All the tickets have unallocated seats on them, so you can sit where you want
They’ll only open the upper if we’ve sold a lot of tickets

Don't think they do? you have to pick lower section 3 or 4 then it gives you a Row and seat number .

This happened last season at Motherwell. Some seats were unallocated, some had rows and numbers. There were a few offers of a square go near me with folk arguing about it.

The confusing situation that arises when there is conflicting advice about unallocated/allocated seating is an absolute joke, and as PB points out can lead to aggressive situations.

Happened at Partick Thistle 2 seasons ago where by people who bought tickets in advance were expecting to sit in their ticketed seat, but people on the gate were getting sold ticketed seats not next to each other and then being told they could sit where they like by staff and stewards.

Total recipe for disaster.

They should make all away grounds seating sit where you want. would save a lot of hassle and when fans come in late getting in the way.

They should make all tickets allocated seating, avoiding pissed up fannies getting arsey when you have the audacity to try and sit in the seat you paid for.

Happened at Pittodrie last game up there. Ask for 2 covered seats beside each other for me and my boy. Received 2 uncovered miles apart. Was told it was sit anywhere then told inside that we had to sit in the allocated seats. Told them to bolt.

Did you buy them from Aberdeen or the Hibs ticket office?

So the same as what happens now, essentially? Unallocated seating is far better for away ends, means anyone who doesn't want to stand for 90 minutes can go to the front and watch the game in peace, and those who do want to stand and sing for 90 minutes can do so without getting in other people's way/view of the pitch. Means far less of the 'that's ma seat' or 'the bairn cannae see' shouts that you're faced with at an away game if you have the audacity to try and stand and back the team vocally

As long as they are consistent in their messaging to fans around unallocated or allocated then it doesnt really matter.

Imagine having the audacity to want to sit in an all seater stadium where there is officially no permitted standing. I blame the authorities for not enforcing the sit down rule from day one, makes a mockery of there being no terraces.

I don’t agree, and I don’t think it really matters the majority of the time, but non-allocated seating at a sell out away ground would be shambles.

That’s got nothing to do with the issue I stated, they banned standing, turned the stadiums into all seaters and then allowed fans to stand when they should be seated, madness.

There will be 3000 empty seats on Saturday. Don't get why people are so precious for a daft seat that happens to be printed on their ticket. For sellout games then fair enough but for likes of Motherwell, Accies, Aberdeen, Killie etc etc. Generally never sit in my own seat and try stand up the back row as I *** hate sitting.

You kidding? The sit down rule was rigorously enforced up until about 5 years ago? Then thankfully they saw common sense and relaxed it when Celtic wanted safe standing in.

Some people like to sit. Some like to stand. It's a pity Scottish football authorities and clubs can't organise a piss-up in a brewery cos most away sections can easily accommodate both.

No I’m not kidding, plus trying to label an area now as a new “Safe Standing” idea surely means they are currently permitting “Unsafe Standing” in a seated area 😂

How can you not sing whilst sitting down?

I'm in a wheelchair and I'm as vocal as anyone during a game.

Was at the last game at Well and walked upstairs into the upper stand ans sat in an empty row. If someone had asked for their seat I could have moved forward, back or sideways and not changed my view. Plan on doing the same Saturday.

Last time we were at Pittodrie I certainly suffered from Unsafe Standing but that was down to spending too long in Nigg Bay Golf Club and becoming reacquainted with an old flame from my youth in the shape of McEwans Export on tap. My shins took a battering.

I was the end seat, and almost against the end cladding of the stand. I had a back problem and felt better while standing. no one behind me, and no one complaining except a young polisman coming all the way up , to tell me Sit DOON. must have made his day.

that's a whole different issue I suppose, but what do you want? nae standing whatsoever?

My shins took a battering.I met the same old flame, last week in the Admiral bar Dundee ! asked the bar staff to give me 70/- but they insisted that I meant 80/-. only a shilling o' a difference but at the end of the evening, all bets are off!!

You mean the ticket and seat that you’ve bought and paid for? If you hate sitting why don’t you buy tickets for the back row? If you’d paid for that ticket and somebody was occupying that seat you’d ask them to move because you specifically wanted to sit where your ticket stated.

Like I’ve said in a later post, for most games away from home it doesn’t matter, but there are people who pay good money to sit in a seat of their choosing.

What if the people that want to sit (or are old/infirm) can't see the pitch because of people standing in front of them?

Don't you think that's a bit unfair?

In seated areas yes, if they want to revert and create standing areas then fair enough.

There will be.

That stand holds about 4,000 and we won't shift anywhere near that number in the advanced ticket sales.
