It’ll be difficult to steward potentially 4,500 thousand Town fans to their seats. You might get the odd Karen that wants people to move so they can get in there seat but allocated seating can potentially kill atomosphere at times so hopefully it’ll be a free for all.

The problem is, if you're a group of people who've bought individually but normally sit together, you'll naturally congregate with your mates, allocated or not allocated. Hence specific seats always falls into disarray.


I've wasted my life in black and white, a pathetic act for a worthless cause

That’s all well and good but I’ll be with my wife and kids and don’t know how early we can get there. If we turn up 15 minutes before kick off I think it’s reasonable to expect my four seats together. Bought mine at the end of the rush so expect to be in a top corner somewhere anyway!

Hopefully it’ll all work out and I expect the atmosphere to be good regardless.

I would think, with Southampton being a PL club and having sold out away ends every week, that allocated seating will be enforced to some degree.

I think we’ve got 9 separate blocks allocated to us (40 to 48 ), some naturally more appealing than others. It’s going to get quite messy if you’ve got large groups of people randomly trying to access sections which may or may not be already full.

Frankly I’d pay good money not to sit with my mates, but I can understand that families will want to sit together. As of this morning, we’d sold almost 90% of our allocation so there won’t be banks of spare seats for people to find.

Fairly sure Palace and Chelsea were allocated seating. I’d be surprised if this was any different, personally.

Its not Blundell Park, every seat has a good view.












PS. if anybody sits in my seat I will set Mrs Grantham Mariner on them, believe me you don't want that.

I’m disabled and my seat isn’t in the disabled section as there isn’t enough. My seat is accessible though from the stairs that come into the stand easy enough, I’ll need that seat not one on row OO or NN as they’ll be to many stairs. I hope people will be reasonable.

So it appears that some people on here just sit in any seat they fancy, wonder if they do the same at the cinema, or on an airplane?
