Emma Grant says her and her father had sat in the same seats to watch their team play for decades.
It may just be a plastic seat in a football stadium, but for fans the position from which they watch their team play is about so much more, shown by the outpouring of emotion from Norwich City supporters after The Canaries revealed a revamp of Carrow Road.
The Canaries' stadium was renovated across four phases, including away fans being moved to a new area from the start of next season.
It means more than 3,000 season-ticket holders who sit in the lower tier of the River End and part of the South Stand will be moved.
A club statement acknowledged that senior staff "fully understand" this will bring a "big change" for some and pledged to try and help friends and families to remain sitting together "where possible".
However, while the changes are geared towards a long-term plan to rebuild the ageing City Stand, some supporters have reacted angrily to new set-up and a lack of prior consultation.
Football family
Emma Grant usually watches games in the River End lower tier with her seven-year-old daughter, who has been a season ticket holder since she was five weeks old.
For Ms Grant, the changes have had a sentimental impact.
"Prior to going with my little girl, I used to go with my late Dad who died 12 years ago and we we went for many, many, years, decades since I was a little girl myself and we always sat in the same seats," she said.
"When he passed away, the club let me retain that ticket for my godson... and when my little girl was born we jumped at the chance to change the seat into her name to keep that family tradition going. So, it's got real sentimental value to us."
Ms Grant said she was upset with the way Norwich City has handled the announcement and believed there should have been a consultation before any changes were made.
Speaking to Rob Butler on BBC Radio Norfolk's The Scrimmage, Ms Grant added: "There's my daughter and I who buy a season ticket together and those who sit around us who become our football family... we wouldn't want to move away from them either."
Social bonds
For Jason Brooks, it was the timing of the announcement which took him "aback". However, he hoped fans who have become friends in the stands would stay in touch no matter where they sit.
"I have only been a season ticket holder with my son and my wife for the last four seasons and we've been in the lower River End and you do get to know people, you see familiar faces, you speak at half-time, you speak during the game," he said.
"I can understand the fear of being moved and the impact on mental health... with a bit of luck, these fans that sit with each other can roughly be moved in the same area so social bonds don't have to be broken."
From attending fan forums, he said new developments and upgrades at the stadium was something people have been calling for.
He said: "Within reason, I am happy to sit anywhere within Carrow Road and watch the game, although not at the moment... I'm sick and tired of leaving Carrow Road with a loss. It's soul destroying."
Sense of community
The changes have divided some supporters, with Matt Colley, saying he has seen some people "absolutely beside themselves" on social media.
He said: "I've seen so much in recent days... about the years they've been sitting together with their friends and everything that means, in terms of the culture and community around the club.
"Which the club are very happy to appease when they do their mental health videos, which were brilliant and gained millions of views and lots of traction, and I have no doubt they did it for the right reasons but where's that sense of community now?"
The Canaries have submitted initial plans for minor changes to the stadium and intend to submit further proposals for a new fan zone behind the Barclay Stand in January.
Mr Colley added: "They are just uprooting people to build more burger bars... Fans need their voices to be heard.
"We want our voices to be heard and mobilised. Talk to each other, let them [the club] know how much it matters and how much we care."
The club declined to comment when contacted by the BBC about the negative reaction of some fans.
An open evening about the upcoming changes will be held at Carrow Road on Wednesday evening.
