This zero tolerence East Stand.....

[byf]

Now my presentations not until 3rd feb and like many others am re-thinking my seating plans in time for the presentation, as it looks like the areas I want are going to be gone or more or less.

Now I fully understand the clubs stance on not swearing in the family part (Block F) which is over towards the North stand.....But does this apply to the entire East stand being zero tolerance?

Also, for any of those who have already been to a presentation....whats the selling been like in the east central part?

I certainly dont want a ristriction on what I can and cant say, so should I avoid the entire stand at all costs?

Also dont want to be surrounded by kids and having an atmos around me like a england under 21's game!

Paul Rogers delivered our presentation this morning. He made a strong point about the entire East Stand (not just family part) being zero tolerance. On the basis of your post, I'd suggest it's not the stand for you mate.

Have no idea how sales have been going that side, but we were told this morning that 5,500 seats (incl. 1901) have gone so far.

The *entire* east stand is for the more well behaved patron.

I'm in the East Stand. It will be impossible to enforce a 'zero tolerance' policy, in my opinion, apart from in the family section. Swearing is inevitable at exciting/ heated moments of the match - other than the family section I would imagine it will be roughly the same as other parts of the ground.

I got my seats there because of the view, I'd imagine many people will do the same.

At the presentation today it was said that if you are likely to keep wanting to stand throughout the game and swear at the linesman then the East is not for you. Our more 'lively' fans are being pointed towards the North stand.

Which is next to the "Family Stand". Pretty good move if you want little Billy to learn all those lovely swear words from the North Stand Ruffians.

Some of us slightly older, but still very lively fans, have already pointed ourselves to the West upper.

Insider has answered this on ATC, looks like it will be 'enforced' in the Family Stand.

Zero Tolerance in East Stand..

There we go then - looks like it's just in the family section, otherwise they may as well make the whole stand the 'family section', which it clearly isn't.

I'm assuming I am not going to my preferred option in Lower West D section with my presentation not being until 10th Feb. Does anyone who has been recently know if this section has gone yet?

As have I However, I feel that the effect of vertigo will stop many from spending too long standing up.

Hopefully, being so far up will also stop some of the idiots (like those currently in F block) from constantly shouting at the 4th official to get the opposition manager / coach ''back in their box' when they dare to take a step outside of the boundary.

Didn't look in detail but if that's the expensive bit by the tunnel without concessions then I'm sure there was still reasonable availability

I don't suffer from vertigo.

I test ladders for a living.

One of my +3's was hoping to get a seat down there. I'm booked for 4th Feb.

They've sold 3,000 out of 15,000. The west upper holds 5,000 and the west lower holds 5,000. I think people should stop worrying for a bit!

I do suffer from vertigo and it's a pain in the arse, sometimes I get so dizzy I can't stand up...

The fear of heights, however, is called acrophobia; I do not suffer from this.

West stand upper for the slightly more mature ruffians and cracking atmosphere.
