    Anyone know why a load of new Roker End tickets have come on sale?

    Bought my part season tickets earlier yesterday (returning after 7 years!) and now all of a sudden there's a load of roker end tickets.

    Was only odd ones dotted about last night.

    Bit of a mystery Those south stand tickets are never for sale. Rumours on twitter about tickets being cancelled for bad behaviour in south stand. Sounds very unlikely looks to be about 1000 tickets. Would suspect it’s probably an IT problem

    Weird isn't it. Hopefully just a techy glitch and they haven't sold ST seats to other people. Last thing we need is a **** up with the tickets when everyone is buzzing for Saturday

    That’s what I’ve been thinking. Can’t believe they have cancelled season tickets Would be a bit if a PR disaster doing it out of the blue. If they haven’t I hope they aren’t Double selling tickets.

    just thinking I wonder if they don’t normally sell those tickets because of the way fans crowd together at the top of the south stand

    The demographics of the people in that end would lead me to believe a fair few would be on Twitter and haven't had any information from the club otherwise it would be all over the place. Hopefully they get clarification before they turn up on Saturday. Saying that it wouldn't surprise me if it's a simple **** up by ****ty Ticketmaster.

    Aye it’s all very odd because those tickets are also showing for future games.

    has there been any problems recently like? Seen a few vids of the bars but didn’t look owt worth banning people for

    Stewards were checking loads of tickets in the Roker End to make sure people were in the right seats. I spoke to one steward who said it had been reported to the club that people were complaining of 'seat migration' during the game. They were checking them at the bottom of the stairs before people could walk up to their seats.

    I sit in north stand Always noticed loads of empty seats in south stand even though they are always marked as sold on the web site. Loads of people crowd together towards the back. Just wondering if these seats are always left empty for safety reasons But with tickets selling fast may they have put them on sale

    It appears they were seats that were never put on sale 500-700 in South stand for safety reasons
    Due to people crowding together and changing seats.
    Change of plan now crowds are going up.

    can we get 46,000 like the Bradford game i hope i am in the east stand and that is usually near packed, there will be people buying tickets for supporters like the bloke from Newcastle on the radio, but how can he buy them not been a season card holder ? i fancy donating £5 for every goal we score to the Bradley charity.

    We really do have insane support given the absolute **** storm of the last 5 years.

    Genuinely brings me pride. We may not always be a great club, but we will always be a ‘proper’ club.
