Question Blue Voice - North or West?

[Holy Joe]

Will we be able to walk from the west to the north via the burger van ?

Be slightly surprised if they allowed that - I think someone said they were checking tickets last time north was open.

I asked Tom before the CEO Forum the other night and he said that the gate between the West and the North will be closed as I asked if we would be able to use the Shakespeare Drive entrance to get to the North Bank as that would be my shortest way rather than go all the way down to Fairfax Drive and back. He said that the SAG wouldn't sanction it. The whole thing is quite complicated around flow rates for exits in emergency which govern capacity for each stand and stewarding levels, etc.
There's probably an AI app that tells a computer to say no or some such...

That will please Eat Street. Restricting their customer base to a few hundred in the North, rather than 2,500 in the West!

I have used the new Eat Street pretty much every home game. To shut it off to the West Stand fans again is crazy.

369 home tickets sold so far in the North Bank for Saturday is pretty good. W block is still pretty full as well.

Blue Voice block sold out yesterday for Oldham's game. 156 season ticket holders have transferred into the BV from what i can make out, i think thats a decent amount. Plenty of tickets available for Johnny come latelys in adjacent blocks.
Really pleased this is working out for COSU and with currently over 400 home fans in the North , should outsing Oldham's 250.
I think it will sound awesome...

 

[JCB]

Shame. Genuinely look forward to the offerings from that van. They’re going to lose out on so much money over these four games if the west can’t access it

Last call for moving your season cards to the North for tomorrow...

Supporters have until 5pm on Friday (Today) to move their season tickets to the Solopress North Bank ahead of Saturday’s match, and there is no charge for doing so. We encourage supporters who wish to show their vocal support to the team to base themselves in Block NB – especially ahead of our dedicated ‘Flag Day’ against Wealdstone, with more details to be revealed in the future.

How do I move my seat?

1. Email tickets@southend-united.co.ukwith your SHR number, confirming that you are happy to relocate and be a part of our Blue Voice for the remainder of the season.
2. Call the BTMK Box Office on 03444 77 00 77 – option 1.
3. Visit the BTMK Box Office and discuss your move.

I hope that the appetite is there for the north but I just can't get excited about it so staying put in the west for now.

Disaapointing to lose the burger van access.

Tom Lawrence said that there would be another bar open for the west for this game. Any idea where this will be?

Cant see where they would put it

Blue Voice section has been sold out since Thursday so club cant offer the section to seasos. Can buy up in the adjacent blocks though. Be great to fill most of the 3 sections with vociforous fans frankly. Always had W block in the West oversubscribed and fans trying to stand in my STH seats just before ko. Looking forward to carnage when we score

Love it :-)

Tonight is why we need a full north bank with no away fans

 

[Holy Joe]

How was it for rest of stadium? Was fantastic in the NB.

[THE SEVENTIES NORTH BANK]

I don't think that the away section can be moved for a few reasons. But, we can fill up our part of the North Bank. There were quite a few empty seats. Imagine the noise if it's full next home game.
