THE CONCRETE ROUNDABOUT (TCR)

I'm boycotting the game.

"Shut the fuck up, you sausage!"

There was an above average crowd there today, had the game meant anything I think there would have been an above average atmosphere.

You need bums on seats and something to shout about for an atmosphere. The game should mean enough to get people shouting on 9th, but if the bums aren’t on the seats….

If this has been planned to look better on the telly, are Sky only using one camera from the gantry of the west stand so the viewers won’t see the empty west stand?

Didn't you say earlier in this thread "shut the corners"?

Not the first person in this thread to say that, and that is one of the reasons we struggle to build our fan base.

Willing to miss the most important game of the season because you can't sit in you usual seat.

We go to some away grounds and struggle to see all the pitch, yet in our stadium the view is great wherever the seat is.

Does it really matter where you sit?

It does really. I like where i sit and I had to pay a considerable sum to do so for me and my lad. Now for thr biggest game of the season it’s not available, basically for some vanity optics nonsense.

The struggle to build the fanbase is partly down to pissing off sections of the paying support we do have at various times.

Decided to come back.

I disagree.

I also like my seats, I sit with my grandson and several friends every game. However, our seats are not available for certain cup games and won't be again for this.

Will it stop me going, definitely not.

You aren't everyone.

Ah sorry, this was a bit of a joke for those who know me personally like Dan. I won't be attending due to the 28 hour flight from NZ, however I'd have been rather pissed off if I was still about attending games.

Id never boycott a game due to seating options but yes it does matter where I sit. I'd say there for over a decade. I enjoy the view, my parents who attend feel comfortable, I enjoy chatting to the chap I've sat next to for years, I enjoy being able to climb out for a pint before half time without disturbing anyone. I've sat there and frequently objected to closing the corners because I enjoyed my home game experience there. Whilst I do understand the intentions of the club with the decision I think trying to encourage more casual fans and friends of supporters with ticket promotions and better advertising would he a better method than moving a few hundred people out of the corners.
