Rugeley Villa Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 When someone can’t have something, they want it more. Let’s hope that’s what happens with tickets home and away . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rugeley Villa Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Just now, Kingman said: I think we should make the away end smaller, Just give them the upper witton and that will release a few hundred in the corner that's always left empty for segregation with the lower North stand That could bite us on the arse regarding away tickets at other places. Also it won’t work because away fans will be entering the Doug Ellis stand with home fans and it will complicate things . I just hope the atmosphere is good next season. That North Stand lower tier should try and replicate the South Stand at Leeds. Flags , scarves being swung around and a great atmosphere. It’s right next to the away fans too.

Season ticket holders won't like it if they can't have their seat for cup games - even if they are told this at the time of purchase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not all away fans get 3k, I imagine those couple of blocks in the lower witton are cira 800 so logistically it wouldn't take much to split the difference with North stand and Lower witton entrances Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would Just use them as match day only tickets in those couple of blocks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the supporters meeting they said that they have to give the larger amount to teams as part of an agreement with the league. Because of the larger allocation, part of the Lower North won't be used this season, so our capacity is slightly reduced. It's the other way - there are less tickets this year because the away end is larger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully with some new decent barriers to stop them getting on the pitch .....never understood why we allow that....even the Trinity is more fenced in than the Away fans and I can’t think of any other top ground where the Awaybsupport can spill onto the pitch so easily. Anyway, to the STs, i agree, it’s fantastic. I do feel for those that want to join the fun but won’t get in, but it’s great to know we will be stood in a full ground every week, just brilliant.

S-Platt Posted July 17, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted July 17, 2019 With Regards to away allocation do we know when the smaller clubs visit that only bring 500 fans will there be a chance for our fans to take up the empty seats? Are they selling block by block for instance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutByEaster? Posted July 25, 2019 Moderator Share Posted July 25, 2019 With over 8,000 on the waiting list, and the only "new" tickets available next summer being those that this season's season ticket holders give up, I'd say there's a fair chance that if you're on the end of that waiting list and we have a reasonable time of it on the pitch, you could well be on there for the next four or five years.

BTW, Anyone know if i can sell/donate my seat if i cannot make a game? If so how it works? Some midweek games i will not be able to book off work most likely and a shame to waste a couple of seats (daughter has one too but she can't go if i can't...& no you can't take her either lol! ) Edited July 26, 2019 by danceoftheshamen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sid4ever Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 Is anybody else having an issue uploading ecash to their season ticket, I have tried for weeks now, and I keep being told the financial institution has declined the top up. This has happened on every single bank card I have so hoping it's a glitch and not because the Mrs has spent all my money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
