Current update reposted from page 38


Quite liked these posts at first, but not arsed now.  Don't take that the wrong way mate, it's just that it's so much of a shambles and so many weirdo's have ilfiltrated our away ends that I can no longer be arsed to go on the odd occasions when it does drop to 12.

No offence taken. I have done it this far so may as well see it through. We all know Watford will be done on 18, maybe a few scraps on 17. West Ham some will go missing as it's a new ground and last away.

See how it goes next season, but with no transparency it is a worry

My only problem with that is it'd price out some of the away regulars, and judging by the ever declining standards of our away support it's something I wouldn't want to see.

Away matches open to all who can afford the ridiculous home prices every week on top of travel and tickets for away's, nah.

Imagine having the Anfield #LFCFam filling an away end.  Nah, there's already too many nob's who have somehow (fuck knows how) jumped on the away band wagon.

I do feel for you though.  Maybe some kind of vouching system is needed.

I'd stand at the turnstile myself and tell people whether they meet my undefined criteria or not, except I'm not hard enough.

ABJ would be the ideal person to do if he wasn't wool.  A Scouse version of ABJ who can either let the person pass to the turnstile or confiscate the ticket and redistribute it at face value to Scousers or meet my undefined criteria of a 'good wool'. 

'Half decent wools' allowed if there's any unredistributed tickets left.

I'd like to see young adults with 15+ home credits stuck into a ballot for aways, I don't see enough 17-21 year olds who would go away and sing their heart out, maybe a youthful outlook could improve the away end maybe?

The problem is there is hardly any lads in that age bracket that would have 15+ home games.

Bulk sales months in advance of the games are not really suited to 17-21 year olds. Most people I know can't be arsed with the hassle of it all.

I am hard enough and more than happy to stand at the turnstiles and offer appropriate advice to those who shouldn't be there.   On your own you look like a right knob, needs most (if not all) of those who do qualify to enter to make a stand.  Problem is like most things these day, the majority can't be arsed.

Interesting to see what Brighton would do with their away end if they go up. Think they currently give entire end to away fans. Would imagine though they would do as Burnley have this season and give some of these to home fans due to likely high demand.

As little as they can get away with. Should give more though seeing as they screwed visitors this season. Even with the works their capacity is still 30k+ so no excuse for reducing allocation.

They will probably give about 5000 to be fair, given the size of Wembley it would be bizarre to give any less to be honest. They have shown they can sell out Wembley, but have given a sizeable away allocation in Champions League if requested

I reckon they will give just over 3000 like United do! Old Trafford isn't far off 90 thousand and they only give just over 3

Has anyones tickets to Stoke arrived yet? I bought two on Monday last week but no sign, then Thursday I bought one for West Brom and that arrived on Saturday. Bizarrely, two more that i didn't order for West Brom just landed through the door today in the seats beside the one I actually bought. Really weird!

I do feel for you though.  Maybe some kind of vouching system is needed.

I'd stand at the turnstile myself and tell people whether they meet my undefined criteria or not, except I'm not hard enough.

ABJ would be the ideal person to do if he wasn't wool.  A Scouse version of ABJ who can either let the person pass to the turnstile or confiscate the ticket and redistribute it at face value to Scousers or meet my undefined criteria of a 'good wool'. 

'Half decent wools' allowed if there's any unredistributed tickets left.

Leicester                  3305          2
Southampton          3312          3

Just a couple of questions: what did Watford sell out on in the 1st round of sales? And what did Stoke sell out with returns?

So I've ended up with 10 aways from 14 last season.  But we have received more away tickets for all bar 2 of the 17 teams who were in the PL last season, we got 466 less from Spurs due to their redevelopment of WHL & for some reason Chelsea gave us 18 less tickets this season.  The 3 promoted sides all gave us smaller allocations than the 3 relegated sides from last season (Newcastle 3185 vs Boro 3040, Villa 2982 vs Hull 2564 & Norwich 2600 vs Burnley 2414).

It will be interesting to see how the away allocations pan out next season

You are funny.

All joking aside, Spurs and Hull sold out super fast on 15 as very few remained. So will be some 15s who finished on 13 or 14. Likewise for Watford and Swansea, some 17s will have finished on 16 or 15.

But yea, once a game drops below 15 next season, it should fall rapidly to 10. But we all know that won't happen

Think when originally muted they were talking of a 60k maximum capacity for their matches at Wembley - presumably so they don't get financial advantage

If true it seems mad to have seats wasted!

Common sense (floored already) would be let them sell all and any extra revenue get it to charity

I reckon we will end up with 3 thousand up on the 3rd tier in one of the corners!
Part of the way support must be pitch side from next season.

i watched the chelsea game at my sisters. her 12 year old son is severly autistic and i forgot myself and jumped up screaming at the goal and he went nuts. screaming and shouting. scared the fuck out of me. apologised to my sister as i thought id upset him, turns out he was joining in.

Sure I read somewhere they've been granted permission to use 90 thousand for all games!
They have been granted permission for 90k for every home game:

Doesn't it still mean we only get 3k as PL rules state away fans get the lower of 10% or 3k?
