    PEA, an alternative plan..... buy five additional tickets for R block but make sure that there is a single spare seat left unused... most people buy tickets in two's or more so this spare seat near your friends will probably be empty for the game and you can sit there away from the freebies <ok>

    When I have been in a similar situation the club has allowed me to change my ST seat, so you could get 6 seats as near as possible to your usual seat, they should have suggested this.

    That would be a good idea, AllHell, if I went to the games on my own. But I always take two of my nippers, you see.

    Thank you for the suggestion, though.

    Same. I'm surprised they didn't offer that to you- if they say its something they don't do then call them out on it and speak to the new fella in charge.

    I'm waiting for someone at the ticket office to get back in touch. Hopefully I can get this sorted before the day is out.

    I also mentioned the fact that my son is autistic and that he would certainly not want to change his seat. Routine is so important to my little man.

    No luck at all with the ticket office.

    The club have lost out on a fair bit of revenue because of their inability to be flexible.

    Sitting apart would have negated the whole purpose of going as a group.

    Bah Humbug!

    Send a letter to new Johnny, I'm sure he will want to know about these sort of incidents <ok> after all it has probably cost the Club almost £100 in ticket income alone!

    Here are the stats.

    Q Block holds 560 seats. Today there was a grand total of 37 seats taken in Q Block.

    My row has 28 seats. 7 were taken.

    The row behind has 28 seats. 5 were taken.

    Next to me were 14 empty seats in a row.

    Abysmal, eh?

    Because they reckoned all the seats had been given to schoolchildren and their parents/guardians.

    Out of the 37, just 2 were children.

    Out of the 2, one was mine.

    I did wonder when I looked over to where you sit Ponders and saw even fewer people than normal. Bet the comps were still counted in the attendance even though there were clearly no takers.
