why do we let a couple of stewards tell the entire f*cking block to sit us down? they;re a tad bit outnumbered dont you think.

No loyalty from our fellow fans, and seemingly a lot of new people coming in and pissing everyone like you and me off.

At away matches, I'd trust city fans to help me if I got in bother.

At home, there's not a hope.

But it is the truth. 117/116 full of plastics who only sing when we score. Utter crap, I'd say at least 80% of the fans in 117/116 are NOT helpful to the cause AT ALL. They only support the team when they score/win.

I always find it quite amazing that the club is nothing without it's fans, yet the club don't listen to the fans and infact make the experience worse with the stewarding. Why doesn't everyone just stand up? What they going to do? Ban everyone?
Previous poster was right in that it's not down to the stadium itself, it's up to those in it. If 1000 away fans together can make it then surely 20,000 home fans should. Got to get everyone sitting together. Simples

I get on with the stewards by me just fine. Sure they try and get us to sit down now and again but that's their job. Don't feel the need to have an argument with them like I have seen some people do.

If you think its bad this year, wait until next year, the club are really going to enforce the rules and the stewards wont even have to get involved. They will identify you from the CCTV and next time you turn up your ticket will be blocked, watch this space, not saying I agree with it I love it going mental, just telling you how it is. :old:

The 'Rules' are non-existant really. Just a mish-mash of boshed 'regulations' that
are used as and when it suits. Man Utd fans stand at home games, they do not
have their allocations cut for away games. Cardiff City FC are doing everything
they can to turn the f*cking club into a rugby environment. For that reason alone
I'd like Hammam back as

"Atmospherics Director"

Get Macca and Glamorgan Security back.

f**k off Nash, f**k off Jenkins you pair of CoNTS

Lads, I am currently in 117 and I asked the steward last night if there is a deliberate ploy of theirs to try to piss us off so we all move across to the Canton. He of course denied it but I reckon with the prospect of Premier league football for us next season they want to ensure that all of us who want to stand and sing do so in the Canton and not near the away fans. Whats your thoughts on this?

Re: stewards at 117

They have pretty much forced me to the Canton Stand next season. I feel out of place singing in our own stadium. How sad is that

I have basically been told that mate. Also was mentioned that the club want families either side of the away fans when were in the Premiership....'A more family friendly atmosphere'.

Might indicate why a lot more families/kids are being recommended 117 etc as 'family friendly' areas of the ground, rather than the sold out FAMILY STAND.

It feels pretty shitty when you're clearly not wanted by your own club.

it's a tough one. i'm over in the canton at the moment, but im just left of the "unofficial" standing rows. so it all depends on who buys the tickets in front or behind us. we're in a block where people aren't quite sure what to do because we're half standing/half sitting. i invariably get stuck behind a 6footer standing up, but end up feeling guilty about standing so i sit down because i've usually got a small guy directly behind me sitting with his little kids.

however, it's doing my hamstrings and glutes the world of good spending 90 mins every other week doing squats non stop.

That's what is putting me off the canton mate, the lack of clarity - my parents got tickets there last night with a view to standing (row r, 105) and everyone was sitting :(
