Sound like supporters who are confused about what year it is and when the work will happen.
Nope, emailed the club to see what the options are for moving seats. Was told to come in to the club shop (by booking a time), and then asked to reserve a seat for the 26/27 season. Asked if I had to move for next season & was told no this only applies to 26/27. And no, I’m not confused

Following these sessions, and a successful agreement to proceed, we’ll welcome you to attend the County Ground and select alternative seats for the 2026/27 season. Alternatively, please email your seat request to supporters@swindontownfc.co.uk and we’ll do our very best to accommodate you. The predicate clearly binds the rest of the sentence. If you are anal and argumentative you could say it doesn't bind to the email sentence. I mean it's a bit of a reach to see it that way, admittedly.

Yep, I emailed and then visited

I think they just ignored their own procedure through lack of internal communication with the ticket office/incompetence. Useless

But it does say Alternatively email your requests and we will do the best to accommodate. It’s a bit ambiguous as to when you could do that bit. In fairness we are planning on moving to the Arkells instead anyway

I don't begrudge anyone managing to secure a seat. Just want the same chance as everyone else to get something with our group.
I agree it's not 100% clear, pointed that out earlier.
Wonder then if they are blocking the 26/27 reserved seats as a st for the 25/26 season, as it's going to be a potential nightmare if they haven't.
In any case there are enough seats for all. Just perhaps not in a favoured place.

So take the example of a long term ST holder in a section of the Don Rogers unaffected by potential redevelopment.
They’ve renewed for next season 25/26 already.
In theory, a fellow ST holder who is in an impacted seat could choose above ST holder’s seat and reserve it for 26/27? Or are the club excluding seats sold already to ensure those individuals can renew as they normally season on season?

. I’m assuming you can only choose a seat that is not already a ST. We asked for a couple of locations but one of them only had one free seat so we couldn’t pick that area.

Yeah I'd assume they wouldn't reserve current st seats, including people that are moving early.
But if you can reserve now, you'd be mad to move early

Perfectly logical, and with any normal club I wouldn’t even have had to ask!

Given the popularity of the central blocks already, I can’t imagine there being too many similar seats available in that stand.
Good job the development won’t get approval, or there’ll be a lot of pissed off loyal fans.

Where have you heard rumours of a takeover?
