Never had any issues at the new den.

Won't have the required points this time sadly but don't be put off going. Unless of course you're going for the wrong reasons, in which case you'll probably wish you hadn't.

I am guessing they will see how well the home end sells before giving us the lower tier. It's not really practical to make the lower tier part BHA/ part Milwall to give us 15% and allow the maximum 'Wall in. Suspect it's all or nothing

I fear it will be down to 'police advice' as to whether or not we get given the lower tier, and nothing to do with whether or not the upper tier sells out.

.........which won't be helped by PB's very public outpouring about the 'stuff from the 70s/80s element creeping back into the game' or whatever he went on about

There should be an equal percentage reduction in home tickets to level up the split. 20000 capacity means we are due 3000 tickets under FA Rules. 800 short is 26% short. So Millwall should get 74% of 17800 which is just over 13000.

Hard to disagree with the logic of this conclusion.

Makes logical sense but practically this would just mean a couple of empty blocks in the home end.......so doesn't really serve any purpose ?

It means there would be the same percentage split of fans in the ground as there would have been if we had got the allotment the rules say we should have. Thus negating an advantage for Millwall gained by their fans poor behaviour. I am not expecting it to happen but I am very unhappy that thuggery = FA Cup Quarter final edge - however small it may seem.

Might possibly incentivise ‘Wall fans to behave better if they knew that their allocations at their home ground were reduced pro rata with that of the oppo fans due to their prior behaviour? At the moment you could argue that they’re actually incentivised to misbehave...

Good to see the Millwall fans coming on here contributing.

Puts those Palace idiots we have to put up with to shame.

Don't begrudge anyone with enough points to get their tickets today. Just perplexed as to why tier 2 is so wide...

Unusual for the Club not to confirm actual ticket allocation.
Have they done this to stop the “wait for the lower tier to open”” behaviour.
If the police had put restrictions on what tier could be sold then surely they would have said so at the start.
I see the 2 corner sections (21/26) nearest the home sections have got the front 10 rows not for sale.
That seems strange if we were already getting a reduced allocation of top tier.
Maybe just the central 3 blocks in the Lower Tier will be available once the top sells out?

Could be- surely the club would ordinarily not break the down to all members if there was not more than 2200?
