Sorry, away supporter tickets are not currently available online for this event.

Away fans: please only buy tickets in the Away areas. if you buy a Home ticket you won't be allowed into the ground.

Whats wrong with that? It is their home game - what do you want them to do allow a free for all with all the trouble that would create?

If it goes down to the last game.. I live in Somerset and was going to try get tickets in the home end for myself, my 4 year old son and a 9 year old. Not exactly going to cause trouble are we. I can see why they're being cautious but to say people registered to their website can't even get tickets unless they where registered before 2 months ago is mad. But  I guess being over cautious is better than under cautious. Just think of all those 100s of new Fgr fans that will have to miss out

If it goes down to the last game they’re probably already shiting themselves as to what will happen if they condemn us to the conference.........

It's not on. It makes it extremely difficult for exiles (or neutrals, for that matter) to obtain tickets.
Worth reporting to FSF?

FGR have always been awkward. In the conference days they were awkward. They have the away stand which is standing and they have 200 seats allocated for the elderly and disabled away supporters unless your Grimsby in which case we don’t get them. I took issue with this as I’m disabled and my Dad’s 84 and we didn’t want to stand. They basically told us tough luck. Arseholes..........

Probably best to keep that to yourself before you stitch up anyone else planning on doing something similar

it is similar to what town did last year regarding tickets for anyone with an LN postcode. That covers caistor.  Think it may have been Lincoln game or something similar.

It shouldn't be FGR that feels the wrath of Town fans if we go down again. There is only one person responsible and he should be the target of any protest.

Unless you registered to their site over 3 months ago grant or live within a few miles of the ground and can walk to the ticket office you won't get a ticket. So I am not stitching anyone up.

Why should FGR make home tickets available for away teams?  You should go through GTFC to get tickets.  I do feel your pain being an exile myself, but FGR has done nothing wrong here, just look at Burton in 2010 at what could/might happen.
