Was hoping, what with it being an FA Cup game with a bigger allocation, that it would go to Purchase History so I could go with the Mrs.

We've taken 4000 to Stoke I see no reason why we would not take up the full allocation for this one
With the fact that most fans will have to go by road due to the train issues, those roads are quite slow from memory, having to buy tickets just before Christmas and the prospect of a cold wet day at a shit ground if it is cold and wet, I will be very surprised if we sell anywhere near 4,000

We definitely won't sell 4000 as we aren't going to take up the allocation.
But it will sell out on the first day of selling to Albion+ members

That's the spirit! All recent experience shows high demand for away match tickets when not too far away and/or attractively priced. 3K often sell out to STHs only and then there are all the non-STHs who'd like to join friends on one away day.

2700 makes sense, thats what's roughly in the block you can see on the website (Blocks F, G, H, J). But that's basically gone now, so maybe we'll get another section.
The ticket site usually displays all of the potential blocks, with sections blacked out until tehy are released.


I don't expect this one to change.

Yeah just checked the norwich website, and the next bit of block J seems to have been on sale to home fans. So we wont be getting any more.

I think I have done Norwich four times now, two by train and two by coach and "not too far away" has never been one of my memories, especially getting home after the game

With 10 points on offer and paper tickets I wonder how many in the first two ticket batches will actually turn up, which means the lower points fans will miss out

Whats our allocation on this? And have we had it all now?

should be 4000, but rumoured to be 2700 taken

Unfortunately Bob we have not taken a bigger allocation just the 2669 regular away amount for carrow road. There may be a few odd seats pop up closer to the day but if it sells out today to Albion + members as expected then those will not be available to purchase history. Most peculiar the way the club have gone about the release of seats with this one and with that in mind maybe we have not yet seen all of the ones in blocks we do have. In particular the back 5 rows of F i personally have not seen on sale yet but maybe they are the players comps etc.

I sincerely believe that those days are behind us now, at least in the quantities of that dark day at Bournemouth. But there will always be a few entitled selfish arseholes.

Be interesting to see how many fans turn up with multiple tickets to fed into the machines at the turnstiles, hopefully its a very small number and hopefully they will get spotted
