Apart from that being absolutely awful far worse than anything I saw last Season I’m absolutely fuming with regards the no standing at the front in the thatchers end.
Myself and friends have all bought our season tickets as per usual in the thatchers end with our children who being young have always stood at the front to Enable them to see.
Suddenly this season the club have decided that no kids are allowed to stand at the front without communicating that to anyone at all before season tickets went on sale or at any point since. My lad spent all game stood with me unable to see. What Dam has made that decision. That should have been communicated well before season tickets went on sale and people with kids who usually stand in the thatchers could have chosen different stands. Absolute livid.

I did read about it, but thought it was just part of the Covid arrangements, not a permanent thing. Very poor if it is, as small children have stood at the front of terraces since time began - I'd be fuming too. |

I did see awhile back on the covid restrictions that no fans can stand at the front in the gangway. |

Might get seats come the year 3000. Poor really isnt it. They just dont think of the fans. |

Poor really isnt it. They just dont think of the fans. Being 5' 1", I always arrive early to get a bar spot at the front. Then at 2 minutes to 3 some tanked up 6' 6" bloke always comes along and stands in front of me.  |

If I’ve missed it then I apologise but I can’t think for the life of me why covid means kids can’t stand at the front.!! Absolute joke. Unfortunately there wasn’t enough space on the bars anywhere for him but the way it’s going there will be plenty of space at future games. 😢

Wonder if it's the same on the East and West terraces? |

It was ridiculous, loads of the youngsters literally couldn’t see the game ( actually a blessing in disguise ) I can’t see in what way this has anything to do with Covid protocols and if it was mentioned it clearly wasn’t made crystal clear.

Does this Club deserve any young Supporters when they are treated in this way?

Dont worry, I'm sure we will soon be announcing plans for our future stadium and everyone will be guaranteed a good view of the pitch.

What’s the best way to contact the club on this and ask if they can reconsider allowing children to stand at the front being they have sold hundreds of season tickets to children in the thatchers end knowing this was going to be an issue?

If you're on Twitter, Tom Gorringe usually replies quite quickly. Alternatively you could e-mail him. |

Good luck - you aren't the only one complaining. People saying that it was different people doing the stewarding today, not very child friendly apparently. |
