NcnsBcfc Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 Got my 4 x general seating this morning from the sun lounger in Cephalonia. What a response from supporters there. 2600 tickets available, with 1750 sold in 25 mins. General seating all sold out, with only safe standing left (749 at present). It'll all be gone in the next hour or so. No idea if they'll let us have anymore of course (unlikely), but fair play to everybody so far and an indication, that even with the new sky sports + coming, people still want to go to decent away games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1960maaan Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 I think the 2,600 is the full allocation. Glad I jumped in and got our 4 early. Train tickets came in at £56 each so not too bad all round, decent day out expected. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvio Dante Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 As ever with these, the seats keep coming back in - 190 In general, 603 in safe standing now available. Great effort and like @NcnsBcfc I procured from my sun lounger this morning to pitch in with three safe standing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Popodopolous Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 Do we know the size of their Safe Standing Allocation Home and Away? I am all for it fwiw, I just think ours perhaps could do with some expansion and or a 2nd Home Zone. Obviously there would need to be a proportion to Away Fans on top.

Our home crowds have increased by % more than any Championship club since Covid despite 3 mid/lower mid table seasons with little to get excited about. Last season we averaged over 1400 away, selling out 11 matches with non sell out large followings at Stoke, Leeds and Forest on a Tuesday night. We’ve got great support, but I don’t know any of them that strut around like Gasheads claiming we’re a huge club. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Popodopolous Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 (edited) I'm a critic of Away Allocations but this is an example of a club who should and doubtless will get a good one at AG. What irks me is when we give a big one while a club with a similar or larger capacity give us 2k or similar. Reciprocation is fine.

We’ve been there 12 times in the last 16 years so there’s no novelty value to boost sales like when the Gas had their first visit to Pride Park in 2 decades a couple of seasons ago. I think they pitched the initial allocation fairly based on past sales. I don’t know why we’ve sold so many for this one? Probably a number of reasons but our away support last season was excellent. Couple that with the biggest increase in home crowds by % of any Championship club since Covid and it’s fair to say that as fans we’re doing our bit. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are normally available to collect from the shop on week days I believe. The shop only has limited hours though. The ticket office is never open after the match. Staff are often in on match days really early. You can't expect them to work 10 or 12 hour days every day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
