Eh,the way we do it is good. Restricted entry (need ticket to general area) but sit anywhere,if someone comes along and your in their seat,just move.
 
Is way its always been,and it works bloody well

Allegedly

Way over the top at Millwall's Den there is an open seating policy in the home end and funny enough there is never any trouble!
 
What do the stewards think is gonna happen - an amarda of ockers are gonna surf over the Tazzy and attach the Yellow Fever. Not on your diggery doo!

It's the FFA's rules.  Allocated seating in home ends.  it has more to do with the retarded elements in the Aussie supporter base than us, but it's one rule for all.

How's my driving? - Whine here

I have got my season ticket in the zone (aisle 21) and quite often stand somwhere in the middle of 21 and 22. i always have to go in 21. But the ccm i was happily watching the match (not causing any raucus/not even drinking (what a crime!!)) and some t**ser from red badge came and tapped me on the shoulder and checked my ticket. They said they were told by the cc tv to randomly check tickets! what a joke....i said to the guys have they not got anything better to do??

I have noticed at the last two home games that there was a security guy telling some people to move, one was my friends son and friend, they have season tickets in aisle 22 but they were not in the correct seat so where told to go back to the correct one, there was no one around where they were so what does it matter if they sit in seat 35 and they are really suppose to be in seat 51.
 
 
the people who were next to us this week left just after half time haha think we were too loud for them...plus everyone around them was standing and they were still sitting!


They left about the time we all started chanting "The referees a w**ker" - she sorta looked a bit sideways at me - then when I next looked around they were gone.

Folks,

Turns out some of these issues can be resolved.  Once you (or your friends) are in the stadium, you can pop around to aisle 18 where there is an information box.  They can swap a ticket for anywhere in the stadium for one in the Fever Zone.

That t**ser was me actually and I was doing as instructed....as mentioned so many times here, whether people think its a good idea or not, the FFA has set up these rules and we need to follow them.

Unless the FFA agree to a general admission policy, then this is what will happen. Allocated seating and random ticket checks.

Are you banned from the Dome as well Diddy....?


 
It's impossible to get banned from the Dome, and if I was I would just hang outside with some of the little Tards who are protesting about something mundane like having to finish their Subway before entering the Satdium, and watch the match on the big screen!

Today Tonight or A current Affair are probably following you around so make it Frenzied. Much better TV viewing.
