Hi all As an exile I wanted to go to the Stevenage game but nothing showing on town website or Twitter about tickets. Called today and town are expecting 700 tickets later this week. I don't know (as I am not one) but I assume they will be for season ticket holders at least initially and with this being a game that people can get to on the train then I would expect us to sell out. I looked on Stevenage website and it directed me to http://www.borotickets.co.uk. You can book tickets now for the game which I have done, so an opportunity for those exiles among use to get to an away game and I know there are lots of you in the south and London that would want to go. The max you can book online is 6 and I needed 10 so I called the club on 01438 223223. Ticket office is option 4 but it is also the club shop so could be busy. I tried a few times and got no answer so called the main line and someone sent them an email for me and a nice lady called Janet called back within 5 mins. Very friendly and very efficient, she booked over the telephone and is sending them through the post (£2.50 charge and need signing for on delivery). The website is easy to view and you can choose your tickets in one of 2 blocks that they currently have available, the greyed out seats are the tickets being sent to the club so you can only book in blocks d and e (note e is the family block). Cost is £22 for adult as it is a cat A game and discount already applied and under 16 £10 and under 12 £8. Hope that is useful for some of you exiles. Look forward to seeing you all there. UTFM

So an exile can get 10 tickets yet a season ticket holder can't? Bit of role reversal?

According to the [url=http://www.footballgroundguide.com/leagues/england/league-two/broadhall-way-stevenage.html]football ground guide[/url], the away end holds up to 1,400 supporters and part of the Main Stand can also be given to visiting supporters, bringing the total allocation up to 2,000. I wouldn't think we would need more than that. Having said that, even if it's not all-ticket, I may well get one from the Stevenage site to save aggrevation on the day Thanks for the heads-up Posh Harry

Suspect it'll be 4 figures who go, London exiles and people like me who haven't been before.

I've been a few times, its a small ground and the away end is possibly the best stand. Don't park in the car park across the road though as it takes ages to get out, there is parking in the near by retail parks some are controlled some are not. There are three pubs close to the ground that are usually away friendly but that may change when they see the volume of town fans coming. I would drink closer to the ground than in the Towncentre as anything that looks like a football crowd in that part of town will send the locals into meltdown.
