    FAO Season Ticket Holders In Section 50

    That's the black seats in the Upper FF. Could you drop me a PM if you have a season ticket in Section 50.

    It's about the club's proposal to move us out of that section from season 2019/20.

    Ta.

    If you are trying to get support against the planned move by the club you can count on myself and family friends (total 11) season ticket holders in section 50

    More people in the section starting to find out about this now I think Mike. Heard a few talking about it yesterday, our group will support anything that makes the club think twice about this.

    Is there any reason that people are so precious about their seats other than the primary school attitude of “we were here first so eff off”?

    Maybe because they like being their which is why they chose those seats?

    You’ve probably got a point if there were loads of other seats to choose from but I can’t imagine there is. I’ve got a peach of a seat and I’d be mightily pissed off if Hibs insisted I moved and I had to choose a new one right now, whilst STs are at record numbers.

    They could just increase the price of the high demand seats? We are a business after all...

    Very secret squirrel? Why has the decision been made to advertise this then hide the collective response to the club?

    Could it be that the club intend to remove the padded seats and replace them with standard ones. Such a plan would increase number of seats by 2 possibly 3 seats per row which would increase capacity in FF stand

    If that was the case, surely they would have said this in there communication to the current seat holders

    There also wouldn’t be a need to move people out. From my experience of the Singing section and lift moves, you have very little chance of getting an equivalent decent seat elsewhere and it will probably be worse now than it was then.

    I also think quite a few people moved into section 50 when they were moved from section 25, so it will be annoying for them to have to move again.

    This is great

    Moaning about lack of seats at ER is a good thing

    or maybe like before the club are renting out the spce they had earmarked for the NHS deal last year, when they decomissioned the lift etc?

    I’ve got the same information as you but my guess would be that the OP was intended to make contact with lots of people in the same position and wasn’t for advertising the situation to the rest of us. If that group then contact the club, it’s sweet **** all to do with the rest of us.

    Why do you think they should be making their case in public?

    I have sat in section 50 a few times. Stumbled across these seats once when I made a late decision to travel up. They are decent, bigger and padded. I'd pay more than the the 22 quid to sit in them. Great in the winter.

    When did those seats become available for general sale? As far as I can remember they were always hospitality so I’m guessing it’s only been in the last 3/4 years that that’s changed?
