    Can other city fans stop other city fans sitting with each other at home games if there are part of the LGBT community?

    I don't understand what you are getting at Matty. At home games, doesn't your ST or match ticket designate where you or anybody else should be sitting? That applies whether you are LGBT or not.

    If you have a problem with not being able to sit in your designated seat, why not simply speak to a steward at the time? Or is it that you have an issue with sitting next to LGBT supporters?

    I know what LGBT means, but the question makes no sense

    mare you asking if people of the same sex can be stopped from sitting together? Then no, as long as they have the appropriate tickets to sit next to each other. If their tickets are not next to each other then same as everyone else they may be asked to be move to their correct seat.

    Maybe he wants someone from another seat to sit with him and had short shrift from the appropriate seat holder? The answer to the question is yes, why should you have to move your seat to allow two people to sit together, whatever community they're from.
    Other than that I'm at a loss about what he might mean

    The club is making the Bradford End gay only if that helps mate.

    If the person in between has a ticket for that seat then tough, whatever your sexual inclination or whether you identify as a person or a fridge.

    Fair enough. In which case, no. Doesn't matter to me who sits next to me. I think I am 'gay friendly'

    Come and sit next to me.

    No they can't say that. Anybody who has this view in the 21st century needs ridiculing for the utter crettin that he or she or whatever they identify as is. My brother is gay and I'd like to think that he and others like him are welcome to sit wherever they want without fear.

    no they can not. If they want to move that is up to them but they can not force you to move as long as you and your partner both have tickets next to each other.

    if it does happen then report it straight away either to a steward or via the text number

    Essentially no matter what your sexual orientation - or ethnicity for that matter - there should be no problem sitting next to others. At the end of the day, everyone is there to watch a football match and enjoy supporting the same team together.

    Others have no right to tell you or anyone else to move due to sexual orientation. As others have said, tickets are designated to a seat and that is your rightful place.

    In that case Matty, nobody has the right to ask you to move mate.

    Easy to report someone as majority of fans are season ticket holders, assuming this happened to you at Valley Parade

    my suggestion would be find the text number, if you can, on the website and just text every time. Don’t get into arguments, just let the stewards deal with it.
    It will either stop or they will get kicked out, either way is a result

    If they have genuinely told you that they won't sit next to someone who is gay then they should be banned from the ground.

    @Matty H BCDFC@Matty H BCDFC if you have the City app, go to the Home page and click on the bubble at the bottom of the page. The confidential matchday number is there to txt a complaint about the behaviour of others. It's 07949 814243
