I suspect lots of us would like to swap seats and sit in another part of the ground,but we wouldn't expect the people who sit in our prefered seats to be moved to accommodate us. Personally i believe that they've done more than enough to warrant a favour or two, for the greater good. Life evolves.

Yes but what will effectively be making the whole lower tier stand is taking that favour a bit far due to plenty of valid reasons from those unable to stand, get a similar view etc etc. That’s the crux of it. It’s unworkable at this present time and shouldn’t have been either ‘promised’ or ‘offered as a possibility.’ Wait 2-3 years. It’s that simple.

It makes far more sense to wait for the new stand & the inevitable shift around of seats. Safe standing would still need to be in corners or possibly the whole (or a large part of) of the Whitehorse - maybe even the rear of the front section in the AW (if that makes sense). From what I recall of discussions past, the club agreed to look into the feasibility of a move but no promises made. Maybe they should simply have said wait for the redevelopment. Ironically, this whole situation might cause the rest of the fanbase to raise its game.

what would be nice, with all these 'facts' being bandied about, is a comment or some such from the club, with their view of the proceedings. what has happened in their view, what was or wasn't offered/inferred etc. This all seems to be supposition and 'he said, she said' kinda stuff.

The fact that the club even looked into this as a possibility was a pretty big favour as well.
Employee of the month is a good example of how someone can be both a winner and a loser at the same time. |

They want to hand the baton over and/or have other things to do/afford in life in the next few years, as is natural? Not really affordable for all classes all of the time.
