If they had chosen those seats because of the fantastic view, I would agree with you, but unless you are at Wembley, you are allocated a seat. Moving one row down doesn't normally impact on your view a great deal and everyone can enjoy the away day experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Mash Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 The behaviour of our own fans has stopped me going to away games. Too many Bamfords these days following the Rams away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I offered to move so they could sit in comfort and I could stand and not obstruct their view. Silly me thought it was the polite thing to do and we could all be happy!

You tell 'em! How dare they expect to sit down just because they have paid for a seat! Next, they'll be expecting the coaches to have fuel in them, just to save the fans having to push it all the way! Some people make me so Grrr! #Derby boys, we are 'ere... whoa o.....

We're all Rams ? and I'd be quite happy to move if it means everyone has a better day. Some people moan for the sake of moaning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What can I expect? Is it true everybody stands up for the whole game?, and do people take their allocated seats? Is it rowdy, south stand style? What about before and after the game? I'd probably drive so is parking an issue at times? I'm in my fifties and would like to sit down and watch the game, giving the rams a cheer on the way. Fairly typical north stander ? If you haven’t been before to that ground or an away match do a bit of planning. Work out where the best place to park is. Ask on here an people will give you an idea. Check the parking restrictions in the area use Google street view etc. Same with pubs. I found it better to avoid the away pubs because they get too packed and if possible opted for a quiet pub a bit further from the ground. As for where to sit there used to be a singing area which if you want a peaceful game you had better avoid that. In the less popular games you should be ok but you may encounter a few idiots at the more popular ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too many Bamfords these days following the Rams away. Me too on occasion. Far too many pissed up/coked up Stone Island wearing fuckwits who insist on sitting in a seat that isn’t theirs and stand up all game while spending most of the time gobbling off to the home fans rather than watching the match. They are absolute ducking morons who have ruined the away day experience for me at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Constant singing, didnt hear anything that has been reported afterwards. I have rheumatoid arthritis and cant stand for 90 but Peterborough ticket office gave us back row seats so even if standing in front we could lean/perch. So depending on match you may be able to chose where you sit once it goes from our booking system. When my boys were younger ticket office allocated us seats near front but more tricky if you cant speak to someone. We Were right near central standing rowdy crowd but sat for much of match but it was great until the end. I think I might have been sat near you. Did you and your son arrive half an hour late?

angieram Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 If people who want to stand choose tickets towards the back and people who want to sit do so lower down there's no problem. It's those idiots who buy seats second row up and then stand throughout that make me mad. These days you get to choose your exact seat so I am presuming they are too thick to understand where the front is on the website plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simmo’s left foot Posted August 19, 2021 Author Share Posted August 19, 2021 Dont really want this to become a stand v sit argument, but it certainly seems to be an issue, and perhaps causing some people to not go to away games, which is a shame. I'm certainly a little apprehensive now, given some of the replies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
