More than 100 Scunthorpe United supporters queued for tickets this morning as excitement builds for their play-off semi-final against Rotherham United.

From the Scunthorpe telegraph website. Partisan lot and no mistake.

Moaning about the 1200 allocation set by Rotherham..

Worried it will spread their support too thinly and ruin their atmosphere for such a big game..

If it was us, the 1200 would have already gone.

I'd love to have it a couple of years where we have all of Us, Scunny and Lincoln in the same league, preferably L1, if we're being realistic.

They want to be thankful for 1200 - Exeter have given us 350.

Yes but they have given everyone 350 all season due to the redevelopment of the stadium

Yeah I know they have, but it is clearly a decent advantage. Personally I would have given them 350 too, but we have given them 1k.

hope Rotherham beat them.

irks me that in the 15 years or so I have lived over here Scunny have been at least 1 division sometimes 3 above us. despite the fact no fooker watches em.

As much as they have over achieved at times it reflects how urine poor we've been. 15 years in their shadow is scandalous.

You mean you're experiencing the same problem with Exeter that we had with you nearly every season? Limited number of tickets (c1800) when we could have easily sold 50% more when you had plenty of empty space at the Bank.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Hopefully we can get promoted with MJ and take 5,000 to Glanford Park on Boxing Day 2019, away end or otherwise.

Bit of a difference with 1800 to 350. Only the same this season as you  giving us a certain amount when we could have sold more. We've taken 5k and nearly 4k to Counteh and Coventry so could have sold more at BP. Things are a little different here now but we have always given you more than the minimum 10% we have too - Next year everyone will get a maximum of 1k at SB.

And where would your fans have gone in BP? Other than the odd seats here and there it was full in the home end as well. The point KM was making was that until you had any success, the home end was less than half full against us but you wouldn't give us any more tickets.

Segregation would have been the issue I would Imagine.
Irrelevant now, SB is full every game (Bar away support) - Which is why we are moving.

Not so long ago, 350 for you to take to Exeter would have been pushing it when you could barely manage many more at our place.

This is not a dig along the lines of 'our support is better than yours, so yah boo sucks!'. Just pointing out the irony. Remember where you've come from, and where you might end up again, and reflect on this Exeter situation next time us Cods are moaning about not being able to get enough tickets when you have acres of empty seats.
