In games where we’ve had large numbers of away fans in home areas all the City games went off without trouble in the ground as far as I saw, same with Forest when they came at the end of a season when they were getting promoted, Sunderland less so. Forest in 98? I'd have to double check, but I don't remember them selling out the Railway End terrace for that one. |

Just where do you sit if you do go to a game where you support neither club and really are a neutral. Used to do this a lot pre covid but cannot be bothered nowadays with increasing parking restrictions and more difficulties just entering the ground due to ticketing arrangements. Football is still going through a bit of a boom but clubs will have to take care as this may not last forever.

Literally nobody has said anything of the kind. If home fans buy all the tickets in the home end then there's no problem. If there's any home area tickets left, and the away fans have sold out, one or two may go in the home end quietly. If any away fan does go in the home end and doesn't behave, they should expect the consequences. None of those scenarios really 'f*ck the loyal fans'. |

The onus is absolutely on the fan/fans in the wrong end to be respectful and not draw attention to themselves to avoid trouble. Be respectful and recognise you shouldn’t be there. The only exception (in terms of not drawing attention to yourself) would be Coronation Street actors departing the Cheadle End in front of cameras as we stick a third past City. If City get relegated for their financial naughtiness, or we make it all the way up there there should be 2 seats reserved at the front of the Cheadle End for Curly and Les. |

I'd be surprised if that is the case, they'd be breaking every data protection law in the book. Orient can't ring up County and ask 'Does John Smith of 1 High Street have a booking history at County?' - if we gave away that answer we'd be potentially in big trouble. Exactly. Getting in the home end is easy enough. Although for big matches you'll often need a booking history so it's prudent to buy a ticket for a random match well ahead of the time.  |

If it was a home sell out you wouldn't be doing it but most grounds aren't selling out their home allocations. I sat in the home end at Ewood Park for example and nobody was any the wiser. I certainly didn't ruin anyone's match day experience or deprive anyone of a ticket. |

Calm down Puggers, your lot will be celebrating and with a bit of luck we will too, it could turn into a really good day with no hint of trouble. |

If you don't sell out regularly, then nobody is missing out. |

Wanting to buy a ticket on the 8th of Feb for a game on april 29th , as for Ewood comparing a 20000 all seater to a ground that holds under 10K. Seriously ? |
