    Then bugger off, you won't be missed.

    Your continued tantrum over this is embarrassing for a grown man. First off you were whinging that anyone else but you should be moved, proposing futile alternatives such as a ****ing scaffolding entrance to the west upper for away fans FFS. Whinging that the club would look after it's corporates first as if they don't pay 3 or 4 times more for their ticket. <doh>

    Now this. A prolonged temper tantrum revolving in circles with you splurging the same **** repetitively despite being given your answers over and over because you're too busy screaming after your dummy to hear the answers your given, and too ignorant to take them on board anyway.

    You are a petty man and a total ****.

    You can die now, if you want.

    Just read through this entire thread, and its this post ^^^^^ here where someone finally has something sensible to say. Cheers Hatty.

    Some people just don't like any change at all, although I'll admit its funny that Dutch is trying to pick a fight with OLM over it. Even after he's had a few responses, he's pulling his usual ****.

    If this had been announced before now, it would have been appalling PR again from the club, before our biggest game ever (complaints led by Dutch), if nothing was done at all, we'd be seeing moaning about the crap atmosphere inside the KC, led by Dutch, so yeah, doesn't really matter what they do, or don't do, Dutch and his ilk will moan, complain, then construct circular arguments where he ignores anyone trying to debate, and accuses everyone of not having anything to say, whilst ofc, saying nowt.

    Normally I'd be sad at anyone deciding to stay away, but anyone prepared to stay away because of this is no loss, and you should consider sticking by your mates and following their lead Dutch. Don't let the scaffolding hit you on the arse on your way out.

    Are you an Allam Marine employee on nights?

    The best solution would have been to tuck the away fans in N1 to N4, almost out of sight of the cameras and next to the corporates. As it is they are still behind the goal, we will still see visiting players rushing over to celebrate with their blocks of fans in N6,N7 & N8.

    Steve Bruce and the players want a better atmosphere and have been told to say this will bring it. We'll see.

    Change is neutral. Better is good , worse is ****.

    I question the motives, timing, implementation and effectiveness of this - as I don't trust the club to tell the truth or act in the best interest of the fans.

    Atmosphere like Palace? Do me a favour their fans are embarrassing Continental wannabes with all the chants, flags and ideas copied from foreign clubs. Wavy Davy Nigels who are cringeworthy. Our atmosphere, however poor, will always have more integrity and honesty than their choreographed sham.

    Moving the fans to N1-4 would be utterly pointless, they'd have exactly the same amount of the North as have now, just switched from the right to left and there's no corporates at the end of the West.

    The corporates are in the middle of the West, the ends of the West are just normal season ticket holders.

    It's also not true that Bruce is doing what he's told, he got the right raving hump last season when we had a penalty at the North Stand end and behind the goal were all away fans, he believes it puts us at a disadvantage and needs sorting.

    I can obviously understand the anger from those who are being forced to move, but I absolutely believe it's being done for the right reasons.

    I also accept that it's been handled very badly.

    Why couldn't we just send the away fans to the west upper and throw up some scaffolding for them to get in and out?

    Chazz, really. So far, has been a mature thread with well formulated opinions and no infantile bickering, there's no need to add a childish element.

    Your insistence on endlessly repeating your question, a tactic that has moved from pedantic to moronic, simply shows how badly the thread was constructed, conducted and intended.

    It is now clear that you were not after whose idea it was, but more specifically after who made it an operational reality and who failed (in your opinion) to object to it. You were given answers to the childish question you asked, but you did not have the mallam to ask the right question to promote the blame-game you enjoy boring us with.

    I agree with everyone, not just you, that it might have been handled better, but it wasn't. There wasn't a whole lot of time to get organised for FA Cup ticket purchase, but 25,000+ folk got on with it. It's unfortunate for those who see the change as a big inconvenience or a poor change of seating, but i do wonder if the difficulties are as insurmountable as they are being made to appear. Unlike you, DMD, life's not perfect,

    As for it not making a difference, or if it does it will be down to the fans (I think that is your view?), isn't that the whole point of the move, give the fans the impetus (that has been asked for) to create an atmosphere more befitting a football game?

