We're back in the Lower Centenary again so presumably Wolves are taking the full Anny Road End

There will be around 44000 with Plymouth of which at least 42000 will end up with getting Wolves.   Carry this on to the semi if we get there with home draws them there will be something like 40000 with 4 homes.  So with a semi allocation of 31500 and at least a couple of thousand tickets hived off to sponsors, players etc, it is going to be a mad scramble.  So 29500 for 40000 fans.  I imagine most of those that have Plymouth away will have all the homes by then so take 2500 off with 5 credits and this will leave 27000 tickets for 37500 fans.  All guess work and hypothetical scenarios but there will be loads with all homes who will miss out on a semi ticket.  Likely any sale would go to ST holders first so loads of manners with all homes would miss out.

No chance 40k will have all 4 homes. Some people don't just go to games for the credit. Others can't offload spares in time so won't buy at all. Of course if we get away draws in the mext 2 rounds it's more likely (only 2 matches to have ALL 2).
I always said we had the best two teams on Merseyside… Liverpool and Liverpool Reserves.

The thought had crossed my mind that the more we let in the harder it will be!   Thankfully the Plymouth away insurance document is tucked safely away.  If we get past Wolves could do with an away with a big allocation so more of the regular away fans are guaranteed.

A replay at wolves would tick that box I guess ~4500?!

Got a few mates with West Ham. They are in a selfish way hoping for replay against Woles and a chance to get another credit. Told them I'm not sure that only West Ham will be enough, they should use a few more credits to make it fair to the people that attended matches in the past.
But maybe with it being short noticed and the TO just wanna get the tickets sold they'll do Plymouth and West Ham 2/2 guaranteed and 1/2 for the remaining.

But once again this is wild speculations for selling criterial for a match that may never be played..  :-\

It's in the context of hoping for final ticket though.

Personally hope we get some big away allocations so I can get more my own card so it's less hassle for future aways.

Three games off, one of them at home to lower league opposition. Reached two semi's in each of the last two seasons. Not saying we should all get worked up about it but it's a real possibility.

Makes me a bit nervous (as a member) for any potential EFL Final should we come through next Wednesday's game.

Not the first time that's happened this season either, where STH are given a priority sale over members and fan card holders with the same criteria.

It's hardly priority if everyone is guaranteed a ticket in those sales. It just reduces the potential strain on the website which we all know is garbage.

The potential issue is when STH and Members are split when everyone isn't guaranteed a ticket.

We'll both get £20

The potential issue is when STH and Members are split when everyone isn't guaranteed a ticket.

And that 'potential issue' is the exact thing that's making me nervous. Last season in the League Cup all home sales were done together (STH, Members, FCH with 'x' amount of games), and that obviously included the final too, which was done in the same way.

But I've noticed a few times this season that Cup sales are getting split for those with the same qualifying criteria. Of course, if everyone's guaranteed a ticket for a home game, I agree - no issue really.

But it's when potential Wembley allocations start getting brought into it, when everyone might not be guaranteed...

Season Ticket Holders Have Allways Had DIbs Over Members when It's down to the crunch and It shouldn't really Change as you need a deciding factor sometimes. (Unfair to some but the way it's been see Bournmouth Away this season)

The biggest fear for all of the 50/50's should be the extra 7-8,000 corporates and additional sponsors that keep getting in bed with the club they are going to expect preferential treatment.

Looking at the number of tickets left for STH who have Plymouth still left to go....not a huge left.

Will be tough for a member with Plymouth.  Can't see all getting it.

no chance upper anny will get released. Wolves have taken all 8500 of anfield road and advertised the fact.

given close proximity to the game the club will have sold them to wolves and stated no returns i would have thought. wolves are plenty big enough to sell them all especially as they ahve advertised a general sale to their fans
