Kings Lynn and Wealdstone tickets ?

Absolutely bizarre, a quarter of our allocation are for u18s.

What a tin pot league we are now in!

It really is, isn't it?

I was actually, once having accepted it, starting to look forward to some new grounds and renewing acquaintance with some old ones but it looks like the away clubs can't cope with our away support, sadly. So it doesn't look like I'll be travelling as much as I thought as I'll leave the tickets for those who have travelled day in day out for the last few campaigns.

There really seems to be no logic to the Wealdstone allocation. Are they seriously going to not sell tickets to someone because they're not in the right age group?
A seat with a bum on it is a seat with a bum on it; you'd never see a theatre not sell a ticket because you don't fit the age profile of the ticket they've printed!

We're playing arguably the two smallest clubs in the division in the first two away fixtures. It's an unfortunate quirk of the fixture list, and I daresay KL and Wealdstone are going to have their work cut out. Clubs of this size rely heavily on volunteers and can't just switch up their capacity to deal with this kind of workload at will.

Our fans are going to have to be patient. This is our level now, and we have nobody to blame but ourselves for that.

Allocations per age group are weird though, I agree with that.
 
I think apart from 1 or 2 clubs, Wealdstone, Maidenhead and Woking, etc there will be easily enough tickets for all.

I'm off to Torquay but can't make Wealdstone. I'd be surprised if we take anymore than 300 to Torquay.

Kings Lynn are full time now though. Even their own fans are questioning the way they are selling tickets to away fans in all parts of the ground (quite a few other things they are not happy with by the looks of it as well).

You might need to add Dover, Eastleigh, Boreham Wood and Bromley and even Aldershot to that list if we are doing well.

Eastleigh and Aldershot are Tuesday nighters.

Boreham Wood have 600 seats, Dover can accomodate 2,000 standing
 
I’d like to know what the thinking is behind the bizarre age group ticket allocations for Wealdstone. It’s clear we will shift the adult tickets with ease. Probably by the end of tomorrow.

Equally, if it means I get a ticket I'll pay the 15 quid x 2. Cheaper than the £52 it's cost me for KL.
 
Maroon Blue said:
Yes, because some allocations will be small and only right and fair they go to those that travel up and down the country.

Sure. How many season ticket holders travel up and down the country though. Why is it fair that they start with an advantage to people who pick and choose games or are exiles and travel mainly to away games. The whole scheme is a joke and the sooner it gets cancelled the better.
