This was my understanding, I just think Donnie excrement a brick to be honest which was why our allocation stayed as it was.

The fire alarm thing was odd because I’ve never seen it before, or heard it I guess. Happens every week at football and fire alarms never go off, they must have some weird overly sensitive system there. It won’t make a difference to allocations though.

As for Notts, for me, the issue is still the actual system we use to purchase tickets. I’ve got mine and everyone I know who wanted one got one but for me the anxiety is the system. It’s horrific, I’ve always been successful in my quest but that still doesn’t make it ok. I’m assuming it hasn’t fully sold out yet?

The ‘rumour’ that they can use the whole stand because of health and safety and the concourse has to be balderdash. We’ve had that full stand before and so have others, the issue with the concourse that day was the police kettling people in areas of it and the kiosk people just slamming down the shutters which in turn drunk people off. I’d imagine we could get another 500 at best. They’ll probably sell the rest to home fans and why wouldn’t they?

Let’s face it, we’ve cut our away allocation to accommodate home fans so we’re no different…


The away stand is definitely restricted below the amount of actual seats within the stand. As somebody has said the concourse size restrict the capacity. There are large areas of the stand where the seats aren’t even numbered and tickets aren’t sold.

Safety requirements have moved on since 1991 when they redeveloped Meadow Lane.

Went online at 8.30 this morning and ordered a pair of tickets for Notts game. No queue, hassle and done in minutes. Not sure how many tickets we have left though and am sure we will sell out the whole 2,900+

Don’t know if it still happens but some years ago, may of even been an FA Cup game,Town had to request “X” amount and pay for them wether all sold or not, then if all sold could request additional but again had to pay for them all, so if this still happens then obviously Town don’t want to risk having to pay for a load of tickets that are not purchased.


I am sure that was Chelsea after drawing 0-0 at home. They wanted Town to buy tickets for the seats in the temporary stand behind the goal before even selling them to Town fans.

Not sure if they actually ended up doing that but there were a fair few Town fans in those seats but not a sell out.

Yes it was the Chelsea game. They insisted on Town buying up the tickets to sell on. They wouldn't take them back again. We managed to shift nearly all of them.

Tbf think everyone was fine after we got the additional 900. I think with 2000 some would have missed out -  We sold 2000 at Donny away for a dead rubber game last year.

Be interesting to see if we do sell out the 2900 - we get similar for Bradford but rarely sell out. I reckon we'd got around 2000 that would definitely be heading to Donny, Bradford, Notts each time and then a few that bolster those numbers.

But if we don't get near to selling the full 2900 tickets, not sure we'll get offered them again at Notts as I think we have to pay for any returns

We will sell out. Apart from Brighton we rarely sell more than 2k to ST holders on a one for one basis but always shift plenty more when it gets to general sale.
