I have bought 7 tickets for the uncovered seating area but the tickets numbers are all over the place, we have an under 18 sat in a different place from us. I haven't been since it was standing there ... Does anyone listen to the seating arrangement on the ticket or just sit wherever??

Sit wherever pal. The majority know the score and won’t be standing/sitting where their allocated seat is. Standers to the back as much as possible.

I’d think it’s safe to say you’ll be able to sit where you want.

From previous visits there people have stood where they want, it’s impossible to sit on those stupid benches with no backs and a shallow rake of terrace.

Yeah surprised if the ticket seat numbers actually count for anything.
Not had mine through yet but having flashbacks to the game that got rained off - grey skies and thunderstorms.

I’ll be rocking up at 12:55 watered as a fart and demanding to sit in my seat.

I’ll be rocking up at 12:55 P?!sed as a fart and demanding to sit in my seat. That’s after the wonderful Wiltshire Constabulary have walked you around Swindon.

Due to mobility issues some of us purposely get an end of row ticket. If the allocation is pretty much taken then sit in the seat you are issued. The 'sit where you want' brigade can F off

The 'sit where you want' brigade can F off Unfortunately, it only takes 1 person out of 2,500 to throw this into complete disarray. Personally I don’t find it unreasonable to place yourself where you wish, especially when we are taking such large numbers. I also don’t think there is much in the way of ‘sitting’ behind the goal, wether they bolted seats to that crumbling old terrace or not. Anyone looking to locate ‘their’ seat and plonk themselves in it, are better off in the covered stand. In my humble opinion.

Last time I was there was the abandoned game a few years ago. Could have jumped in a river and wouldn’t have got as wet. Horrible club with a manager who tore apart what we had and we haven’t recovered since. Hope we beat them.

Takes one person not to be in the seat to water people off. If everyone sticks to their seat there is no issue. If tickets were issued as 'sit where you want' so be it but they are not. Same as Train,theatre,concert,flights etc. As I said I have mobility issues so pick an end of row seat for that reason. It benefits everyone in the row, not just me

I’ve been caught on this before, told some dude to move abs virtually the whole stand told me where to go. Hopefully the people who want their allocated seating can ask the lady with the ice cream tray and the torch to show them to their seat. Then at the interval they can order some binoculars and a choc ice.

The answer I will give to anyone asking me to move is “ok, someone is in our seats. If you get them to move, we will happily give you your seats” You know they won’t. They just want “MY SEAT!! It’s MINE”

Strange that people want to sit in a specific seat when it was random, you couldn't select a specific seat like you can on the rovers website so why feel strongly about that seat?!?!

Obviously they can't understand if somebody buys 4 tickets together they then want to sit next to those people and not be split up.

Big difference from sitting in a random seat towards the back to a random seat low down near the corner flag. If you buy a group of tickets, which would all come together you'd expect to easily sit next to those people.

But you had no control over where you were sitting it was random so you could be down in the corner anyway. Yeah you wouldn't expect them to be together but they are not hence the question
