Really impressed they've managed to turn this around with SAG and police so quickly.

And MK are tinpot.

Not a grumble as I am a season ticket holder but why do we have to wait until tomorrow to purchase ? Any reason as to why they can't be released immediately. SAG ? Regulations ? Just curious.

Can’t they just give each remaining side say 700 and give us the blocks for the rest of the season?

It’s highlighted we need the extra space and home fans should take priority.

Very good point, can't see any side still to visit the Mill bringing anywhere near that except Swindon, maybe, and Gillingham if they need something.

According to EFL rules we have to make 10% of the ground capacity available to away fans, so 860(ish?). No reason - except for SAG - we have to give away fans the full North Stand, even for big games.

Aren't both Wrexham (1,150 odd out of 12,600) and Stockport (906 out of over 10,000) allocating fractionally less than 10%?

Can understand Wrexham as they’ve just built that Gillingham mark 2 stand but not sure how Stockport have gotten away with it for most of the season. Didn’t even fill the stand behind the goal against us

I didn’t think North stand would be open to home fans. When we purchased our tickets all that was available was the family area in West lower. Bit gutted tbh.

I think they only took 800 odd to their biggest game at AFC
I would expect 200 max from this lot on a Tuesday night so right decision made to give us the blocks again. Looked and sounded great against Salford

It’s good that we are utilising the stadium fully to give more fans an opportunity to watch when the typical home seats have sold out. Going forwards I think a temporary stand will appear on the Bishop Street side during the summer. A promotion will bring in more fans and we are at or very near full capacity for every game as it is. Correct me if I’m wrong but I don’t believe we have planning permission to develop the Bish so a temporary stand I’ve our only option. It’ll be cheap(er), give an instant increase in capacity and give the club time to assess the impact of promotion on attendance. Massive development is needed in regards to the stadium and I can’t see too much being spent for a short-term fix.
