Middlesbrough seating/standing

[BensGrandad]

I cannot stand for the whole game, but when I get to any away ground, I ask a steward if I can move to a front row. It's never failed.

Edit to correct autocorrect

I will try that for a seat if needed. Is that how to correct the title not that it means anything to me.

 

[BensGrandad]

All well and good but perhaps at the expense of someone who played by the rules that had been laid out quite clearly.

I didnt ask any favours just when I could apply and was told by buying ST and cup tickets I qualified was I to argue?

What cup tickets?

 

[Tim Over Whelmed]

I've got my ticket, my lads tickets a couple of days later and the wife's after that, so I'm really hoping it's not allocated!

Mfc stewards will not move people from wrong seats. As for standing the South stand (home end) stands every match for full 90mins without a single ejection. If anyone has any questions just pm them or ask on here.

Hi, so the away fans are left alone to stand without stewards getting the arse?

Just have a feeling the stewards will be under strict instructions for this game only to make the away end as unpleasant and quiet as they can....

That was the answer they gave when I asked about my eligibility I wasnt going to push it once they said I could buy them then.

How many fans do you think actually take notice of stewards? Stand your ground and they leave you alone, unless the person behind you is unable to stand - if that's the case offer to swap with them

I remember a few grounds being OTT. Namely Forest and Southampton....

Assuming BG got tickets in the 1050 and under bracket he could have got the required points if he had gone to all the home cup and play off matches in earlier seasons

2015/16 NIL
2014/15 2 home = 40 points so 20 points in 15/16
2013/14 4 home = 80 points so 20 points in 15/16
2012/13 3 home = 60 points so 8 points in 15/16
2011/12 5 home = 100 points so 6 points in 15/16

Therefore 1054

That appears to answer bhanutz query as to my eligibility. I am not sure how far back the qualification period goes but whatever it is I will qualify on the time spent as a supporter and STH, well before the end of the Goldstone, at a guess about 40 years STH.

l

Title should read standing but not sure how to correct it.


How do I do it please?

Fixed.

Edit post - go advanced

Sunderland was another. Stewards and police were dragging fans out.

Fair enough, but its your first away game in years and you have emailed the away club and essentially put them on guard to make sure everyone sits in their allocated seat? Nice one!

 

[KingstonSeagull]

Charlton away end was fully sold out. Being as in most places people actually stoof up in the half way up the stand bit and around us we had around 4-5 people sharing 2 seats id say not many were in there actual seat.... And all was fine in the world

Was about 15 speare seats round me....

exactly - packed where people wanted to be together, empty in other areas, everyone was happy!

That's my concern for this - will the away fan stewards be over active in trying to p!ss us off all game, enforcing sitting down and seat allocation? would be a horrible way to spend an already stressful game
