Just bagged 2 , selling like Mrs Miggins hot cakes ......Tues at 3pm will be busy !!
you are expected to sit.In the family stand are you expected to sit during game or just to be considerate if others around you need to sit?
Yes, I'm a constant campaigner for more windows with narrower gaps, but "pEoPlE wAnT To SiT tOgEtHeE"Dropping it to 1300 TAPS is way too large a gap.
They've fecked up here IMO.

I fully agree. But while people moan about not being able to sit next to people with fewer TAPs....Well thats crap if its for people to "sit together".
Someone on 1699 having to compete with people on 1301 is nuts at this stage IMO.
Pies, surely??Just bagged 2 , selling like Mrs Miggins hot cakes ......Tues at 3pm will be busy !!
No.Will another block open for sales ?
That’s ridiculous it doesn’t exactly look great does itWas thinking the same thing. Looks like around 550 seats for “family friendly”. Surely way too many?
I’m hoping the same won’t apply for somewhere like Chelsea. Just silly! Would love to know the reasoning for this..That’s ridiculous it doesn’t exactly look great does it

Going out on a limb but I reckon it's cos the club think 550 seated tickets are needed for kids and OAPS based on the sales data from times past.

If I've understood it correctly the majority of the tickets left seem to be in the seated section, which suggests 550 is way above what is needed for this fixture?Going out on a limb but I reckon it's cos the club think 550 seated tickets are needed for kids and OAPS based on the sales data from times past.
I bet they all go tomorrow in about 3.5 minutesIf I've understood it correctly the majority of the tickets left seem to be in the seated section, which suggests 550 is way above what is needed for this fixture?
Yes because they will be the only tickets available. Which will mean we’ll be in a situation where you’ll inevitably have some fans in that area wishing to stand and they’ll end up blocking of the view of others who have an expectation they’ll be sitting. The fact that the family friendly seating make up the vast majority of the tickets left available shows that demand for these tickets was not as high as the club thought, whether it was a data driven decision or not.I bet they all go tomorrow in about 3.5 minutes
But if those who are desperate to go have only got the option of sitting in the F&F section or not being there at all, why can’t they sit for an hour & half?Yes because they will be the only tickets available.

Yes the club should have two seats left, 1 of each and the last two customers want those last two.Yes because they will be the only tickets available.

I think Fulham have now put safe standing in one or two sections
Yep, they have clearly got the ratio wrong hereYes because they will be the only tickets available.

Well done for missing the point. We all know that. Because people would rather be there than not at all. The point is that they've massively overestimated seating demand for this game.I bet they all go tomorrow in about 3.5 minutes
Worth pointing out that the seats in P6 (the middle of this image), even right at the front, are not FF.As of 10 secs ago :

I've probably said this before but we normally choose FF as my daughter, despite being a grown up, is a short arse like me and when standing at an away game cannot see large parts of the pitch. It's not just for the older fan who finds standing for long periods difficult.so is the seating area meant for the elderly?
No, its for those fans that want to sit down.so is the seating area meant for the elderly?
No one’s moaning about and no one’s denying it’s a good policy. It’s just clear that the number of seats allocated to that area for this fixture has been too high which is going to lead to issues.I hope some of you lot moaning about the seating area get bashed up by the BFC elderly crew.... don't underestimate them.... they've been round the block a few times...seen it and done it.. have some respect....bleedin whippersnappers indeed![]()
....my post was very much tongue in cheek....but I've no doubt you're right...given that that's where the remaining seats are available... unless of course all those quickest off the mark today who snap up tickets all want to be seated at the game... which i very much doubt... but the reality is...as it stands....if you do secure a ticket today you do it with the understanding that you will be seated.... whether you like it or not....BFC may have to reconsider in the future.No one’s moaning about and no one’s denying it’s a good policy. It’s just clear that the number of seats allocated to that area for this fixture has been too high which is going to lead to issues.
Look like restricted view tickets have been released.
Some people do deny it's a good policy. I have read fans on X/Twitter saying having any sort of family friendly area is a disgrace, makes us look tinpot and contributes to a bad atmosphere in away ends. One fan recently asked BIAS why they won't lobby the club to get rid of it completely.No one’s moaning about and no one’s denying it’s a good policy. It’s just clear that the number of seats allocated to that area for this fixture has been too high which is going to lead to issues.
Personally I think that forcing someone to standup that needs to sit down is worse that forcing someone to sitdown that would like to standup. Surely if they want to standup and are the bestest fans ever then they will be in the first tranche anyway.No one’s moaning about and no one’s denying it’s a good policy.

I agree.Personally I think that forcing someone to standup that needs to sit down is worse that forcing someone to sitdown that would like to standup.
Yes.
