I did not realise standing was behind the sticks I think its a lot better if your side on as you see everything side on. But like everyone knows the atmosphere is in styanding so looks like its a seat job as don't like view behind seats. When do season ticket prices for new stadium come out?

Thought you were not going again, Season tickets went on sale before the start of this season and a full price list was available then, but I thought you knew already ours were the dearest in Super League from your other posts. My ticket for behind the sticks (best view in the world) was £130 plus £50 membership fee.

I seriously think that "boys who want atmosphere" should get together, have a meeting, and find out what is happening for the new season in the new stadium. Get in touch and lets organise.

We had the same situation when we moved. I always prefer being side on, stood up. Now if I want atmosphere I have to stand behind the sticks. It's a no win situation. You all need to get together and try to stay sat/stood near each other if you want atmosphere at the new stadium.

Wouldn't the easiest thing for all shed dwellers who wish to remain side on request a block of seats within the main stand? I dread the thought of watching a home game from behind the stick, how ridiculous?

Why dont we all buy tickets for the stand opp the main stand, and just stand up when the game is on (the new shed?).
Side view and standing (sit down at half time for the old ones).
Or is that too simple?

You can get away with it away from home but its a different story @ your own ground, you don't poo on your own doorstep.

You want to stand and watch salford you go behind the goal.
If you want to watch from the side you have to sit

I think its just a bit Cheeky that for years during designing of the stadium us fans made a point that standing was a must and when it gets delivered we contemplate standing in the sitting stand.

Most away games you have 200+ standing and the rest sitting at all seated stadiums so @ home games I recon you can double it and add the people who want to watch the game behind the goal 500-750 maybe capacity of the whole stand is 2k so it might be half full if we r lucky.

What I predict will happen is most will sit on the side because of habit, the persistent standers will go behind the goal and hopefully with the new fans who will come because the new stadium will go in-between.

I know seats are in that stand but have we been told we have to sit during the game? I know most stadiums (but not all, eg. FC United) make you sit, so is it worth asking the question?

By the way Im much too lazy to be the one to ask!

Re: Season Tickets at the new stadium : Wed Sep 14, 2011 1:12 pm  

My ticket for seating is £180 plus £50 membership. Got to sit down next season as my 4 year old will be coming with me and my 14 year old and I don't fancy chasing him round the ground all game so he will be wedged between us!

The only option for any sort of atmosphere is the terrace. Mass standing in the seating areas is never going to happen.

Re: Season Tickets at the new stadium : Wed Sep 14, 2011 3:28 pm  

I phoned club this morningt and asked that if I renew my ticket for the standing area but during the season I want to change to the seats can I ?

They said it shouldn't be a problem.

Must get round to renewing soon.

I bought mine earlier in the year. Standing behind the sticks. Don't think I had the option for any other terrace.
