FAMILY STAND QUERY

Tue May 14, 2013 3:10 pm

I can't be the only one in this predicament, my boy will soon be classed as an adult, what happens when it comes to replacing our season tickets in a couple of years if it's a sell out, can any see a way around it? :?: :?:

Second thoughts. Just thought this through properly. Please ignore earlier suggestion as it is cheaper to pay the adult price, than produce and raise a replacement. :ayatollah:

Gwyn there are still over 1500 seats within the "Home" area so you get to chose which of the available seats you want to move to. There will always be a % of seats which will be available so the same will apply in a couple of years.

How old will you be in 2 years time because you may be able to get a Family Stand ST in your own right.

Well if he is 60 he can get in under a concession. Maybe his lad can take him in.

I guess this could be a problem for the club, as they currently have a supposidly full family stand that I guess over the next few years the 'child' will be too old.

Supposing we stay in the premiership I guess a very high number of these will be looking to renew in other areas

A good "problem" to have. But if we stay in the PL, then the ground will be extended, so probably it will not be a problem anyway. :ayatollah:

I'm in the same situation myself. My youngest is 16 this year so next season is our last in the family stand. I phoned the ticket office to ask for confirmation before renewing our season tickets. I was told that there are no guarantees, they said I will 100% not be able to renew in the family stand but I would not necessarily get tickets in another part of the ground if they have sold out.

Doesn't seem like a fair way to reward people who have stuck by the club through thick and thin. I'm banking on the extra seats going in!
