Re: sitting room only
My ticket says the Sophia Khan north terrace. Is that not the Clayton End, I probably should know?

Re: sitting room only
So, what happens if the Cow Shed (North)'s full when I pitch up? How will my place be "guaranteed"?

Quite the opposite, Val...I'll be turning up at my usual time of 2.55 (after liquid refreshment in the Oak Lea with other chaps). If it is full, then I'll be returning to that excellent hostelry with all due speed. Never sat down at a Stanley home match in 49 years and don't intend to start now!

Good on you mate! You could always ask the houses at the back if you could stand on the fence for 90mins and it would save you few quid aswell.

Well, there's no way I'm sitting in that stand. Won't be depriving the club of money, as I've already paid for the match with my season ticket (apart from my quid for a draw ticket but I'll give Liz two quid at the first home match of next season to make up for it).

Just think that people like to know whats going on - routine and that - it would have been nice to have been pre-empted of the situation thats all. You know the score -club,fans,communication.....

Re: sitting room only
I know this all seems a bit of a nightmare and I know I haven't had the best of weeks but lets put this into a little bit of context....

Please note this is only my opinion

The seats have been done last minute I think for a couple of reasons..firstly cost and maybe seeing if there were any grants to help out there and waiting for the seats to be available but has anyone thought it might also be cos they wanted to avoid what is happening right now earlier in the season and maybe losing fans for the rest of the season... they could have held on to try to keep fans in their normal places for as long as possible!

one thing I have to re-interate is the club had NO choice in putting the seats in and yes I don't like how they have gone in either but I do know that a lot of thought has gone into the best way to do it.

REMEMBER THE CLUB HAVE NOT CLOSED THE CLAYTON END - LCC HAVE
