Forest_for_life Posted March 5, 2007 Report Share Posted March 5, 2007 We have been given 3000 tickets for the Wedlock Stand. We are very likely to sell out so is there another 1000 on offer? Whats the full capacity of your away end? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whats the full capacity of your away end?It's about 5,500 but we might use the rest of it as an overflow for our fans. If the league table is similar on March 31st we'll get close to a sell out.

Jamie Posted March 5, 2007 Report Share Posted March 5, 2007 All depends on how many we sell, if we sell our lot then the other 1,500 will be given to us and a 1,000 seats empty for segregation, however if we ain't pushing the 17k then more will probly be given to you, the EE or to you Wedlock holds 5,500 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Horsman Posted March 5, 2007 Report Share Posted March 5, 2007 Realistically I would guess that you have had the full allocation, esp with our respective league positions. there will be a capacity crowd, and as other posters have suggested, the segregation will be to the detriment of away fans, as that could be another 500-1000 tickets.I would imagine that the game will be made all ticket by the end of next week, esp. if results go our way midweek and Saturday.We have a large amount of regulars who are not s/t holders who will want to see the Forest/Yeovil and Swansea matches.

I doubt it. 3k would be their limit, and we'd get the rest of the East End. Only if we've fallen away by then, and a sell out isn't expected, would Forest get a bigger allocation than that.

Imagine Forest having 5,000 and us only having a maximum of 14,000! It'd be like giving them a 12th man aswell! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forest_for_life Posted March 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2007 Give us 5000 . I think last year we took about 3000 but there wasnt much riding on that game compared to this one. Agogo is on firo. Bargain signing that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agogo is on firo. Bargain signing that one.You bought 2,100 odd and you were going for the play offs. So that's about half of what we took to yours this season, and less than the mighty Yeovil managed last season! Surely you wouldn't sell 5,000 if you had the chance? No matter how many of your boys decide to come for some revenge.Agogo will get a few boos from our lot, guaranteed, but I'm sure him being a saghead will mean he'd love to score against us.

Irrelevant to league position, which team do you think is your biggest attraction in this hellhole of a league?You are probably despite the fact you've been here a while the big club debate goes beyond league position. I hope we get the chance to match the away support you brought to the City Ground. Are the coppers going to prepare big for this one? We have had no trouble since we last played you although the whole revenge thing over Amici might put that out the window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure our coppers will be aware of what happened in Nottingham and will expect your lot to want some revenge. When we played Millwall and Bristol Rovers the area was swamped with police, so I expect it'll be the same when you come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So your away end holds 5,500 but 1000 seats are lost to segregation and possibly more for City fans if you get the demand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke_Ciderhead Posted March 5, 2007 Report Share Posted March 5, 2007 Giving Forest 5000 tickets would be just stupid when we can surely sell out the ground ourselves for a massive game like this.It will probably be the same arrangements as the Plymouth and QPR games a few years ago...The east end split between home and away supporters, approx 2500 tickets for Forest.We will surely sell out Ashton Gate for this one right?

Perhaps the passion from the days of the Plymouth and QPR games have gone to some extent, but the Boro game at least reminded people that City are still around, and playing good football sometimes. The run in to the end of the 2003/2004 saw a few capacity crowds in a row, so hopefully the same will happen this year.At the very least Forest, Swansea, Yeovil and Rotherham should be 17,000+ attendances. Brentford may be nearer 13,000 helped by the East End being open, probably Bradford 12,000+ then we can look forward to some healthy attendances (presuming results are good of course).

So your away end holds 5,500 but 1000 seats are lost to segregation and possibly more for City fans if you get the demand?Correct, the away end holds about 5,500. They will give you an initial 3,000 tickets. If the demand is huge from our end (which I think it will be) there will be a segregation of around 1,000 seats which means there could be 1,500 city fans on the other end of the Wedlock. I hope to god theydon't give you the whole end, that stand is deafening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
