With 900 general admission seats being allocated to existing season ticket holders and the 900 becoming premium seats. It won’t improve the waiting list situation ( unless you can afford a premium seat) . Those on the list may get the chance to buy a posh seat, I guess?

But it sounds like even the existing seat holders aren’t getting that chance, Which is making me wonder: are people losing their seats because it is being converted to a premium seat or are people losing their seats because the seat just won’t be there anymore?

All 900 will be able to relocate to other parts of the ground. Their seats will become premium

Just to clarify,My point was, in reply to the possibility that people on the waiting list could buy a premium seat, that the existing seat holders aren’t even being given the option to retain their seat as a premium seat.
I'm sure if your seat still physically exists you will be given the option to take it at the premium price if that is how they are being sold.  Whether you want to shift to corporate / GA+ pricing is up to you.

I get why you're anxious, I would be too.  But at this stage we're all just guessing and you may not even lose the seat in the first place!

I remember listening to an interview with wrestler Ric Flair where he once told Macho Man Randy Savage to stop constantly worrying about things that might never happen. As much as I try to be like Ric Flair, I will always be Randy Savage (insert joke here).
Could be worse.









You could be Robby Savage.

Time to implement my "would you all mind scooching up, please?" free pie plan to get rid of all the single seats dotted about.

How does adding more seats "in the stadium bowl" work, then? They obviously can't just make seats smaller.

This is my crazy theory.  They are going to rip out all the boxes and turn them into terrace views. The row directly in front of this will be lost to make a walkway. Three new rows will be added to the tier above, overhanging the new terrace views without somehow blocking the terrace view

Nah, you can't just stick three more rows at the front of the upper tier, engineering is much more complex than that.

I also think an executive box would bring in more money than Terrace View style seats.

My money would be they're upgrading the boxes from glazed in, old school 1990s rubbish, to having more of an outside area.

Fair enough. I did say it was crazy.

As soon as they said that some ST holders would have to move, the club should have told people immediately if they are affected.
