    The new seats at the bottom of the SEJ stand look a lower rake than the rest of the stand. Maybe it's my eyes.

    That's absolutely correct. Have a look at all the stands and you will see that the rake (angle of the stand) increases the further back you go. And why the Upper GT is steeper than the LGT. If you want a detailed explanation I'll be happy to oblige, I did my dissertation on the design of sports stadia.

    For those of you who are not season ticket holders but have buying history I suggest you visit the official website. In a nutshell they're prioritising sales for those who have been to more than 15 home games since 2012 (approx 1750) and then those who have been to more than 6. Good news for some on here I suspect :)

    He is one player who is destined not to get a warm reception as and when he plays at the Vic in the future, if the rumours about last season are not true he has certainly not put any water on the fire with those comments.

    Well, if he doesn't understand that the new Head Coach (and new staff) might want to assess him for himself which would cause "the goalposts to move" regarding the transfer. Not sorry he's gone. To be fair the Forest fans suggested it may be like this.

    Quite so.

    Good riddance to bad rubbish (McGoooglegun) pretulant arsehole who has proved with his passing remarks that everything said about him was true. Wonder how long before he spits his latest dummy out total waste of space.

    I don't think we should underestimate today's win if the reports are anything to go by. Okay so we should see off a second tier German team reasonably easily but I think given their ambitions and result against Bolton we could be quite pleased and reasonably confident about the progress we're making.

    I think that's about our strongest line-up and would be as bold as to say that's the line-up v Everton other than Gomes in.

    It would be good news except they aren't including the Game of the Century v Leicester which means I only have 5 so until I can get a ticket for one game I remain in group C with the 24,000 others...I called the ticket office last week with some questions and the guy on the phone thought that if you were in group C and on the ball, you should be ok getting a ticket. He seemed to be using Brighton game away as the barometer as to how many from groups A and B would buy. Hopefully can get to one of the early games and move into group B.

    I'm in a not dissimilar position except that I have been to a sixth match that the club failed to register against my number and I can't find the appropriate CC statement to back it up. Annoyingly I've been to three others either corporate or otherwise. 1000 left for Everton and I'll join the scrum on Wednesday morning.

    I have yet to check with the TO, but I think that I'm category B for home games, long distance for away.

    I'm also group B for home games ...sadly it appears we can now only buy one ticket per fan id . I like to go to matches with my girlfriend , so unlikely to get along to matches if this is the case . ..Previously , I have booked the 2 tickets with my id !
    Can anyone shed any light on this ?
    If time I will ring the ticket office tomorrow .

    '63, if your girlfriend's ticket was bought on your ID, then I don't think it will count. I used to get Mini Bloother's tickets on mine before I was advised to allocate to his ID. I'm glad I did otherwise I was advised I would only have been able to get tickets on my booking history. It's also the reason I set up a fan ID for Mrs B too, but she hasn't attended the required number of games.

    But if your history shows two tickets consistently on your ID then it's definitely worth a call to the ticket office. I found them pretty helpful.
