Has anybody been in these (padded) seats for any recent matches? They are obviously in prime position, back of the already premium priced 'halfway line' section - and padded. I called the ticket office to ask if they would be releasing them as season tickets but was told that they are now 'corporate' and they do not appear as available to purchase as match tickets on the online booking system.

However, I've noticed that for the last couple of games this section has been full while the normal corporate section has been anything but. It would be fair to say that the people sitting there did not look like your 'normal' corporate guests. I don't want to offend anyone here but, on Tuesday for example, the occupants of this section appeared to fall below the demographic profile of the average attendee at the Stadium Of Light!

Anyone know where they are getting the tickets from?

I moved across there for the MK Dons game. Didn't have a ticket but no one asked us to move.

They're for people with corporate tickets. You'd have to pay for a meal or something. They may also be given to SAFC employees as a number are given free tickets as a perk.
 
The stewards were moving people during the Peterborough match because they didn't have a pass.

Not sure how you get a pass. The ladies team were sat there.
