Honestly think those upper tier seats will shift pretty quick once the tickets are released.

what are you talking about, if you'd read the thread you'd see that Bozza has been in contact with Paul Barber and others have rung the club

There's seems to be an awful lot of hand wringing on this thread about whether the club should or shouldn't open the upper tiers. For starters it makes sense for the club to sell out the lower tiers first. If they're expecting a much reduced crowd than normal why open the West and East Upper for what could end up as a "spot the fan competition" , added to that is the cost of staffing with all the necessary personnel.
There is still over a week to go before the game, so there's plenty of time for the club to re-assess the situation dependant on demand for tickets, so unlike like some posters on here, I'm sure the club are in a better position to judge what are the best options.
My opinion on this? It's a little storm in a little teacup. If you want to watch the match then go. It's not as if it's a big drama to get tickets. I normally sit in the West Upper so ideally I would like to retain my seat, but, at present this is not possible. I'm not bothered, I will go to another part of the ground that's available and experience a different view.
Come on people, stop getting your knickers in a twist and enjoy the ride!
As we suffered in the past now we have the amex the club is beyond criticism?
Allowing season ticket holders to buy 4 tickets and reducing prices is all they had to do to get a descent gate.
Job done. Unless there is a major factor the club are not telling us, common sense says open the upper tiers?

No, but people are able to buy tickets if they want to! Just as long as your not some petal that needs to sit in a certain place or can't handle sitting near away fans.

Thanks. Isn't there already an ESU mural that has been used at several recent home matches...?

FUN FACT : Bearing in mind most people would like to go with someone, other than the shitty view areas right next to the away fans there is only one pair of seats left for sale in the whole stadium

Was that the case from day one? Dunno, just asking (for a friend).

I'm surprised that the seat selection software when buying can't be set up so that you can't leave a 'one seat' space gap to the next people unless its the last available seat on that row. I'm sure I've seen it on a theatre booking site, which I assume is to minimise the number of 'single seats' that are left which they struggle to sell due to the same reason - people don't often go to the theatre on their own.
Also - perhaps offer a single seat last minute discount . . . perhaps 25% off if purchasing one of the single seats in the last 24 hours before the game?
