I find it really strange how they do these.

Surely 90+ is fine for day 1 which covers around half the available tickets if everyone in that bracket bought one.

50-80 is ridiculous. Imagine being on 79 and having the same opportunity as someone on 50.

I really don’t understand our thinking with this system at times.

I’d like to know the thinking behind the bandings. Perhaps to give preference to the top points people to get preferential seating. They should open new bands up at 9am then 1pm. Get two bands made available in a day.


Gazlaz, may I ask you a genuine and well-intentioned question?

Could you give me 3 things which you feel our club does well?

As a Rovers supporter, which I presume you to be, I assume there must be some aspects of the experience which you enjoy, respect or admire?

I just struggle sometimes to understand what enjoyment you get from supporting the Rovers.

There are 1985 tickets and 2257 people with 80+ points. I'm in that bracket and won't be buying one if it doesn't get to the 50+ bracket as my dad's on 78. Que cera.
If 88% of elegible people up to and including Wednesday buy a ticket and they sell out, so be it, I hope you all have a great day out and I'll be supporting from home.

No matter where the club put the cut off for these brackets somebody is going to be left disappointed.

How many of that allocation go to players families etc?

I heard there was an issue with the lower tier at county being closed for concourse issues .i think I have found the issue .

Notts County's away stand concourse areas at Meadow Lane have had some issues related to accessibility and accessibility toilets. While the stand is located in the Jimmy Sirrel Stand and access is via the County Road turnstiles, concerns have been raised about the wheelchair accessible toilets, which are located in a separate portacabin and may not be ideal. Additionally, some fans have mentioned that the catering options can be challenging to reach from the away stand, and some stewards have been praised for their helpfulness and responsiveness to the needs of disabled fans.

Surely clubs can’t come to some sort of arrangement to sort this. County are missing out on big chunks of revenue .and fans are missing out on games .

Hi mate.My understanding is that the safety advisory group have stipulated the restriction on numbers in that particular stand.
We ( the shadow board) have worked long & hard with our club to reach even this number.
To be fair to County they are a well run with a good bloke as their CEO. Our club hierarchy have an excellent relationship with Magpies officials.

So how is it allocated? The whole side of the ground but not the lower half? Or other way around? Half the side of the pitch now? Tight allocation is going to cause the usual grumbles between sit and stand for sure

What time on the date stated do tickets go on sale? Do the online ones start the same time as the ticket office opens? I always thought it was 9am on the day they are reported to go on sale - is that right?

Looks like there is a block of ~100 tickets blocked out. Presume these are for players families and staff.

Scrap that, looks more like 200 with blocked our seats in another block thats appeared.

330ish sold by my maths. 483 people with enough points to purchase.

Its 1hr 30mins on the train with 1 change at Grantham, 14 mins walk from the station to the ground. We've had far worse to contend with.

Yes we have, to say how far it is it takes longer than it should though. Genuinely thinking about getting a taxi.

You can get via Sheffield also. Similar sort of time.
If anyone goes via Grantham, there is a nice real ale spot on platform one. Called the whistle stop. Usually have a decent tipple or two on tap.

Tickets taking a hammering so far today. Got mine but I don’t think they’ll last until Thursday when the wife and young un are eligible.

He’s clearly giving it a lot of thought.
