Also don’t forget that not every away team will travel in numbers to the Amex games. This could release a lot more home tickets nearer to the time for some of the games.
I’ve got friends of friends of friends who went to all the games at Withdean and Gillingham but who only recently stopped being season ticket holders or members. Why do they not get priority for our 1,000 allocation at Real Betis? 🤪
