgeries are so efficient

    And the facilities are poor. All in all there are about a couple of hundred seats with a decent view in there and that is it

    Stop trivialising the fact that people want to sit in their preferred seat around friends and family.
    And let’s not pretend that every seat in VP offers a good viewing experience.
    The upper West stand is god awful with zero connection to the game especially if you are above the first 10 rows.
    Same with the upper Kop.
    TL Dallas is a complete no no.

    so unless you can secure a batch of available seats in the lower tiers or to front of the upper tiers, it’s a shit show

    It shouldn't be the problem its turned out to be and as you say communication or a complete lack of has caused this. But then lack of communication usually causes every cockup in any business, its not the fault of anything else. I never do anything quickly so didn't get caught up in snapping tickets up as others did. But then i've only got my own ticket to get and i haven't sat in my own seat all season. And neither do i sit in the Midland road so really it doesn't affect me at all. I just get frustrated when i see a lack of professionalism that causes problems that shouldn't be there. And that the people who have caused it seem so blaze about it to a point where they think they've done nowt wrong.

    Having gone to Rochdale and Crewe, I would rather sit next to people I know.

    Not sure I would possibly want to be next to some Foul Mouthed, Coked up, Smoke/Flare user!

    I am really starting to be worried for this country , if people get so bothered that they can not sit in their preferred seat.
    Plenty of seats in the North west corner.
    Yes it is trivial compared to the war in Ukraine or our academy coach dying at the age of 55 from cancer the other day.
    Especially this week.

    You have a point, but when attending away games, you never know who will be next to you.

    couldn’t make it up if you tried

    I have been in the TL Dallas once. Versus Sheffield Wednesday in 1997. I have no desire to return.

    But then anything would be trivial to people dying. Even on a small forum like this we've had a number of people who have had to go out of their way down to the stadium to sort out what should have been a none event.

    On a second reading of the post I agree, I had misread it and the first bit of my post has been answered by the CEO: The primary reason for all of this was to put home fans in the Dallas stand. I hope it has been worth it Ryan. Apologies.

    Folk actually having to pay full price will put a lot of the Johnny come lately's off. Playoff figures are usually quite a bit lower

    I seem to recall only about 14,000 for Fleetwood. Their support was embarrassing.
    Don't think they filled the top tier of the Bradford End.

    Weird kick off times and games on Sky tend to hit attendances.

    All I want to do is get my normal seat with four others in our usual seats, which is in the Main Stand. Nothing flash. Not relocating. Not trying to get tickets changed. Arguably the most straight forward type of purchase. Happy to pay the money. Why oh why is it so F***ing hard?
