After asking if we will take a further allocation of tickets this morning I have now had a call that if the first allocation sells out quickly enough there will be more, but if it sells slowly so that Southampton have sold all but the rest of the away allocation, then they will sell the balance to home fans and we will get no more. This is what happened when they came to us and they sold their initial allocation before we sold out all the other stands and so they were able to have the full 4000

The website normally states if it is unreserved seating, However, i might be wrong... but i know that was the case for Preston & Brizzle this year.
Therefore im guessing its reserved seating for Saints as the website doesnt state anything.

It'll be reserved. They're expecting a good following to travel, so they're very unlikely to say sit where you like gr8 m8.

I think we may do - we sold 2,000 for Bristol City and So'ton is closer (and as easy to get to) than Brizzol.

I'd hope we would - what else is there to do on a Sunday?

Almost certainly it'll be reserved seating - you tend to only get unreserved where the capacity of the area is much bigger than the number of tickets sold (like at Barnsley or Burnley). Unreserved capacity is always approx. 10-20% less than reserved capacity, because of the way people leave spaces between groups.

You get an exemption due to your AST a couple of years ago - remind us again how much did that season cost you as I don't think you've mentioned it recently :wink: :lol:

I can see them selling the 1800+ and then asking for a whole lot more.
