How to find your seat without seat numbers?

The Valley looked beautiful yesterday in the sunshine, but there was a basic item missing. 

Hardly any of our seats have the bloomin' seat numbers on them, so it was quite a hassle finding your own and also led to constantly moving around for others to find their seat.

Who should we tell this to, and how? Any new fan or visitor will think it's an absolute joke.

  • Surely a health and safety issue.
  • There's an all-weather paper sticker on the chairs. Very surprising that it's not stood the test of time.
  • A black market pen might do the trick. I'll ask my son next time he's down there working to scoot round the Stands & fill in the missing numbers 😃

    It's been like that in the Lower West stand for the last couple of seasons, i'm not sure about other areas of the stadium.
    This becomes more of a problem when the lower west is used by fans who usually sit in other areas of the ground at league games & are unfamiliar with layout of the seats.
    As for who should we report this too, i'm stunned that despite having numerous Fans advocates, advisory board, a task & complete group, CAST committee members, that it seem that the ordinary fan still has to raise basic issues that fans have to put up with at every home game.
    How many of the people in the groups listed above were at the game last night or attend regularly, because if they do they must be aware of this basic problem that you have raised.
    The same applies to the catering situation.
    I wouldn't hold your breath....@largeaddick has been waiting 3 years for the lock on trap 3 to be fixed !!
  • The email to use is fans@cafc.co.uk if you want to tell the club. I tend to cobble together numbers from rows above/below but not a foolproof system

    None of those people actually work for the club, they can ask the club to do something but emailing the address above is the way to directly tell the club. Volunteers will try their best but they can't know about and raise every issue

    Anybody who sits in the Lower West Stand must be aware of this issue, i did email the the SLO early this morning on her CAFC email address but so far have received no reply & have since sent the email to the address you suggested above.

    Believe that email is also looked after by the SLO but it will show a strength of feeling at least!

    Holding it for 3 years! Isn't that very dangerous for his health?

    I have just received this email from the club

    Hi Clive,

     

    Thank you for your email.

      

    I am aware of this issue, and I have sent it across to our operations team to look at.

     

    We have undertaken a lot of work at The Valley in the closed season, but we are aware there is still a lot of work to be done.

     

    I’ll be sure to pass your message on.

     

    Kind Regards,

    Izzy
