I bought my ticket just after 14:30. The bloke told me that they'd sold 200 in just the 30 minutes since the priority changed to 3 aways and there were then 349 left

Surely they know how many they should sell on each day with the criteria that they have set

You picked up a voucher for the cup match then, crossed my mind to do the same but I couldnt have got there by the time I finished work. Dont suppose you managed a handfull?
Yes, I did get a voucher but I had to ask for it. the Turnstile bloke was a bit reluctant to hand them out. He said, only half jokingly, that he was hoping to keep some for himself.
Dosent look as though I'll be in the Villa end, cant see tickets lasting till i can get them on wednesday. 12000 capacity, 7700 at the Swindon match, take our 1400 and 1000? Swindon fans out of the equation leaves about 3500 vouchers that Rovers didnt get rid of. Im guessing that most season ticket holders would have been at the match. Roughly 2-3000 tickets should go on general sale on Dec 28th..Fingers crossed!! At least we will have a roof. :)

Bristol Rovers have just released 150 more. Managed to get one on the phone few minutes ago.

The dividing area between home and away fans on the Uplands Terrace is quite large. I suspect that they're planning to reduce the size of the unoccupied area

So, Rovers are now manager-less after "parting company" with Paul Buckle.  Good or bad news?

As I just posted on twitter - how does that always seem to happen against us?!
New manager syndrome + underdog + TV + 'magic' of the cup = ominous signs!
