Surprised they don't give you the bottom, or at least some of it.

No chance of that.

Get the last tram from the centre and no-one will come round anyway as it’ll be rammed, or at least they didn’t when we went last season.

Tight git.

One Yorkshireman calling another Yorkshireman, a tight git

8,500 Brentford fans heading to The Emirates tonight. £10 tickets.

 

[JJH]

Villa have been allocated 3,440 because they’ve agreed to give us more than 3,000 at VP this season. Well negotiated that.

Can’t see how that will happen. 2700 max, id say.

Our supporters liaison officer has confirmed we can have over 3,000 if we need it as part of an agreement with your allocation.

Strange one really, but we shall see. I’m all up for giving clubs more if they need it. Not as if we sell out, or come close to selling out every home game, so plenty of room. What I’d do next season, is maybe have a block or two next to the official away end, and don’t sell season tickets in that part. Any big followings can then have more tickets, and for the smaller followings, those extra blocks can go on general sale to villa fans. Surprised we’ve sold what we have tbf, but our support this season has slightly improved on last season I think, especially at home.

Yeah it’s an impressive following at ours given you didn’t sell it out last year. Even Leeds have failed to sell out night games down here since we’ve come back up and that was only a 2,700 allocation.

We’ll see what happens with our game, unless we’re top six I doubt we’ll need more than 3k given it’ll be our third visit in three years but I’ve not looked up the date of the fixture yet, so could change.

 

[JJH]

Slightly odd...

 

[markwwfc1992]

I'd be pissed off being a Bristol City fan, lots of games being moved to Friday nights or Sunday mornings.

 

[blademan89]

1200 sold for Blackburn next Wednesday, will probably be more there than at millwall.

We're same, next Saturday game at home is against Norwich on 3rd November, this and away at Birmingham on 27th October are only Saturday games before playing Derby on 24th Nov.

Sold out away ends at Brentford and Wimbledon for Reading and Oxford respectively - Paddington could be fun...

Oxford and Reading the two softest fanbases I can imagine.

I wouldn’t say Oxford are.

 

[SoutheySWFC]

Can imagine the Reading mob running you down the road chucking Merlot minis and Pate sarnies at you.....

 

[UTS]

Plus sold out away ends at those grounds combined equals around 1,700. There will be no bother

Brentford allocate 1,700 alone mate.

Well I never.

Bloody Brentford and their bigger than expected allocations.

Waitrose better batten down the hatches in that case.
