our 1st home game... hope is still high...my mate goes to the food bars to get his son a hot dog..guess what they`ve run out....what with that crap on the pitch and not being able to get what food u want ...this club is a joke from top to bottom...

How about going to take your seat in the Martin Dawes stand, only to find that your seats are already taken, and they have sold other season tickets with the same seat numbers as us.

Luckily we just went and sat on the padded seats at the back, but it needs sorting.

The incompetence really is staggering at times.

The whole club needs clearing out and starting again IMO

Im sure if we carry on as we mean to go on, itll be free soon

Is this one of 2/3 A Status clubs in the British game? Imagine being one of the others!

At this stage, I'd just take a full refund!!!

Mate we had that problem too - we have two season tickets in the North and we took one extra person. Bought a ticket for a seat next to ours. 5 minutes before the game, a family turns up and says the ticket we bought is one of their season ticket seats. Not the first time its happened either.

Another gripe of mine and im sure a few others is the fact that the 'corporate hospitality' guests start spilling out of their rooms or boxes after the game has kicked off. This happens at the start of the first half and also the second.

For someone who sits in the north stand either side of the 'hospitality' seats it is very annoying as it causes a big distraction and sometimes obstructed views as these people find their seats in dribs and drabs.

Why the hell cant the club get them in their seats a couple of minutes before kickoff?

They have a chaperone so there is no excuse.

Like someone else has stated the club seem to value the 'corporate' 'fans' more than the real regular fan.

Also i bet the 'corporate' hospitality venues didn't run out of food, drink or anything else for that matter.

The club needs to sort out all these issues and fast. Maybe greg would like to take a print off of this thread and show it to his colleagues so that they can see how unhappy the average fan really is.

i'd say that's a fair point, i complain about the latecomers from the pub pushing in and disturbing ppl in the southstand, and at theatre's they've got them signs up about not being allowed in till a conveniant point if you turn up late.

If they held a fans forum this week it would be a lot more heated than the last one...

Deal with it! They pay the same ticket price as you and have every right to stand where they want! Just because you're daft enough to show up 2 hours b4 kick off to get a spot doesn't mean everyone else has too!

Its been going on for ages this but last night really took the biscuit.

If they cant drag themselves away from the food and drink to watch the live game then lock the buggers in till half time.

Never mind deal with it! I make sure I get in early to the stadium so I can have a decent view of the game I've paid £17 to see, just for some 6ft drunken idiot swanning in 5 mins after kick off and standing in front of me. It happens every game and it's infuriating.

If you were queuing for something and somebody turned up 5 mins before the doors opening and stod in front of you you'd be mighty annoyed methinks.

I think the problem will get less and less through the season as space becomes more prevalent.

I agree with that, very annoying when you are standing trying to watch the game, and then all of a sudden about 5 6 foot 3 men come and stand infront of you...

It's a shame I'm not going this season

cock that, drunken tosspots turning up after kick off and forcing their way into space that isn't there, barging past other fans with no courtesy or respect and causing them to fall over.

If you want to turn up late, then the stewards should be farming them out to where ever the crowds thinner.

Lets demolish the ground and build a brewery in its place - now that's progress.

Sorry forgot that short, non drinking people had a divine right to watch the game with the best view.

If you want a designated spot sit down! Or stand at the front, problem solved! If not get used to it because your constant moaning and tuting isn't going to stop anyone from standing in front of you, drunk or not drunk!

Very mature, i guess from your comments you're one of said heads that seems to take pleasure from spoiling the match for others.

And you think your post was mature. Pathetic

Nothing immature, I just have better things to do with my time than stand in the ground 4 hrs before kick off watching the poor pre match entertainment.

If I choose to have a pint in that time I can. Being drunk has nothing to do with it! I get fed up of moaning fans thinking they should get the best spot in the house! It’s a rugby game not a theatre as you previously stated.

5 blokes at 6 foot 3 ,
we need to sign them for our front row...

Wire fans are over reacting, you are only 2 games in, this comp is won later in the year.

By a team other than us. At the moment, I can think of twelve who look more likely to.
