No consultation as in 'totally insufficient time to organise a move into a new area and ensuring all parties have had time to co-ordinate it successfully' <ok>

The execution wasn't exactly spectacular but we did actually find out this was definitely happening weeks back.

Maybe it would have been handled better if not for the FA cup run and other stuff delaying the renewals and there was time during the season to organise the move better. But that's life.
 
You gave an answer, and I pointed out where it doesn't fit the question. The FLAG group's views as well as Nick Thompsons are unlikely to have been taken forward based on comments from the club and from the reasons it ceased to be.

Do I read from that you had a hand in pushing the scheme as it is now, forward?

I didn't put the idea forward, but I didn't object to it either, I am of the opinion that sticking the away fans in the corner and putting City fans behind the goal will improve the atmosphere at the KC.

Various other things were also discussed, but were dismissed, stuff like having a drummer and having goal music.
 
Could it have something to do with various independent Tigers supporters boards frequently having threads that criticised the lack of singing and the poor placement of the opposing supporters? I don't see why this OP is posing this question; it seems like a shallow effort to bad-mouth the owners which deflects from the real issues and serves no useful purpose. A bad call IMO, but it is just my opinion.

Where have a bad mouthed the owners? That's your false assumption and slant on it, not mine as I've coincidentally posted before that ^^^^.

The lack of singing's liable to be worse after this. It'll eventually settle due to the fans and in spite of this **** up.

Even if it was a good idea, it's been implemented very poorly.

However, that aside, the real question I'm after being answered is, whose idea was it?[/B] The clue's in the subject title.

If you are saying you are not bad mouthing them, however indirectly, then fair enough; I'm sure you are sincere.<ok>

I guess it's because I have read previous posts, on another thread, where you were active and this was, I thought, adequately covered; it comes across as a contrived criticism. For what it's worth, I think the proof of the pudding . . .
The clue, as with the title seems a tad obtuse. But hey, crack on; let's see if something original comes up. <ok>

So, you don't know how it came about, but thought you'd answer another question incorrectly. Seems about right for you.

Whose idea was this seat move?

Do you deny the possibility that someone might have listened to the supporters, who , some, not all, have had this idea? I have highlighted the only suggestion I made, through means of a question. Why are you so defensive? Enlighten me, which other question have I answered incorrectly?

Struggling to understand your line of discussion here; do feel free to use bold, underline, even CAPS to embellish your confusing posts, as every little helps! You might even explain ' what's about right for me'?<ok>

Well they should be reincarnated (yes I know that's the wrong word but I'm nackered) because just look how well it works for Crystal Palace. Proper fans, proper atmosphere, we should copy them.

That means underage girls cheerleading before kick off anarl.

Get it done.

Where did you get the chance to 'not object' to it? Did you get the chance to point out it would possibly be unpopular with a significant number of people and that other options should/could be considered?

In my view, IF the atmosphere improves it will be in spite of, rather than because of this mess. Hence me wondering who proposed it this time round.
 
Doesn't really answer it. I doubt Steve Bruce initiated anything, he may have been asked about fans behind the goal. Nick Thompson's long gone and AP rejected it in the end.

Still curious as to Whose idea was this seat move?

AP didn't reject it.he was told it wasn't possible by the SAG and others.
 
People can say it's been in the offing for a while however much they want, but the fact is that it's been a sudden demand from the club this week that we move, and that we also pay at the very least a deposit within SEVEN DAYS to guarantee a seat of our choosing.

That's a ****'s trick.

No one disagrees, one week to pay is simply ****e.

A reservation system would have been better.

Can I just say that I do not think that anyone in the ticket office is to blame for this. The chances are that this was just a simple error in planning that was not thought through. But if it was planned to upset E1-3, you lads are seriously ****ed.

And was a date given for it or some kind of timetable for selection of seats/blocks?

Too many polo matches or squash tournaments to organise?

'They can die as soon as they like' ?

I mean, it's not like our owner harbours any malice is it?

Even this week, the situation's far from clear.

I got the chance at the FLAG meeting and I was obviously aware that some people in E1-3 would be pissed off with having to move, but I expect that to be a very short term issue and the stadium to improve as a result of these changes.

Very short term for several long standing fans in our group that won't be renewing because of it. There'll be more to follow too. I doubt the replacements will be arsed to vote no to Hull Tigers.

You've got it badly wrong here OLM

In the renewal blurb it skirts round the fact that we only get the worse half of the north stand rather than the entire stand.

Deceit or incompetent vagueness?

Surely it would have been much better to give us all of the north stand of failing that the eastern side of the North stand?

I look forward to the uproar in N5 as away fans are outed.
