Anyone with tickets near the front for the match tomorrow? I would like to know if we have fans actually near the pitch or is it a case of up in the gods? With 9,000, surely it is, say, 3/4 of one of those meccano stand end things - shitty shitbag shit stadium that it is.

Pisses me off that away fans at our place get so near the pitch, it has to spur the visiting team on. Those bastards last week having the whole end. Vile.

I was in 2nd tier, near back and dont specifically remember seeing city fans in bottom tier as I couldnt see, but as far as I can remember we had 12,000 tickets, out of a capacity of 60odd k at the time. I'm certain we had both tiers, we must have done as the north stand alone I believe holds 25k. No idea about tomorrow tho.

i reckon they will city fans into the top tier and into a wedge in that corner where the away fans normally go, that would account for 9k - and, importantly, split the away voice. it's been discussed before on here and i still think we have the away fans location wrong at COMS. too close to the pitch i think, that south stand section.

we're getting east stand second tier allocated. The front of that is pretty near the pitch, but not like our South Stand
