Took a call today from the club telling me the builders cocked up the plans so my ST seat no longer exists!

I'm SSL2 so not even in the new tier! I'm right on the segregation line with the away fans so must be something to do with.

Been relocated two rows back and a few seats along so drama for me as I sit on my own - but what a cock up.

The lad said stadium was only handed back by the builders yesterday, but they're fully confident of passing the certificate fully tonight.

Anyone had anything similar today?

Poor lad sounded well stressed so I didn't even push for a freebie for the inconvenience!

Schoolboy error. You should have acted fuming and seen what you could get

It had better pass i'm on the waiting list for a chelsea ticket.

Went past last night and there's still bits of cladding missing - leaving holes into the stadium, so not really safe. I'll be amazed if it's fully open on Sunday

This has happened to me too. SSL1. Offered me any available seat in the ground and priority relocation next season. Got a paper ticket for family stand on Sunday tho as new seat already sold for Chelsea. Proper cock up!!!

This is a major Fuck up. Ask for 93.20 seats at no extra cost for this season. You guys are the ones inconvenienced.

Also. The club has 5k seats reserved for Chelsea because of the certificate issue. My two reserved seats as a precaution were in 207. Ask for those!!

I still don't have my seasoncard yet either.

Typical city

Still no season ticket mad to see Chelsea I live in bournemouth do I risk a 250 mile drive each way to queue for a paper ticket and where do I go to get it ?

I'm moving into the new stand as it saves us about 400 quid. Had an email this morning to say that the test was a "complete success". Will be open on Sunday for the game

Just got a text message from the royal mail saying my ticket is being delivered. Tfft

Read a report on t'internet this morning that certification had been issued and all was approved

Mine hasn't come either and I called yesterday to ask can I pick a paper one up on Friday as there is no chance I am messing around on match day with the large queues. They said that this is fine.

If you have any mates in Manchester I would send all your SC details to them and ask them to pick it up for you so you don't get stuck in the queues on Sunday mate. They can be bad on match day and will be even worse Sunday as there seems to have been a major FU with SC this year. I was told it was in the post but I was probably being given lip service.

You was one of the lucky ones with your pic on the back,mine has got a shit render of the new tier on it but i cant be arsed pissing around getting another.

So I believe. My lads pic was the 2012 pitch invasion but is awful and dark. Looks like coal miners in a dark forest

Had an e-mail off the club this morning i can choose a seat for the Chelsea game from 1pm today subject to availability so if successful it's the townley for me pre-match.

I put a picture of Kola on mine but it's got some white line going across the top!

I attended the test event last night, and many people were told their seat didn't exist.

My problem was, I went with my neighbour, who is a builder, not to scare anyone but he said the amount of trip hazards was shocking, and that he personally would'nt have signed it off!.

Still, it's a fantastic view in the new tier, the whole event was brilliant!

Did you get a little too excited when you opened it?
