Season Tickets.

[sneezey15]

If we go could the club use lower school end for home season tickets, the demand will be there, or will they give away team whole end.

The whole school end to away fans

[stan_bowles]

Depends what rules the Premier League have regarding percentage of available seats have to be made to away fans.

Sure someone here must know.

10% min but the likes of Liverpool etc would sell out the school end. Also we have to have 10% which is not season tickets holders

The 10% non-ST holders would mean the home section surely?.

And 10%(away) of our capacity must be a full top tier,leaving the lower free?.

Do Man Utd really give 7600 tickets to away fans?.

It is my understanding that yes 10% of the home tickets have to be sold to none ST. On 10% to away fans that is my understanding have to be on offer. If te away club takes that up to them so yes 7600 tickets for Man Utd would needed to be on offer. On the ;
lower tire in school end can't see be given to home ST because there be less for the away fans as they would need to block to first 2 row in upper tire so they can't spit on the home fans.

At the moment they allocate the full top tier to away then close the overhanging lower rows to stop away fans dropping/spitting things on them when we have it.

Did not stop Wolves and Sheff Wed fans doing it to us in the past at their grounds.

Yea ope lower tire to ST and just wait for the complaining to start. Yes Sheff Wed and Wolves do it and don't agree but there home fans are on top tire. With this as a thought not give them the away fan lower school end and us upper

I thought the min 10% allocation of away tickets was just for cup matches.clubs can give what ever allocation they like for league games.

[martyhoop]

Chelsea certainly won't be giving us 4,000 tickets next season

[silvercue]

it is not 10%. Man U only have to give 3000 tickets for away fans.

The maximum any team in the Premier League is required to offer is 3000 tickets to away fans. The rule is 5% minimum up to a maximum of 3000 as far as I understand.

But then there are variances caused by stadium, safety, segragation regs etc.

There is usually a precedent set by previous demand also, so clubs can offer more.

So we can't simply offer 900 tickets. We could try, but there would likely be repurcussions.

However, we can just offer upper School end and have done on many occassions. I sat School lower twice in recent times when we only gave upper to away fans.
