Had a change of seats today in the JHU and there was a group of around 7 of us so were spread across a row. We were in a ST holders seat who had bought it for today, so of course he rightly was entitled to that seat. However instead of 'excuse me you're in my seat' he just decided to barge into me and when I asked if it was his seat he just looked as though i'd p*ssed on his Christmas presents. I then said 'I don't mind moving its your seat just ask rather than shove me' and then when I did move I got 'shut up fatty', this from a fellow Burnley fan and a grown adult.

It's pedantic, ignorant and rude people who make football less enjoyable. If I had been awkward I would understand but this man didn't even bother to ask politely if I could move up.

Pedantic.

Sounds about right for the JHU.

Knuckle dragging and uneducated.

Not a surprise though.

Don't seat in my seat again , if you do I might show you my nasty side .

Obviously I had no issue moving from his seat, but it doesn't hurt to politely ask rather than act like that

Why didn't you sit in the seat you were allocated?

There was a group of us all next to each other (standing, it was row Z) so we spread out a little into empty seats as we had 2 young children with us, I was on the end so was stood in his seat. Had no issue moving but it's not difficult to ask rather than just stand there

got to agree with you Tuddy, manners cost nothing

So, just one fan then

No, 1 fan having the issue over his seat then a seperate grown adult man not affected by the situation with the insult

I see the OP made it sound like you were sat in his seats, you were just spread out a little too far.

Fair enough.

Yeah that's what happened. Even I had been sat in his seat though it's still no trouble to ask me to move rather than just standing there

As you were stood in his seat thats why he was a bit upset probably...bit of an over reaction on his part unless that is you had dog shi! On your shoes.....

You didn't mean that did you

I purchased a ticket in the JHU but, unfortunately, it wasn't next to my mates. I still sat next to them and some ar*ehole then claimed it was his seat. Granted, his ticket was for the seat I was sat in but there were plenty of unoccupied seats in the 'Jimmy Mac' where he could have gone. Still, he insisted that he took up the seat on his ticket. I remonstrated, landing a few slaps to his noggin. Next minute, the Stewards forcibly removed me from the ground and a Police horse bit the hood off my jacket.

A bad day all round.

Going to your seat and finding someone sat on it is very annoying,maybe next time get your own,problem solved.

Wasn't sat in his seat just stood over it, which wasn't a problem considering at that time it was empty. I had no problem moving, doesn't take much to just ask

We don't have these problems in the CFS.

CFS is fantastic, have renewed my ST in there next season

Bit confused why were you stood over it.

smudge wrote:Bit confused why were you stood over it.

Because it was empty so we spread out to give everyone a bit more room. If I was being arsey About moving I'd understand being unreasonable but I was perfectly happy to move once he did arrive late

Seats are for sitting on!

At what time was this seat still empty, 12.50? If not, then i'm afraid you occupied the area too soon.

This is all rather confusing - the op reads as its one man being rude but then its apparently plural.
You say you were in a ST holders seat but then you were just stood over it.

I think if you had been banging on as much about it you are on here, I would have told you to shut up as well. People are rude in all walks of life - he thought you were rude for sitting in his seat, you thought he was rude in his reaction. Just one of things.

Can't remember it wasn't that late I don't think, I was stood right next to it it wasn't a problem moving, manners don't cost anything

And being able to arrive at the seat you've paid to occupy, at your own leisure, and be able to access it without any issues shouldn't be alot to ask.

All it was is I was stood in the way of him putting the seat down which of course therefore I should move to let him sit down, but rather than just asking me he just stood there and when I asked 'oh sorry am I in your seat' he became rude despite the fact I asked politely and was prepared to move.

Barry_Chuckle wrote:And being able to arrive at the seat you've paid to occupy, at your own leisure, and be able to access it without any issues shouldn't be alot to ask.

Except he didn't ask at all; manners cost nothing.

Someone sat in your seat is like someone parked on your drive bloody annoying.

He shouldn't have the need to ask, he'd paid for that space in the ground and it should be vacant and awaiting him for when he arrives, at whatever time that may be.

smudge wrote:Someone sat in your seat is like someone parked on your drive bloody annoying.

Well it isn't is it, I moved immediatly and wasn't intentionally obstructing him, I didn't even realise I was on his chair. If I was being rude to him then I'd expect the same treatment but I acted politey

This is turning into a very surreal thread. Tuddy - I won't look for reasons to justify unsociable behaviour - the other guy sounds like a pr1ck.

UTC!

As I've just said, I made the mistake of being over his seat. It isn't as though I refused to move, it could of easily been solved if he had just asked

You seem to be missing the point,stood there or sat there is the same.It's not your area that you payed for,you were in the wrong and have paid the price.

You also seem to be missing the point too flatline, I had no problem moving and as a result he shouldn't have needed to say anything aside from 'excuse me' as I didn't realise I was over a seat not taken by someone in my group. There was no need to 'pay the price'

"Excuse me you're in my seat"
"Oh sorry about that I'll move"
"Cheers"

Prettt simple isn't it

Some people on here have a favourite hobby of disagreeing no matter what- must find some fun in it!

If your saying you were one seat out and you didn't realise,fair do's, otherwise not acceptable.

Flatline wrote:If your saying you were one seat out and you didn't realise,fair do's, otherwise not acceptable.

That's what happened, there was a large group of us and I didn't know exactly where our tickets started and ended. It isn't as though I was in a completely random seat, I was just one too far to the left, and was happy to move once I realised it wasn't a seat in my group

I was there with tuddybfc and what he's saying is correct - purely unnecessary ignorance from the parties he mentioned. No call whatsoever.

Thought they acted disgracefully today. When Lincoln scored, of course they should cheer and applaud, but they were swearing and jeering at Clarets in the JH and JML and the little girl behind me began to cry due to their taunting.

My job is a secret.
