See other thread on empty seats...they're probably safety seats...so many have to be left empty,if they are Safety ones they are not on the seating plan in the ticket office.

I can't understand the seat police. There are so many reasons why people can't attend matches. Many of us live abroad and can't go to matches, but we wanted to support the club by forking out the price of the season ticket to put in the club's bank account. I have friends who take up our two seats on most occasions, but even they won't always be able to go. Others are on holiday, ill, have to attend weddings or family visits or even have to work the odd Saturday. Imagine if it was standing-only, like the olden days. You wouldn't even know if there were any gaps.

If regularly empty, what about depriving those who want to go either as a S/T holder or on a game by game basis.

But the pont is that if the seats are STH they have been paid for, If i can't make a game my seat will be taken by family or good friends that want to, in that respect I'm lucky because I would not hand over my season ticket to a complete stranger, especially as it's got money loaded on it.

A workable ticket exchange is essential.

Agreed. That's what I'm doing, and an easy to use Exchange will help.

All this "depriving people who want to go" nonsense.

My brother has managed to buy individual tickets for Spurs, Blackpool and Doncaster with no problems whatsoever, and all respect to him, he's not the most on-the-ball person around.

Who are all these people who are being deprived? Does anyone know someone who hasn't got into at least one game yet?

Edit backson has just beaten me to it.

There are plenty of people who don't know till the week of a match whether they can go or not, by which time they are sold out.

There have been a couple of games (Gillingham & Sunderland) which haven't been a sell out.

Edit I've just checked and the Posh game didn't sell out until Thursday.
