Another 1,400 released on top of 1,101 released earlier, giving us a total allocation of 4,544.

The whole capacity of the stand, according to Wikipedia, is 6,658. Not sure if we can get more or if it is reduced as per the post I read on a Wednesday forum.

4500 at £42 a go for a Sunday game live on TV is hardly an allocation to worry about being too small.

They've updated Twitter and stated it's 2500 more, so we'll have 4500.

No, I was worrying before the extra ticket allocation was announced but expect that will be enough. Was just curious as to whether we would be able to take even more tickets, hypothetically.

The stand does hold 6k but they've reduced it due to safety, mainly because Leeds kick off.

4500 is still decent, we will make a noise.

Please forgive me Paul McGrath, my heart has ruled my head.  Sheffield bound.

I'll be gutted if I can't get Derby or Bristol City tickets.

Can you still join the away scheme? £25 will guarantee you those tickets. I've joined this season for the first time.

I don't think I could go anyway as I can't do the midweeks, of which there will be many. Also can't go to Preston as in London and there are bound to be loads more when I'm doing stuff.

I just want to pick and choose and think it's only fair home teams give over their entire stadium so as I don't miss out 😉

My first away will be Barnsley on that Tuesday night in September I think.  I'll go in their end if I need to but it's another ground that's got a huge away end.  Looking forward to the Oakwell clapping song.  Anyone remember it?

2,043 is a crap allocation - didn't we get 6,000 in the new all seated Leppings Lane end when BFR became manager.  We would sell 4,000 easy.
I think we had 7700 for BFR's first game as we had the entire end plus adjacent corner..... Let's hope our new manager gets off to the same start and career BFR enjoyed here

We had the corner terrace because the football special from New St broke down en route and when we got to the ground just before halftime they wouldn't let us in our seats.
The jog from Wadsley Bridge station was funny though, I don't think the policeman with his movie camera was expecting that..
