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

    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.

    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?

    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.
