PNE tickets for Swindon game

[Indian Dan]

Any idea why PNE have only allocated 1650 tickets for Swindon fans at Deepdale?

Just an initial allocation I imagine. It's our last home game and if we have won promotion/can win promotion we will probably put home fans in the Kop. I'm sure if you sell them you will get more

 

[Indian Dan]

I thought initial allocations for away fans was 2300 with the entire stand (4000) being available if needed

It'll probably go up to 3,000 and if you sell them you will get the whole 4,500.

Just keeping our options open, the game is over a month away still

If you sell them, you will get more.

I'd like to think PNE have plans to open up half of the Kop to home fans.

What's the situation with the City game, then?

Bristol City were allocated a similar amount initially, from what I can tell.

I'm not sure what your issue is.

We can't win promotion in that game, realistically we won't sell out the home ends.

Bristol City have better away support.....

 

[Indian Dan]

I don't have any issue - just wondering what the situation is.

If promotion between us rests on our game our away support will be more than Bristol will bring for what will probably just be another game for them.

Not if you only get half a stand.

 

[Indian Dan]

Exactly my point

Exactly my point

The game is a month away, i'm sure North End are keeping their options open in terms of ticketing allocations.

I presume you've sold this measly 1,650 with all this frantic worrying.

 

[Indian Dan]

Fuck me, only asking.

The biggest problem when trying to allocate tickets for Swindon is that 90% of their fanbase get in on one family ticket.

Not if its the game where we can clinch promotion.

Fair enough. When is the game?

April 11th.

Ah, the day I'll be a City fan!

'Drink up thee cider!'

We got allocated 1,100 initially and sold that fairly quickly, second allocation came in last week.

Indian Dan I can't see your lot taking more than us there, we could clinch the title/get promoted that day, and we'll sell the maximum 4,500 I presume, so there's no topping that.

Sounds like you may not get the same allocation as us anyway - get your tickets fast!

I thought you were getting promoted against us!

However much City fans would love it to happen, it's a very unlikely scenario.

This isn't you, is it Dan lad?

Great little thread.

Post #9 is comedy gold.

 

[Indian Dan]

To be fair, the bit about Blackpool is correct. Our entire minibus had tickets for the home end, as did hundreds of others.

The Friday night was a hoot

Not my thread - never in peace!

That was the plan but your call offs have made it very unlikely now. We also could have to win for the title. We are taking a big following to Deepdale.

 

[Indian Dan]

I'll be supporting you all the way for that one!

I know we've had some spats along the way, but congrats on your successful season

Thank you kindly Sir but we've done nothing yet apart from the JPT.
