This Saturday’s home game against Motherwell will not be all ticket as there will be a PATG in the Main Stand. There should also be a PATG in the Bobby Cox as it has only been about half full so far this season.

I have a season ticket in The Bobby Cox stand. What would happen if someone paid at the gate and decided to sit in my seat? I would of course have to ask them to move but on more than one occasion people have refused with on one occasion the individual becoming aggressive stating that as I had not taken my seat by the start of the game I had no right to ask him to move. If I had been a very placid and laid back individual I may have accepted this situation however I'm an obnoxious ******* and told the **** in no uncertain terms to get tae ****.

This situation could have resulted in a fight however my measured approach to getting the boy telt saved the day. Another person may not be quite as tolerant as me and may move straight to the pus rapping stage when confronted with such audacity - nobody wants that now do they?

This gratuitous seat stealing has not happened since the introduction of ticket only entry to that stand as everyone is allocated a seat the number of which is clearly shown on the admission voucher. Big improvement in my opinion.

Yes big improvement

Be lucky if theres 4500 dees there on Saturday.

Do you honestly think if a guy buys a 24quid ticket and he gets row a, he will sit in that row??

Do you think he's entitled to take a season ticket holder's seat?

There's more at play in the low crowds than ticket only turnstiles or one or two people's personal dislike of the Stadium Manager - the ****e we're given on the park is a bigger influence in my opinion.

Hand them a ticket as they come through turnstile, first come first served with the back tickets being handed out first, it’s no rocket science as long as it’s not a jobsworth on the turnstile

You know that wouldn't work - people would ask for specific seats to sit beside mates and cause bother at the turnstile or would sit anywhere when they got inside.

Clubs responsibillity to put reserved stickers on seats, then stewards and police to do there job if guys are sittng in a reserved seat.

But no one would sit in a crap row/ seat despite what it says on ticket.

The ticketing policy has had a detrimental effect on attendances that there is no doubt.

At least the old fans rep didnt agree with it .

Ticketing policy is definitely affecting some people's attendance but not as many as are being put off by the shocking prices or the crap being served up on the park. All need addressed IMO.

Old fans' rep was a very misunderstood individual; nobody who spoke to him had a clue what he was talking about.
