That’s how it works.

I agree, I don't think the standard priority system is suitable when the allocation is likely to be so low.


Yep, I was hoping to go wherever we played and had booked the day off work specially for it, but probably won't manage to get a ticket now. There's plenty of others who will have been to more away games than me this season, so they obviously deserve priority. If I can go then great, if not, I'll be kicking every ball from my sofa.

Season ticket holder for 17 years yet I’m 3rd choice :lol:

I’ll be hacked off it I find out that anyone else (player’s friends and family, club staff etc.) get a ticket. With such a likely low allocation then Crawley is only for those that have put the miles in. I’m actually concerned that four games isn’t quite stringent enough. Needs to be a dozen IMHO.

Sorry, I agree with you. I thought that category was for the home leg!

That makes sense for the away, it should be those that travel frequently who get the tickets.

Yes, but no-one’s prepared to put the effort in at the club to change the criteria.

As I say though, if the allocation away is as small as reported, then we need to put concerted pressure on the club to release ALL of the allocation to actual fans. If I find I’m stood next to players partners, family and mates along with club staff down at Crawley then that’s scandalous.

Unfortunately, I think that'll be about as effective as farting against thunder.

I’ll be tagging every player and member of the coaching staff on social reminding them to do the right thing. ;)

Of course we will all get tickets, but now it’s a huge fuck around to get everyone in the group to sit next to each other.

And after paying a fucking whopping premium price for Club Red Season Tickets I can’t sit in my favourite seat.

It will also make fuck all difference to the atmosphere. Fucking gimp.

If I can’t sit in my seat with the people I have spent years sitting with then I won’t bother going. What a fucking joke this club has become.

Done for the tv cameras I suspect.
They will probably open the corners when all the other seats in view are filled.

Its disappointing as with all the work Dons Action had done, I was quite excited to see how much we could fill the ground. It’s now going to be very hard to quantify that. Closing club red will make absolutely no difference to the atmosphere. It’ll just make the ground look more empty.

Almost as if we’re treating it like a PJT game.

As for the away game, we should have an allocation of 613
