But for Mansfield turning them over, Lincoln would be facing Liverpool in the 3rd round of the F.A. Cup. Had plans been put in place for allocation of tickets for that game, and if so, what was the ground capacity for it? Does it differ from the ground capacity limit for Town's visit, and if so, why?

Ground capacity dosn't change its currently just over 10000, I believe they can hold around 2300 away fans but that depends on how much segregation they put in between the away fans and home fans as they are both in the same stand. The stand holds 5700 altogther.
Playing us will be considered a high risk game by the police and requires more segregation hence why they have limited the away fans to 1747.
In the FA cup a visiting club is entitled to claim upto 15% of available tickets providing it is in a fully segregated area. So on that basis Liverpool could only claim upto around 1500 tickets and it would be down to Lincoln to provide more if they wished.

Officially 10,500 but with the standing area's they have you can cram more in unless Boston visit then it will be less due to the 5XL

I've often wondered why a Manchester & Glasgow derby can go ahead with a thin line of stewards and the odd bobby dotted between them, quite happily ...... but for an Imps/Cods fixture they need half the Stand as segregation as Lincs OB cack themselves with fear that its WW3 How on earth did their forefathers cope with Derby & Sheff Utd back in the 80's, now that was a real invasion?

Heard they have repaired the plastic seats in the stadium using the ones under the tarpauline so those seats now cannot be used. The capacity is around 9500.

Thank god for some sensible conversation. You're quite right Kev, been to Rome derby and Vienna derby this season, both of which went ahead without any problem. One could argue that the local rossers are trying to make a name for themselves. I will be in the home end due to all this stool water regards ticket allocation and I guess I'll won't be the only one.

Lincolnshire police are woeful at organising anything be it a football match, concert, market etc.
May be if they backed off, allowed fans to breathe so to speak and let the day flow everyone would be happier. However what will happen is a load of over zealous coppers claiming over time will herd and push people to places they don't want to go. They'll annoy people because they'll want to 'stamp their authority'. They'll assume everyone is semacbag who wants to fight in their knock off and snide stone island jumper tey got formas off the market and it'll just rile even the calmest man.

Right, so with The game being "high risk" why on earth are they not giving more allocation to town? I can only see this being so there is extra demand for police overtime as they know town fans WILL be going into the home areas. Season ticket holders not being moved is mumbo jumbo IMHO. LCFC could make (estimated) upwards of £10000 from selling an extra 500 or so seats. Is it just a case of the clubs and/or authority just cutting their noses off to spite their faces?

There hasn't been an incident with Lincoln since 2005 at there place i don't think so why the need for a over the top police presence , it will be the same at Mansfield on the 29th aswell Nottingham Police and them over the top mansfield stewards trying to kick as many town fans out for standing up , sharp objects !
