    Wait until we have a bad season and the seat will be available again.

    Paul Barber - ID checks of fans at away games?

    Sure, but in that case there was no need to make an announcement in the first place. They could have quietly gone about the business of banning trouble makers by using the small print.

    Yes, me. I am unaffected by the new rules but that does not mean I support them.

    Paul Barber - ID checks of fans at away games?

    It might help if we knew what flexibility in which part of the rules the club will be applying. There are many cases on here of fans not seeking to take advantage but simply using an otherwise empty seat to take family members. Similarly it would be good to get some clarification of whether we...

    Paul Barber - ID checks of fans at away games?

    Yours is a very good example of the unintended consequences of this new policy. I think it absurd that the club could consider preventing your sister in law attending with her husband whilst you recover from illness.

    No issue with the concept just the enforcement method. I will show ID to the police and even perhaps at a turnstile if required but I will not show it on demand to anyone else. Perhaps I have misunderstood the club's intention with regard to enforcement.

    Even the ones who live near Rotherham ? It's a can of worms this subject (memories of Beach Hut/Ernest and the West Ham fiasco). The club's formula is straightforward and easily understandable.

    Paul Barber - ID checks of fans at away games?

    There's no right or wrong on this issue. The club can choose how to allocate tickets in a number of ways, none of which have moral superiority over the others. The club are choosing to make away ticket allocation a perk of buying a season ticket.

    Paul Barber - ID checks of fans at away games?

    Having read the thread there are clearly longstanding supporter families who will be adversely affected and this will have been taken into account and presumably deemed unimportant. Nevertheless I can understand the club's logic although personally I will not be producing ID to football...
