Away fans downstairs?


it’s a regulation, so it must be. I think it’ll be done for next season as we have sold season cards in these areas.
 
Always a confusing one for me because the mags have them upstairs - so if it's a regulation then how do they get away with it?
 
Be interesting how they do it, either a slice down from the north stand where they are now down to pitch level, or move the away fans en bloc to the south stand, which is what many seem to want.
 
Hardly when we’ve already sold thousands of season tickets for every stand in the lower bowl. Will be the season after next if it ever happens
 
The only problem I have with this is away fans rarely sell out their allocation and it makes it look like there's tons of empty seats.
If the away fans were in the south stand from the swc to say middle of south stand, you could have a few "open on the day seats" to fill unused seats. Leaving a few empty for segregation of course.
 
Tbh in the prem now all away clubs seem to sell a lot more tickets. Football is a lot more popular than it was when Fulham would bring 30 people.
We are also going to be a novelty having been out of the Premier League for 8 years, there will be a lot of opposition fans who have never been to the SoL so will be looking forward to their first trip.
 
Mags get away with it because of health and safety, there's no other spot for people to safely exit apparently. I wouldn't be shocked if we pulled the same excuse.
 
Surely they can’t as all season tickets have been sold?

Suspect we’ll also get the same exemption the mags do
Do we know how many season tickets have been sold? And where? Though I must say I haven't heard of anyone complaining they can't buy their season ticket where they want it.