    A poor thread, deliberately spun out, by you, to do no more than apportion blame in your NIMBY argument and the sad thing is, you couldn't even post the right question. <laugh>

    Hey Dutch. I was in a predicament last season. They made the south the family stand on impulse, so now it's full of young kids. I instantly wanted to move out and the club said ok, I can do once they've processed the renewals, they said there's a week or two to get moved before they go on sale to new applicants.

    Sorted.

    Except I got completely shafted, they accepted new applicants at the same time as taking the renewals and by the time the period they'd permit me to move in came around the new applicants had taken all the sizeable spaces and there wasn't a group of four seats left vacant anywhere in the stadium for us to move to.

    I've spent this season sitting on my hands and having to feel utterly ashamed the odd occasion I lose control of my tongue and yell "I HOPE YOU ****ING DIE YOU CORRUPT BIASED ****" at the referee. It's very embarrassing and shameful sitting back down and seeing parents and 5 year olds looking at me with their jaws so low they're scraping the floor and hearing the comments of disapproval, but sometimes I get lost in the moment and it just comes out. Obviously it wouldn't be a problem if the club hadn't lied to me and shafted me off in favour of new applicants.

    So I'm ****ing glad that you lot are all getting shafted because I might be able to escape the crèche because of it. You're not the only ones to be shat on last minute by the club.

    Now you can die, if you want.

    Pitting them in N1 to N4 is better than N6 etc as they are less visible on tv.

    Putting them in last corner blocks of W and the first few blocks on the N is the optimum solution. In this way they are even further in the corner, less visible and able to influence the ref.

    Away fans will still be influencing the ref/game next season from their new location. Will our 'noisy' fans tucked away our of sight of the cameras ? Maybe the rest of the ground could step up to the plate and get behind the team, Unreasonable request, I know.

    What a shame folks in E1 to E3 were not balloted or consulted so that they could have a say in all this.

    Draw your own conclusions with a man who refuses to use our official name on the renewal blurb.

    What you on about? Read my post. I'm not even talking about Allam. You're so obsessed with thwarting those who rebel against the great Allam regime that you don't even notice when we're not talking about him.

    It obviously isn't a plot, I just don't think it's going to work and hasn't been thought through properly.

    The responses to a simple question and the way the change has been implemented come down to:

    1. I've been shafted so its alright for you to be shafted. To me it shows a lack of respect for our supporters. Mr Hat was treated like he doesn't count and so have a large number of supporters in E1 to E3.

    2. It doesn't affect me so why are you moaning? I suspect they would have said the same to Mr Hat last season and will say the same to the next set of supporters adversely affected by change. Unless, of course its them.

    3. Time to take some personal revenge for something DMD has done, or thought to have done, in the past.

    For me the question asked is very straightforward. Is the change coming about because the old FLAG pushed the club to put the away supporters in the North East corner? Has there been continued lobbying for it last season by those involved in the old FLAG and others? If the answer to that is yes then what efforts did they make to ask the supporters concerned for their opinion? E1 to E3 is not an homogenous block, all standing and singing. A number sit and applaud politely for most of the match.

    If the club thought our views were important they could have called a meeting and explained what they wanted to do and tried to accommodate the majority of those affected. Not everybody could have attended but people have friends, mobile phones and e-mail facilities to get their point across.

    I'm quite happy with the move. But it's the way it's been done.

    We've had no warning and a week to sort everything out. I accept they've had a lot on there plate in the last two months.

    They should of release there idea in January.

    We're so farcical of the pitch, it's unreal. We may have a Premier League team, but we're bottom of the Championship off the pitch.

    Where have our noisy fans been this season then?

    This perception that E1 to E3 are loud is just plain wrong.

    This move might be for the greater good because as it stands the support from everywhere in the ground is rank

    East stand included.

    I had to move three times in three seasons. As a grown man and with other far more important things in my life I just cracked on.

    I even had to move to an unpadded seat for one season and I'm back in general population now. I can 't begin to tell you how that makes me feel.

    <wah>

    Life is so cruel.
