    I'm sure that the club's Director of Ticketing, Marco Townson will have a strategy to avoid such a problem .. just like he did when he ballsed up the ticket allocation for last season's play-off against Carlisle!

    there are about 20 seats available of rows E F and G, not sure how many of them there are.

    10 seats have sold on those rows since Monday

    I can't see anything Rhino Sparkles putting his name to working. He's a parody of a CEO. The football equivalent of David Brent

    Only 5 of those 20 seats have sold in the past 2 weeks so not many of the atmosphere group have moved across yet

    Given the expected rate of ST uptake the club may as well move everyone into the Kop or Sunwin together, as we will barely be selling 7.5k!

    You are assuming the club gives a flying feck about the fans.

    Amazing that out of 15,000 fans they all don't think the same thing

    Absolutely did the club honestly think this ridiculous.move would happen without discontent from life long B Block Bantams.
    They didn't even get consulted, who chose B Block for this unwanted migration?

    Probably picked the block in the downstairs of the kop with the most spare seats

    Lets be fair here. I suspect if given the choice 90% would have agreed to putting them back in the rear of the kop. The stupid thing is putting them in the front of the Kop, nearer the pitch.

    Sounds as though the club didn't have the option of putting them back anywhere upstairs

    I'd go along with that logic @Ulysses S Grant@Ulysses S Grant I'd have thought the logical place would have been at the back of the Kop but many of those who attended the semi final game against Wycombe said the noise generated that game when everyone was sat at the front of the Kop was exceptional, then again it was the game we dominated for almost the whole 90 minutes of the game.

    Drummer will be on Row R in B Block. So naturally more people will congregate around that area.

    More than likely if you’re in front of that row you’ll be fine sitting down. Although if you’re above it there is a chance you may have to stand.

    The stewards could be very busy as we know standing is illegal in a seated stadium, it won't effect me but I can certainly sympathise with those who have sat above the designated area for many seasons and want to continue sitting, another poorly though out situation IMO.

    It is a strange situation that the club are putting themself in. They either tell the atmosphere crew to sit down or tell the stewards officially to ignore any complaints about standing which could go against the safety certificate. Wasn't that bad when there was no one behind them to complain but now they are going to be infront of the end section of the Bantams Bar and one of the disabled sections

    I do have sympathy as I said with those who have sat in those seats for years, some may say they had chance to move seats but that shouldn't be the case, as you say it could put the stewards in a difficult position and seeing how some of the stewards in our area can't even point fans with tickets where they sit in the Upper Sunwin/Morrisons making fans sit down ain't gonna happen.
