Presumably you need to select a different seat? |  | |  |

Season Ticket Seat Moves on 20:17 - May 22 with 7121 views | SitfcB | I’ve had an email about X block being made bigger even though it doesn’t affect me!! Dear Supporter, Everyone at Ipswich Town Football Club would like to thank you for your fantastic support last season and trust you are looking forward to the new season in the Premier League. You may have seen in the media that, due to Premier League requirements, the Club must undertake some significant changes to Portman Road over the summer months. Some of these changes directly impact the stadium seating plan, and as such the club is making contact with those affected supporters over the next few weeks to highlight these changes. Unfortunately, a number of premium area seats will be affected by these changes, and to those supporters the Club are able to offer alternative premium seating. To achieve this, we are looking to add additional seating into Block X with the creation of a further 136 seats. For this to be completed with the least possible disruption, we will be adding additional rows to the area as well as adding a small number of seats into existing rows. Whilst this will reduce legroom in Block X, making it more in line with other areas of the stadium, all seating in this area will be padded to retain the premium feel. The map of Block X below shows the new look to the area. Seat 1 is the first seat to the right-hand side running to seat 56 on the left-hand side. The middle stairwell is flanked by seat 28 on the right as we look and 29 on the left. If you login to your online profile at https://tickets.itfc.co.uk/, you will be able to verify your seat location in relevance to the changes. If you have any issues with your new seat location, please contact the Ticket Office team on 03330 05 05 03 from 10am on Thursday, 23 May or drop in to Planet Blue from the same time. If, however, you are happy with the seat location you do not need to take any further action and your season card will be sent in readiness for the new season. Once again thank you for your continued support and we look forward to seeing you at Portman Road next season for Premier League football. Kind Regards, Ipswich Town Football Club I guess that’s because Y block in Magnus is being reduced in size due to the press box extension? |  |

Padded seats, free programme and hot drinks. As long as it does not cost me any more! Not sure those already in X Block will be so happy when they find out about the increased seats and rows being squeezed in there. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

That's the email I got. Currently in block C, but can't actually see they are moving me. If I dare take up the team, behind the teams time tomorrow I may give them a call. What's the worst that could happen, Ashton could restrict my oxygen |  | |  |
Season Ticket Seat Moves on 20:33 - May 22 with 6875 views | abracaDOBRA_ | I think it’s a generic email gone out to everyone subscribed. I sit in the SBRL stand so see no reason I’d be moved. Person next to me not received email. I think it’s just warning people that sit in Block X, the changes with extra seats etc. Don’t think it’s telling people they are moving. |  | |  |

This is the email forewarning us of a potential future email, not that future email confirming we've been affected. You aren't being moved to X I'm sorry to say, but then who wants to now the legroom's gone! |  | |  |

I saw the plan and thought they were putting the seats behind Block X and not adding two rows to the existing Block X. I am a Block X season ticket holder and pay a premium for the legroom and view. As long as the legroom is still ‘decent’ and not Cobbold-esque then fine. Just hope my view is still as good! |  | |  |

Yes that sort of makes sense. Just assumed they would only target those affected and as I am Block C I assumed I had the potential to be affected to accommodate the increased away support. |  | |  |

Seems an odd thing to send 21000 people when to only affects a couple of hundred at most, but re-reading it, suspect your right. |  |

I think they are asking if you'd like to swap your season ticket for one at Brighton |  |

Just had this response. Thank you for your email. Apologies: the email was meant to go to season ticket holders in South Upper ‘X’ – please disregard it. |  | |  |

All a bit strange. My son got it and I didn’t. We sit next to each other in the SAR lower |  | |  |

They have just issued another email, recalling yesterday's email! Looks like there could be a lack of oxygen in the ticket office. |  | |  |

Or perhaps too much oxygen. Ashton often references providing enough or more oxygen, but oxygen toxicity is real. Stay safe. |  | |  |

no idea why I did either, I an in Cobbold |  |

Season Ticket Seat Moves on 11:15 - May 23 with 5320 views | Grumpy_Old_Man | It's a poor email and explanation. I presume the blue seats highlighted in the plan are the new seats created but that is not made clear. |  | |  |
Season Ticket Seat Moves on 11:21 - May 23 with 5291 views | TractorWood | Very poorly done for people who are presumably paying decent wedge. Doesn't really describe in any detail whether you are affected. What your options are. None presumably other than a generic moan to the ticket office. Doesn't describe any compensation. |  |

Season Ticket Seat Moves on 12:25 - May 23 with 5147 views | essexblue | I didn’t receive an email yesterday but have received one today. It’s come a bit out of the blue. It doesn’t tell me a lot other than I’m going to lose what I assume is a large chunk of the leg room which the seats have had up until now. As an older and large person (probably as a result of too many match day pies over the years) I got the premium seat in block X 6 years ago because of the extra leg room. A padded seat, free programme and hot drink, whilst nice, I wouldn’t think is a main motivation for most people having these seats but extra room definitely is. Whether the extra cost of the seat is now worth it I don’t know. I’ve been lucky enough that I have been able to pay a bit extra before for the extra room but now I’m retired and with the main benefit taken away I don’t know what I’ll do - probably nothing given that there is likely no choice available for people having seats in block X already. |  | |  |
