We were turned down for a more central spot unfortunately. Would have been a great opportunity as only a handful of STH's actually bought their seat. If the singing section marked in the diagram fills, then naturally just buy around it. That way it becomes bigger without being officially made bigger. That is our sale plan for this.

Members can buy guest tickets too yes (assuming it doesn't matter whether junior or adult). You might even be able to buy multiple guest tickets on your account?

Yes, every ticket needs to be assigned to a supporter number. You might be able to put it against your account and then provide person's details additionally but it would be easier to just set an account up as it will help in future (plus gives a home priority point for your daughter).

17:00 tonight (if the club activate the system in time) is where all available seats are released (i.e. those STH's who didn't buy their seat). You will have a huge choice. With it being Birmingham, they will take the full 4,500 allocation now.

Is it a full moon tonight?

I know a fair few in Hinckley. One of which goes the gym and I had the pleasure to review the weekend with him this morning. Something I don't see in Hinckley are Forest fans, not surprising. Don't know a single one. Know 1 or 2 Derby fans, fair few Villa fans. And then your usual big clubs are represented like anywhere.

Are those linked accounts a "Strong Relationship"? Otherwise you can't buy and manage other people's tickets. Rather than:

As above. Or come for a chat at a game or just message the group on here or via socials. Not a closed group by any means and always willing to have open communication.

It's been talked about for a long time but the club are yet to fully commit. However, from recent discussions it sounds like they are moving along, at least on the planning side. Whether it comes as part of the expansion or before, not sure. Put it this way, the club has to introduce safe standing to not get in trouble with authorities because persistent standing happens in fairly large numbers at every match and the stadium has no safe facilities for it

As a group, UFS have absolutely discussed the idea about moving next to away fans but it is not something we as a group want. And everyone will have their reason for this. Personally, being next to away fans has two major drawbacks. 1. People will focus on going at away fans, rather than focusing on our team and what is going on on the pitch. This was something we noticed in that Brighton test section. 2. When you have a loud away section, it can really disrupt you getting something going in the home section. Something I picked on at Cov yesterday. As the home fans made a fair racket, it was hard to get going in the away end. What we are looking at currently and in particular in anticipation of next season, is how can we bring singers together, how can we improve the section we have. Moving next to away fans is not top of our list currently. Also, as SemperEadem has mentioned, the club already seem to have plans around where safe standing will go and how the expansion may change any dynamics. Something we are looking to get more details on so we can plan accordingly for next season. Never say never, moving nearer to away fans is not off the cards but there are other avenues we want to explore first. I know people here seem to have a problem with comparisons to the continent, but none to very little of home fan groups (at least the core) are ever near to away fans over there. And the atmosphere is great over there, no matter the opponent or score. UFS are always open to suggestions but plenty have already been discussed/tested. The biggest challenge is getting people involved. The majority seem to need something negative to happen first (like a poor referee, away team/fans winding us up etc.). Hope that gives a bit more context on where we are at right now.

On TV? Like I say it was decent in patches but most of 1st half and def last 15 mins was Cov. My opinion/view from in the ground.

Changing topic slightly but on your point about mobile phones. This is the current generation and it's awful. Went to a gig last night and half of it I watched through phone screens. What happened to enjoying the moment and being there. Same at the football, by all means take a photo at some point but don't video everything.

The loud home atmosphere made it difficult for us first half but I thought it was OK. The second half performance in the stands was an embarrassment. 1-0 with 10 men, our own players repeatedly trying to get something going yet very little response. The players needed us that second half and the result may have been different

I would imagine it gets to 501+ band but I am best guessing based on recent trends. Might be optimistic of me to say it makes All STH.

Would be shocked if it isn't Saturday

Well there is a football match kicking off shortly after so it will have to be on time

20/30 years ago that would have been a good away day. Nowadays Blackpool isn't that attractive anymore

This plus a Saturday 15:00 makes it the potential for a quick seller but in the past some of these have surprisingly gone lower than most expected. Stoke sales should be a decent guideline. Larger allocation but more local.

I would say the same. Although with a bit of luck I can see a few tickets make All STH.

This is a bit of common misconception though (only quoting you as it was the latest one). If STH's regularly go to away games, they will continue to be in the top bands. Assuming they had the ST since 2014. The problem is that anyone who got a ST after 2014, in particular 2/3 years after or later, will almost forever be battling it out in the All STH bracket, doesn't matter whether they do Sunderland on a midweek or not. They cannot catch up. Someone who has been to 1 or 2 away games in 10 years has more of a priority than those "newbies" and will remain so for seasons to come. That is the main issue. The other example for this, if someone has had a ST for 5 years and gone to 10 away games a season, they will be in the same priority group as someone who got their first ST this year and has never been to an away game. I am praying the club finally pull their fingers out and realise that fans who haven't been STH's since 2014/15 deserve some changes to make this a fair system. It doesn't even benefit me and might even hamper my own priority bracket but at the end of the day it is about being fair to the wider fanbase.

In all honesty, who cares. Just enjoy what we are doing. Doesn't matter how and when you win something. Spurs would bite your hand off for a trophy!

To be fair, this discussion is ongoing no matter which games are coming up. Of course, when the quick seller games appear it amplifies the conversation.

What about fans who watched the darker days in the early/mid 00's? Why shouldn't they be rewarded? Currently 2014 is the start of being a loyal Leicester City fan. Doesn't seem quite right or fair? There should be some reward for loyalty I agree with that, but it needs to be proportionate. Just because you hold a ST for 10 years doesn't mean you should forever hold priority on away games over someone who has only had a ST for 5 years. I do feel for anyone who hasn't had a ST for 10 years because they are always in a mad scramble for games in the All STH bracket. Fans should be rewarded for putting in the hard yards.

It's not though. People only recently getting ST's will never catch up to the next level using the current system. People are being rewarded for having a ST since we were promoted to the PL in 2014 (myself included). People going to away games regularly should be rewarded.
