The other thing to note is very often corporate don't turn up hence the empty areas you see at city and arsenal that's why the club are trialing the late scheme so they will sell these on to real fans when the corporates either can't be bothered getting to anfield as the golf course is more attractive or they can't be bothered leaving the bar leaving the real fans on a waiting list pre kick off. There are some who say this is a good thing as it brings in extra club revenue but at what point does it cease to be a football club as we know it. And where does all this revenue go anyway ? Certainly not for anything that benefits us that's for sure

two big issues that have really upset me , one 6 days notice when the club knew since day one that we would be moved , a bit more time would have been the way forward , and 2: like someone turns up to your home and says you have 6 days to move and all the ties friends and memories you have made down the years will be moved aswell but not by where your going 6 days we have got just once again the every day fans treated like [oops] , yes i totally understand corporate brings in money yes i know that will happen in the modern game , but the club knew this migration was known since day 1 why didnt they inform us in better time , poor showing again .

Because had they given notice it would have been debated this way the club get what they want no arguments. You might call yourself a loyal fan faz and so you are but that loyalty only goes one way you will be replaced by corporate at any time and so might I

I would have imagined that the club had learned something after the new ticket price debacle, but I guess not!

Time for a new "Banner and walk out action" perhaps?

I said at the time the ticket price thing was just a battle in the war the war carries on. What needs to happen is the government makes it mandatory that a elected representative of the fans sits on the board of directors at every Premiership club

I think the Club has learned from past mistakes now regarding making decisions. They told fans months in advance about the ticket increase which then gave fans time to band together and organise a protest. What they are doing with this is telling people and at the same time not allowing people to put a protest or complaint in place, like I say they won't be making that mistake again...

Why can't we make a protest after their decision has bee made?

The same happened with the new ticket price policy.

It's never too late to make a protest campaign IMO!

would be a case of after the horse has bolted, I think with this situation the summer is a bit more hectic than usual, the club has get in touch with fans to find out if the existing people in the main stand are renewing, find out if they are happy to pay the extra for the same seat but now called corporate, if not happy to move and relocate them and finally move the people off the waiting list and into seats in the new tier or existing Main Stand. I think the renewals will go out in May so it doesn't give the club a lot of time to put everything in place about 2 months...

Be interesting to hear whereabouts in the old main stand or new upper tier they offer these relocated fans, my guess it will be right at the back of either or to the wings, I suppose the wings won't be as bad as the wings in the main stand now because they are removing the stand stantions which hold the old roof up which will take away the obstructive view seats, suppose it's somethin anywsy...
