With some of the football we’ve been playing it wouldn’t surprise me if the board start charging more for the restricted view seating.

“Reports”

If you don’t sit in one of these seats and have no clue if it’s actually true it’s probably best you don’t post about it

Reports from where?

If you were in the old front row of the Copland Rear there’s now a bigger barrier in front of you that impacts your view.

It’s not fully restricted per se but it would piss you off if you’ve come back to it.

There's a thread about it on another forum.

My sons seat in CR1 row E now has a slight restriction so yes,I do know about it and was only trying to guage any replies on here.

Hope that's good enough for you and the other naysayers on here.

It's actually true . 

I sat on my new seat on Sunday with my back on a 4" square section at my back, that went well above my head. Said at the time I felt sorry for the seats behind me as it must cover the full goal.

I'd say that barrier would only affect, I guess, a couple of seats on a couple of rows behind me ,but who knows how many new barriers have been put up.

Should have said that in your OP instead of “reports” 

Hilarious to think any time your son tells you anything you consider it a report though

There you go again. I read reports about it on another forum and then asked my son about his seat.

You're having a nightmare here. Perhaps take your own advice about commenting on something you don't know the facts of.

No need to get angry, just make your posts clearer in future

Some pics for the forum to see with source. Yeah, I wouldn't be too happy with that tbh.

Those stairs go down to the new section that was added to the rear.

That barrier is where the front of the rear section used to be, the seats in front of it are the new ones.

IIRC There was just a wee single railing on the front wall before.

The planning really is poor.  Where I am in CF3, just before the exit steps down to the concourse, a random step has been installed.  So a step up to go down. Definite trip hazard, there was a RFC facilities man standing by it warning everyone so they know it’s a potential issue.

Aye you could see folk coming up the steps having wee stumbles where it changes from new steps to the old ones are the gradient / step height differs a bit.

I'm in CF2 and didn't have that at my exit (that I noticed).  Defo some strange design choices been made during this debacle.

Also,there was no passage like there is now.Those in the front row could lean against the wall.
