Just to briefly introduce myself - I am a trainee journalist and am presently writing an article about how traditional supporters have become alienated in the SKY age. The ariticle is not intended for publication anywhere, but will be submitted as part of my course work.

I am particularly keen to get the opinion of any Newcastle United supporters who have been moved from their seats in order to make way for corporate fans.

Comments from Chelsea supporters who have stuck by the Blues through good times and bad, and now find themselves paying �800 a season ticket, would also be appreciated. Similarly, are you a long-term Man U regular who now has to sit next to prawn-sandwich Essex man?

If any supporter, from any club, feels they have something worthwhile to add to the debate then please get in touch.

Incidentally, I am a season ticket holder at QPR. I know pain!
