A Nottingham Forest fan feels he has received "shoddy treatment" after he was forced out of the seat he has had for 15 years ahead of the club's Premier League campaign. Peter Hodges, 62, lives in Farnsfield and has had his seat just behind the directors' box in the Peter Taylor stand for around a decade-and-a-half, and has been a season ticket holder for more than 25 years.
On Monday, June 20, Peter said he received a call from Forest's ticket office telling him he and his two friends he goes to matches with would have their seats moved and they would be given to members of the media. They reluctantly accepted to move around 60 seats to the right and can still sit together, but Peter says this gives an "inferior view".
Peter, who has been to watch his beloved team since he was around eight-years-old, says he has been refunded £20 for the cheaper seats, but expected to sit where he always had for Forest's first season in the Premier League for 23 years. He said he wants to raise awareness of the issue because he's not found anything about this posted by the club, and fears a number of fans will have been affected.
