Has anyone that sits in T block, Ellerslie Road received an email or know anything about the pressbox being moved there and current seats not being available now.
My old man claims to have received a text from the club regarding this and I am struggling to find anything to back up his concerns about us losing our seats |  | | |  |

So, the email that I have also received is as follows:
Following meetings with the Premier League yesterday, we have been advised that the club must undergo certain mandatory upgrades to the stadium prior to the new season, in accordance with the Premier League's global media rights agreements.
Your current Season seat has been flagged as one that will need to be removed to accommodate new media facilities.
We are extremely sorry for the obvious inconvenience this will cause you and have come up with a process to assist with your renewal.
Not happy, but what to do. Any ideas from peoples at any better seats. Currently on the half way line with fantastic views across the whole of the pitch. | | | |

I'm row E hence guess not affected. It's not the most atmospheric block, but sticking a load of press in isn't going to make it any better. Should stick them in the a School End | |

I wonder if this is linked to the gantry that is above Block T, possibly creating easier access to it? | |

Just watching LCI - you can clearly see this press box thing in ellerslie...god dam'it - taking up precious space for genuine supporters - it's a pretty big thing they've put in. |  | | |

We've lost 90 seats across T and V blocks including both of my own
Still, I'm now on an aisle so will be able to stretch out at least one leg |  | | |

Premier League ruling apparently, never had it last time we were up there.
Have new seats and will need to acquaint ourselves with those around us. oh and a bloody great pillar in the way. Did ask if they will take it down and give us back our seats if we get relegated.
That went down well!! | | | |

Looking at it last week, as well as taking out seats, I think it could well obstruct views for the seats at the back immediately to the left and right of it.
There were also a load of new camera gantry positions at the back of stands which, again in Ellerslie, will obstruct views to the left and right of them.
Looking forward to a few meltdown threads tomorrow! |  | | |

Not at all. I think it's a crock of sht that every year the fcking Premier League come up with something else we have to spend money on and do to our ground. That bloody studio they insisted we hung on the underside of Ellerslie Road has been used about half a dozen times in three years. It usually just sits there full of office furniture.

Yet god forbid they try and introduce cheaper tickets....
I ferverently dislike the PL and everything it stands for. I hope football crumbles and goes back 70 years. |  |

Last time I went mid-row in Ellerslie when someone was kind enough to lend me their ticket I discovered my feet were bigger than the space allocated to them so when we scored I nearly flew into the row in front.
Horrid stand. (unless at the front) |  |

There are two camera towers in Ellerslie Rd, back rows level with 18 yard box. There's also one in the dead centre, back row of upper loft. They are permanent constructions and each one has taken out 16 seats. My brother erected them a couple of weeks ago. | | | |

I've been moved a block further towards the Loft along with family / mates for this press thing in Ellerslie and I'm still pissed off about it. I hope it's worth it.
I know it's a crappy old fossil of a stand but been there for decades | | | |

What's more annoying is Ian Taylor said it won't always be used...only for big games! Ho hum. | | | |
