Just an update - we have asked for this to be looked at - forced moving of people is not the way to go about these things
Offering people the chance to move is logical (for example I was offered the chance to move the South as it would be cheaper for my U-16 ticket) but nobody should (IMO) be forced to move |
Well said Phil although I'd question why the trust wasn't already aware of this initative.
Surely the club would have had input into the decision or is it purely a Stadco decision? |  |

You wouldn't be alone in questioning that. And it was a club decision, not Stadco.
We've been assured an updated communication will be published later today. |  |

Does an U16 go with you JF? If not you should have had one check your Spam folder just in case my friend. |
Nothing there either. Seems they've targeted the noisy fans from the south to create a better atmosphere in the east.
Will you be hanging around the gents in the east now instead of the south? |  |

Bit late for trust to get involved you should have been involved from start but the way things are happening with the club at moment no surprise there ,but what about people who have already been forced to relocate will they now have option to change back to south and sit with their families because some people have been moved and split up because not enough seats in other areas to sit together |  | | |

I'll swap to two seats in the East Upper as long as I can pay the discounted price for the next season's as well , as my lad would qualify for the South Stand child rate when I renew in December.
With what he hears in school and sees on TV, etc, don't think the language used by many will be too much of a shock in the East |  | | |

Seems a bit of common sense is required.
I sit in the south with my young son.
If / when we are all adults I would much prefer to move to the east..
Can't personally understand why someone without children would prefer the south, but it takes all sorts.
It shouldn't involve existing groups being split up though. |
I agree that I can't understand why those with no kids want to sit in a stand with a lesser view than the East.
However, I also know some who are waiting for their little ones to be old enough to join them in the South.
So each case has to be taken on it's merit.
Personally once I have to pay full price for my lad, we'll move (if possible) to the East (or West if any available) | | | |

Just echoing this, nothing really to add
Anyone know where I can buy a photocopier? |  | | |

Out of interest did everyone who is posting on this thread who is being forced to move get the chance to vote in this survey that resulted in 41% "overwhelmingly" voting for a family stand? |  |

Believe a few seasons ago some Newcastle fans took legal action against the club for forceably relocating them,the fans lost the action. | | | |

Simple facts are we should have a family stand. There should be somewhere that the younger generation can go and work has been done to allow family (and kid) based activities behind the south stand in recent years (I think there are things like Xboxes there and challenges they can do before games)
However, we have a 21000 seater stadium and demand for more tickets. People took seats in the South Stand when they opened and their kids have grown but as the club have risen through the divisions the number of STs available have reduced so they cant get seats elsewhere (a good friend of mine from Weston is in this very position)
Stadium expansion would solve this issue however we cannot force people to move seats (and I am led to believe that we are not forcing people to move although it is clear that it is the wording that has been used) although it is a good thing that we are offering people the chance (despite the bad wording) | | | |

I'm told nobody is being forced to move and everyone was given the option of moving in the letters they received about season ticket renewal months ago. |  |

' Because of the changes we are making to improve the family friendliness of the South, we are sorry to inform you that you will have to relocate to another stand for the 2016/17 season and onwards. '
That doesn't sound voluntary to me!! |  | | |

I went down there as i hadn't had an email.
Just as well. They said emails for seniors were going out "later" (which struck me as odd given the timescale and deadline).
Anyway to cut a long story short my new ticket is right on the halfway line, upper tier. Royal box, great success. So anyone else can F*ck off. | | | |

I'm not a senior and I'm buggered if I'm chasing them over this. | |

I sat there once, when I swapped as a favour. The people in that area smell extremely bad and are very obnoxious. I bet you found it easy to get that seat? |  |

And that is the exact point made back this morning
I have been told it is not compulsory but made the point that the email reads very much the opposite | | | |
