There is 4 of us going to a presentation and but only 1 of us is using our additional tickets (only 1 additional tickets as well)
So that leaves 11 spares seats for some others
4 of us going , only using 5 extra so there is another 7 seats

Insider has just said that just under 700 were sold yesterday
The Albion have around 4000 ST holders at present.
Even if EVERY ONE of those took up their +3 allocation, it only adds up to 16,000, which is only just over the 15,000 predicted ST limit.
About half the people at the presentation I went to yesterday seemed to be buying extra tickets, but not necessarily all three of them. The rest were just buying for themselves. Ergo: there will be more than enough to go round, plus a bundle of STs to go on general sale, and the rest of the spare seats as match by match tickets.
DON'T PANIC!!

As someone who attends at Withdean regularly but has never had a season ticket, I am getting slightly worried about this.
Where did you elect to go? Did you get a feel for the most "popular" areas?
Well we were in the first presentation of the afternoon, so it was a bit difficult to gauge what the popular bits were at that stage.
From the computer seat maps I saw, and we only looked at the West Upper and Lower, the seats that were flying off the shelves, as it were, were in the front rows of the Upper, and at the back of the Lower, where people are going for the views I suppose. Then the seats in the middle section would be popular, ie on the half way line, and then out to the sides. I reckon a fair few people in the West would want the Northern end of it, to pick up on the North Stand atmosphere a bit more?
They'd barely sold any North Stand seats at that point, but then this week's presentations are (I think) to current South Stand E/D blockers, who are probably more likely to go for the new West, whereas the likes of J block are perhaps more natural North standers. Just to generalise a bit
Oh Edna, did you HAVE to use the phrase "flying off the shelves" ? That just conjures Apple iPhone-type images, implying IMMINENT shortages / sellouts
they told him that they had sold 700 seats yesterday.
