Aren't those seats up for grabs for anyone who wants to buy them? I haven’t seen them go up for sale? I think they’re just opening the section and letting the FCU sit there instead of wherever they have actually booked. So there will be some empty seats elsewhere. Unless there has been dialogue and tickets have actually been transferred. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only saw it on twitter from the assistant safety officer saying they would send the FCU the full decision. I never knew Saints had one, never mind multiple, safety officers.

Pat McGroin Posted August 25, 2021 Report Share Posted August 25, 2021 A quick tally up shows around 775 seats left, give or take. Unlikely to be a sell out but I’d wager there was more empty seats than that against Galatasaray Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MOH one of those rested on Sunday for a reason, he will start tomorrow night. I can see the same team to play then again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I’m assuming the club have “a contact” in the FCU to arrange their displays etc. I’d reckon that’s where it would go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give someone a heart attack, stressful enough watching Saints play. Love when there is an atmosphere at the football. Its a reason to sit in the East Stand but dont get me started on drums and football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone know how the revenue from TV is distributed. 1. Go to home team. 2. Split between both teams. 3.

Pretty sure it's (1) for the qualification/playoff rounds, and (3) for the group stages. There's a Reddit post today with details on the group-stage payouts.
