Title: South stand seating question
Post by: Pinter777 on September 22, 2024, 01:15:16 pm
Sorry for the obvious question, always sit in the main stand, my son wants to go to the sour stand , am I right in thinking it’s unreserved so basically you grab what seats you can or am I wrong? Thanks

I think the West Stand is the Sour Stand.

Seem to be having trouble purchasing tickets. No issues purchasing online for 3 tickets. But for the chesterfield game I need 4, asking me to assign people etc, am k better off going to the ticket office?

?

Based on what? The fact the support sat there doesn’t have a large flag to wave? They don’t have a drum beater? They don’t sing/chant in large numbers throughout the game?

I can assure you that any Rovers player on that side of the ground near the away end goal (when Rovers are attacking it) can hear the encouragement & roars when they go past an opposing player, deliver a good ball or indeed score in that goal. They don’t run towards the crowd there because they’re busy looking in their programs to see who the scorer was, they come across to the fans there because they know from experience that their joy will be reciprocated & recognised.

Sour?

From an ex ‘Pop Side’ supporter who now sits in the West Stand, I don’t think so.

Each to their own and that's exactly why it's fantastic that the south stand is unreserved and other stands aren't. It's deigned to allow the singers and standers to be next to each other and if you don't like that then you've got many options

It's only took me 15 years but I love the south stand now.

BST was making a joke mate.
Didn’t you see the mistake in the OP?

Correct but it's also the cheapest stand too. Some will pick it because of that

To clarify it was a misspelling apologies.
