Can we rule out bottle tops being melted down and reformed as additional seats?

Any noticeable upgrades around the stadium last night? Did any of you notice the newly installed seats?
Yes. The seats seemed a lot closer together. I made a point of checking this out. Obviously it was very difficult for people to judge as they normally sat 3 seats away from others.
We should prepare for the moaners at the pre-season friendly to put the boot in about the reduction in personal space.
We noticed that in WSU.

Didn't notice it myself in ESU but then I'm not a fattie and had loads of empty seats around me.

Is the scaffolding up at the North Stand end yet. (Or has it been shelved for now?)

This was the gap between the seat hinges. It is now about a centimetre.
I am sure that when the Amex opened, Tony said we have the best seats, plenty of leg room and personal space, and view. Wish I could find his quote.

Thought the north stand improvements were more of a long term plan, or is that happening this summer?

Probably will happen before the new stand at PALACE!

In UK stadia, the maximum number of seats in a row in a block is almost always 28, 14 at the end of a stand. The Amex design was already optimised at the 28.
Instead, I wondered if the seat filling in carried out over the last year has utilised all the unnecessarily empty sections of stands eg at the ends of WSU and ESU, the very top of WSU centre where there were empty concrete seating decks and perhaps some shuffling together in the 4 lower deck corners?

I have just counted the seats in my row on the ticket website and there are 30 seats. At an extra two per row per block in WSU that’s quite a few extra seats.
15 at the end too (bottom rows).

Checked my seat out at City game. Seat number changed but still at end of row.
Just checked my row on the ticket site and it's still 28 seats. I'm in East lower (no I always stay to the final whistle).

Is that at the very end of a deck, i.e. a half block?
28 in our block and no change to seat numbers. Must have realised the block is mostly full of chubsters and left it alone ����
Yes, bottom left of WSU block A.
