    Can you at least to attempt to sit in the seat you are designated on Saturday?

    It's not normally a big issue with so many empty but the Ponty looks about 90% full now and if you sit in my seat, I'll no doubt have to sit in a seat that has been bought by someone else and it all just becomes a massive pain in ass.

    Thanks.

    Or you could nip that process in the bud at the first hurdle and get whoever is in your seat to move.

    We are expecting to need to shift 20 lads out of our ten seats.

    Ah right, good luck with that! Still, at least our stewards are effective and super-efficient with stuff like this, eh readers?

    I agree. Just sit in your designated seat. It's not rocket science is it?

    I normally do ask folk to move but most of the time I can do without the hassle.

    The usual thing is it's people who have bought tickets separately who then decide they want to sit together, then when you ask them to move they look at you as if you've burst into their garden in the middle of July and p*ssed in the paddling pool.

    I haven't sat in my 'own' seat all season and there hasn't been a problem.

    I would be Saturday, but a mate wants to come along so I'm going to go through for his ticket tomorrow and ask if they can move me next to him.

    Surely the stewards have to act there's parents etc with kids,surely we're not gonna allow them to try and split them up.I would expect people to be ejected arrested for this.

    I'll not be sat in mine, don't and very rarely sat in my ST seat. It's not a disaster. FFS it's once in a blue moon. Chill out. There's more important things to stress abart!
