Would be interesting to see what would happen if hundreds of fans who couldn't get a ticket turned up on the night.

What would Notts plod rather do, have hundreds of drunk off Town fans wandering around Nottingham or let them into the ground (where they will obviously be plenty of room) where they know where they are and can keep an eye on them.

Quoted from mimma
What will be annoying is the stand will be half empty on the night, while our fans are trying desperately to get their hands on a ticket


Less than that mate. 2000 in a stand that holds 5700, restricted to 4400. They've also stopped taking new online registrations. So potentially putting off some genuine Notts fans, potential new supporters and the casual neutral. Genuine football supporters missing out on watching live division 5 football in a ground not even 2/3rds full and for what? A hack article?

It's an interesting thought Les. Will be able to find a city centre pub if you can't get in

My dad (GranthamMariner) went on at 10am to buy tickets. He finally got them at 13:20. He could have driven to BP and back in that time. It’s been a shambles, but at least it appears to be sorted now.

Hopefully the club will learn from their disastrous handling of today and if we beat Notts County the sale of even fewer tickets for Wrexham away will go better.

NB. The away section at Wrexham holds just over 1,200.

Looks like it will be sorted now, but just 2,000 tickets mean that some will be disappointed. If season ticket holders don't buy them all it will be chaos when they go on sale to members/stub holders. The club must do something as a free for all with online and ticket office sales simultaneously will be horrendous compared to today's fiasco.


While we are talking planning........When we beat Notts we will only be given around 1,200 tickets for Wrexham. They are already selling tickets for every block except the 6 blocks they give to away fans.  There has to be a ballot for these tickets.


If the football is bad you can always watch the gulls.

Corrected for you......

When demand exceeds supply there will always be problems. I don't think that there is a system out there that can satisfy everybody. There will always be fans that miss out and end up disappointed, it's the nature of the beast I'm afraid.

Yeah, it'll be 1200 max from Wrexham. That's going to be real fun getting a ticket for that one if we do win on Monday!
