Ashley Posted 27 November 2016 Posted 27 November 2016 Our away end holds just over 3,200. Are we giving teams less as no one seems to be selling our away end out this season. Only Arsenal and Palace have done so. Whilst it's good for the grass roots teams to get tickets I can't deal with the screeching women who were giving it large to the Middlesbrough fans yesterday - cringe
Matt Posted 27 November 2016 Posted 27 November 2016 I thought Boro bought about the most so far this season, obviously if Arsenal and Palace sold out i'm mistaken, but Boro travelled well I thought.

Because I believe rules state we have to offer the full 10% but if the club takes it they have to cover any unsold tickets. Whilst I guess 18000 quid is nothing to premier league clubs. If they don't think they can shift them all. Why take the risk.

Borough to be fair to then have sold out every fixture so far bar Sunderland which they had reduced allocation for previous trouble and standing.
Stadt Posted 27 November 2016 Posted 27 November 2016 L1 were chanting "Is that all you bring away" to Brugge when the allocation was reduced by us ffs
Russell sprout Posted 27 November 2016 Posted 27 November 2016 Abit off topic but with the family stand being next to away supporters, why are they doing bag checks in this stand alone, yestadays game and Brugge had massive tailbacks and both took 15 mins to get in, when I asked why the said it's for security, but haven't seen ques in other areas

Bert Posted 27 November 2016 Posted 27 November 2016 Always thought it was similar to what someone said in this thread. If they can't sell out they have to cover the costs because we can sell them therefore losing out on x amount of money.

Illusion35 Posted 28 November 2016 Posted 28 November 2016 There are bag searches the other side of the away fans too at the turnstiles into K block. No real queues, but most don't take bags in - maybe a lot more bags being taken into family stand with stuff for children?
