| Quote ="gutterfax"sorry. I must pay more attention to the crowd, stewards and away fans than to the game........
I buy walk up tickets. I am not particularly pleased with the selection of seats left when I get there an hour before KO, but what the hell, these are the chances i take and choices I make.
There are appx 1,150 ST holders, leaving about 3,000 seats to choose from if you book on line or over the phone.
AA, AB, AH and AJ are the cheap seats, with AA and AB for the away crew. That's 1,000 seats at 500 a block. So, with 2,000 seats left to fill 1,000 being Jester, the rest premium, there is always a chance that you won't get seats together in prime position. This is not the clubs fault. To the poster who can't commit until match day, you can still call up in the morning and collect your tickets when you arrive.
I can see the point being made about openeing the North for Away fans only......but I refer you back to my observation regarding SKY, the request they made and the £1,200,000 that the club receives.
FWIW, on the club site, the Jester seats in AA, AH ans AJ are pretty much gone, so loads of walk ups may get a nasty suprise when the roll up and get asked for £25 notes instead of the £15 they expect to pay.'"
I love how you have made a total idiot of yourself and are still desperately trying to defend your ridiculous posts
You must pay more attention to the crowd? Its not difficult to look left and right and work out which stands are open.
The rest of the rubbish you come out with about finances is 100% IRRELEVENT as the stands are open anyway.
Feel free to keep digging though

1- away fans were behind the goal - we moaned it gave them an advantage
2 we moved to Lexus and they moved to the east stand - people moaned about having to sit in expensive seats.
3 we move back - everyone complains that the view is rubbish - get over it you spoiled noob the view is fine.
4 We complain away fans arent behind the goal.
our fans are idiots'"
I think you are worse than GF
Who moaned about away fans being behind the goal?
Who complained about having to sit in expensive seats?
Well done for spectacularly missing the point on number 3.
And number 4 well done, you are finally grasping it

Neither of these is an ideal situation, as has been pointed out that some "newbies" will pay the £15.....but not the £25.
I also freely admit to not being fully up to date with what is open to all and not, with regard to the south/north stand and will happily be guided by those who know what is what.

Sky have asked us to fill one stand. We will be able to fill one stand if we allow for new people to come to the match. If we want to rely on away fans filling up the stand for the next 3 years then its a waste of time and there will be no more club. Simple as that.

Your reponses yesterday and today show a lack of understanding, it's not a sweeping statement anyone reading your posts on this thread will see you have missed the point completely so how can you then want to go on and represent anyone else?
oh yes I forgot you are the 'offical' mouthpice of the club come on, your not even a season ticket holder, a part time attende at best. Yesterday you were telling posters what to post, no one's allowed to make a negative point cos your nose is all brown. Get over yourself. Oh yes and of course general statements on potential trouble were directed soley at you.
But it does help thanks about as much as your comparison of Tescos and Quins very abt, what's your porblem with Tescos Logo? oh no, don't tell me you applied to be CEO of Tescos too and they turned you down despite you having to take a pay cut, never mind the country pile and multimillion pound flat that come with the job would have been a step down from your gaff in Brentford no doubt.
Talking of andwind how did you get on trying to get 700 supporters to fork out 60 quid each?

OK...I will bite.
I may not be worth 1% of the fans who have over the years done their best to keep this club afloat and I may well be an opinionated to55er at times, but, What I am is someone who saw a game of Rugby League, got hooked and then since then, have done what I can to help the club in general.
Unlike some, who simply bitch, I try to do my bit, other than just offer opinion about what should be done.
Maybe your angst comes from me not replying to this wonderful and hilarious post on the wales bus thread: (BTW....bus paid for now)
Quote ="nnl01"Can you pick me up at my house?
If so I'm in too, although I would normally make my way to Twickenham for a game I feel as you will be going by within 20 miles for £15 you should pick me up.
I'm sure those already booked on the bus will not mind yet another detour.'"
Tell you what...you continue to snipe away on what you think should be done (right or wrong I will add), and do SFA.......it really helps. No, Honest, it does.
As for me being the clubs mouthpice (sic) (nice by the way), do me a favour. I am on nobody's christmas card list at the club and out of sheer professional respect decided not to attack while the club was in transition.
Of my thousands of posts, I would guess that 90% have been slagging of the club.
As for me applying for the job at Quins...I did so, fully expecting to not even get past the CV stage, but again, I threw my hat in the ring, unlike some. And yes, if you really are interested, I would have taken a cut in income if I had got the job. By the way, just because I own a flat in Brentford, doesn't mean I am not successful......just that I am settled in a particular area.....but then again, generalisms are what you are good at
As for representing anyone...I don't. I wanted to get some idea of SOLUTIONS before recommending that maybe a group representation was sent to the club.....but you carry on being a pr1ck........it's what you're good at.

Oh didums! Whats the emoticon for having your bottom lip out wobbling? Is that why you completely missed the point of this thread because I dared to post something on your Wales bus thread. I think you must misread my posts on purpose, no one can be that stupid.
BTW I actually think you are to be congratulated on that, trully, the post on the wales bus thread was at those supporters that think as they are paying a meazily 15 quid to go to wales you should be going all round south east england to pick them up. Well Done
But the same does not apply to your comments on this thread.
You don't know me so therefore you have no knowledge of what I do or don't for the club. There are probably lots of supporters out there helping the club out on a regular basis they just don't need to announce it on here!

Yes I am miffed by your continued sniping.....and why wouldn't I be? As for harping on about what I do for the club....tell you what...I'll just stop doing it then (the things I do, not the harping ). If I choose to blow my own trumpet, what damage does that do to you? If you are helping out, well done.....I wish more were like you and helping out, but do not think for a minute you know me. I am a passionate RL fan and therefore, I not only vent my spleen on these boards but also to the club (on a regular basis)
Hey...what do I know.....you are obviously well connected at the club and I bow to your superior Knowledge.......
Good luck assidting with the future marketing, away trips, fund raising and other initiatives with the club. I will tell them you are taking over

again...I you start off so well and then revert to type.
As for connections.....I have none. I have like minded individuals who keep in touch, but no connections. I do not, have any connection with the company at all in any professional capacity.
Lastly, disagree all you like......but remember, I am in sales. Even if I am wrong, I am never wrong and will never ever ever admit to being even slightly wrong.

IIRC It was the club that gave the reason that the low roof made the away fans sound noisier (not our supporters complaining) when announcing the North Stand would close after the 2006 season, but three stands had been open in that season and both the side stands were open after that.
If enough stewards are present to cover the possibility of at least one end needing to be open (and we'd look pretty silly if 4,000+ turned up and the gates had to be locked because the extra stand couldn't be opened for safety reasons) why not just open that end anyway? Surely that's not going to make the East Stand look so empty that Sky will get upset? I'd have thought the main issue there was having most supporters opposite the cameras, not underneath them. A loose arrangement of having home fans along the side and away fans behind the goal, with each having the option to go in the other stand, worked well enough at Griffin Park for several years.

I have to agree. It looked really strange at the Warrington game with an end stand open with a handful of spectators in (mainly the kids from the half time parade). If having one end stand open is going to continue to happen, then it would be good if the away fans could move to the South or North and have all home support in the Etihad Stand.
