not sure about 5k for weds and forest, leeds have the highest away following by far and had 2.5k at wednesday and 1.9k at forest.

we could theoretically take 5k but what we get allocated is another question

You may get more @ Blackburn and MK Dons but on average away allocations will be about 2.500

You get as much as you want at Wednesday behind the goal.

prices are no picnic either and we will pay top dollar
Tickets at some Championship clubs have been described as “ridiculously expensive” after a Guardian survey found adult prices this season will regularly surpass £35, with Sheffield Wednesday charging £52 for certain games.

According to the study, Wednesday’s category A* matches in the south stand at Hillsborough are the most expensive seats available, excluding premium hospitality sections across the league. Eighteen of the 24 clubs in the division have priced their dearest tickets at £35 or more. Five of those clubs – Brighton, Fulham, Ipswich, Leeds and Wednesday – sell their most expensive tickets at £40 or more.

Can't wait to see how much "fun" it is on a January Tuesday night at Huddersfield.

Hopefully more fun than losing 2-0 to the likes of Norwich on a Monday afternoon

I suppose it might be nice to catch up with that nice Mr. Lambert at Blackburn. Just to tell him how much we appreciated his tenure as Manager.

Don't get me started now. My first ever away game was at Fellows Park and they murdered us 3-0. IIRC there were about 46k there for one of the derbies against them - I think the 0-0.

1972 season.

Same allocation as pre season game, behind the goal and all of the touchline stand so around 3k.

It will most certainly be more fun for that section of our fans which enjoys a bit of a punch up.

I reckon where we played away in1970-71 we must have had 75% of the 20,000 crowd.

I remember the 0-0 well. It was the quietest I've ever known Villa Park.
