My seat 'no longer exists'....

Postby Nickyboy » Wed Aug 12, 2015 5:39 pm

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

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.

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

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.

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!
