    So they've been approaches to buy the club @Park bantam@Park bantam

    However, no offers so he says. Which could mean they're given a price and think sack that off or just waiting to see what division we are in next season.

    This might now put to bed that no one will interested in buy us rubbish.

    They're a nonsense. Reading some of the answers provided I can't tell if they're being deliberately deceitful or just incompetent.

    I admire the fact these people give up their spare time to converse with the club, seems more like house tidying than anything else. They have the club interests at heart but ultimately I'm not sure what their role at the club aims to achieve. The sentiment is good I guess.

    They are being robbed if it is anything like the replacement I have to sit on.

    There's one seat that is allocated to one of my pals where the back is as high as a desk chair and the seat actually tilts down to about a 45 degree slant towards the floor instead of the 90 degree when sat on :joy: unuseable. Really weird set up obviously just a bodge job. Not on really.

    Rhodes getting Sparks to do the talking is just a joke.. Rhodes needs to front up.

    We're not stupid. Vaughan leaving was down to the club. Doyle leaving was down to the club it wasn't up to Bowyer. Bowyer was going to get sacked as it proved.

    Really? I'd have thought that's exactly who they're made for.
    I'm 6'2" and feel like I have my knees around my chin most of the time, such is the small gap between rows. I have my work cut out to not keep kneeing the bloke ahead of me in the back and cracking the bloke behind's knees when I lean back to try and stretch my legs.
    And some of the more recent replacement rows of seats have even less legroom.

    If you’re referring to the lower tier of the main stand, this holds just under 4,300.

    I presume the price quoted was per block rather than the whole lower tier

    I sit in the new "Edin" seats front of main stand, You can sit with knees swung and facing left or facing right but not facing straight forward without inviting major knee surgery,

    My husband is 6’1” he has to spread his legs to get any room, my son is not as tall, but still has no room. In the new seats it sort of raises you up, so then my feet aren’t flat to the floor so my knees go froward, the guy in front is also tall, so he is leaning back to get more room, so I feel squashed in on all sides:( I prefer warmer days, as my winter coat could do with a seat all on its own;)

    I like it up in hospitality, nice seats.. can you get a ST for those seats I wonder?

    Perhaps you can drop them a line and clarify the situation? info@supportersboard.com

    Looking at the list, then it seems to have Skipton Bantams, who I thought had ceased operating on an official basis.

    They do have have 13 ‘groups’ named. https://www.supportersboard.com/about-us

    The mysterious one is ‘independent supporter’!:unsure:

    Not sure if other groups ‘pop up’, as there were Shelf Bantams and White Abbey Supporters but they are not recognised. Perhaps no longer functioning.

    Not sure what the difference is between ‘the Shippers’ and ‘Corn Dolly’, one that is represented (two members) the other isn’t, both essentially transport/coach groups.

    A mere 6’2”! ;)

    I sit in what I feel is an excellent location, having been in every part of the ground, both pre 1985 and the current stadium, apart from the North West Corner. The leg room in the Midland Road is far better, trouble there is the beginning and end of the season when the sun gets in your eyes.

    I am appreciably taller than your husband, yet can grimace through 45 minutes. Whoever designed and rebuilt the lower tier, with the dimensions, should be named and shamed!
