Away allocations

[Jonathan]

Obviously people are somewhat pissed off at not getting a ticket to Derby on Saturday and that they only gave us an allocation of 2,800 so I thought I would look into what various Premier League teams offer for IF we go up next season as I'd imagine demand would be somewhat similar for many Premiership games.

The allocations (from official sites) are as follows:

Arsenal - up to 2,914
Aston Villa - up to 2,600
Birmingham - up to 4,200 (initial allocation much less)
Blackburn - 1,585 (more if needed)
Bolton - up to 3,500
Burnley - 2,400
Chelsea - 1,400 (more if needed - up to 3,000)
Everton - up to 2,939
Fulham - up to 2,900
Hull - 2,500
Liverpool - 3,200
Man City - 3,000 (more if needed - up to 4,500)
Man Utd - 3,000
Portsmouth - 2,000 initially and up to 3,000 if needed
Stoke - 2,340
Sunderland - 2,000 initial (up to 3,500)
Spurs - 1,700 initial (more if required - up to 3,000)
West Ham - 2,200 (more if required)
Wigan - up to 4,600
Wolves - up to 2,677

Many of those are no more than Championship sides so I'm sure there'll be just as much trouble getting tickets for the 'big' games should we go up.

It's a good job we're not ready for promotion, then.

It may be that the demand is less because of the televised matches - there are a lot of 'faithfull' supporters who find that their settee is more appealing than a two and a half hour trip to watch football on a cold winters day.

I am sure that we didn't sell all of our 1800 allocation to Cardiff.

Something the club needs to sort for next season

the most shocking one of those has got to be man u at 3000 no wonder london is so quiet when they are at home there are 64,000 cockneys at old trafford

Chelsea is surprisingly low for the first allocation.

 

[thehockleyhustler]

Looking at that, we certainly shouldn't be giving away 4,500 + if we get to the Prem. 2000 max with the rest of Bridgford stand being Forest fans.

Knowing Forest though we will give the away club whatever they ask for

Away allocations are notoriously low in the premiership, thats why we need to do a stoke and cut the away end in half.

Just give em the Brian Clough lower

 

[Flaggers]

Just give em half the Brian Clough lower

:wink:

 

[thehockleyhustler]

Just give em the Brian Clough lower

If Mr Davies gets his way (he often does) It will happen

Getting the away fans out of the Bridgford Lower was one of Billy's stated desires as aired at the recent "Audience With..." evening.

Hopefully, as you say THH - what Billy wants, Billy gets....

we will see about that when marthur screws our transfers in the next couple of days

 

[Flaggers]

Now now - I am told by many on here that Marthur is the saviour of the club and the man most responsible for something or other.....

Can't say I believe it myself, though...
