Shame if it's all sold out by Tuesday but I don't mind where we are. I really think we can make a loud noise, whether we're in the tent or the terrace, if all the singers are in the same place

Will Awayday be bringing his drum?

i'll be going anyway, would've preferred to sit so the boy can come, as his mother thinks he's still too small for standing, although he did at burton.

Paul said previously he's going, with drum, to rovers, so hopefully we'll make plenty of noise.

That's good news. I would expect most of the exile Gulls will be in the terrace, with so few seating tickets available. I prefer to stand anyway, cheaper and more money for beer :)

Why don't people just sing wherever they are? Much easier than having to 'arrange' where people will be...

i'd rather be sitting, but given the small allocation of seats, i'd imagine by the time i can order mine on tuesday, i'll be standing.

agree with Fonda - away support is always good, and probably more so for this particular fixture, so we'll get the noise going no probs.

If people sing wherever they are we will not be heard as much as if we are all grouped together. At Old trafford it happened and we could not be heard over the top of all the stevenage singers who were all grouped together. Surely its better to all be in one place rather than spread out.

Or, better still, if everybody there sings, it won't matter where you are...

yes but not everyone will sing, its always quite a small group of people that sing for the whole match. Of course i would love it if EVERYONE sings but i cant see it happening.

I had to move from the so called "singing section" I was in as no one bar a few of us we're singing. By the time SG got us all organised together, we created a better sound. The closer we all are, the better I say.

There were 7000 at Old Trafford, so the singers were naturally more spread. With 1200 at Bristol, most should be prepared to make the effort.

Ye i guess so , but at shrewsbury we had 700 and how many people sang for the whole match ? , not many , only the usual group of singers at the back.

unfortunately, i can see another tickets shambles, which won't help us group together, as many of us can't buy tickets until next week, so maybe the standing section would be better, unless we've been given the entire stand behind the goal (but it sounds as if we've only got a small section of it).

If demand for seating tickets is high, do you reckon the club could ask for more seated tickets?
