Shef weds are charging home fans £20 for the game Friday. Shame we didn't see it as an opportunity to sell the amex for the same for our fans, just a little thing that bugged me as I ploughed another £30 into the online ticket system this morning.

Mine was £25 and that includes travel...I am not complaining

I may be totally wrong but 1) Brighton v Crystal Palace wasn't a sell out 2) Far fewer children will attend. 3) People put off by the Friday night travel. Attendance Prediction Amex 29,000 Hillsborough 32,000

Not the real one
I'd say Massive still expected to get more at the Amex, as little Brighton couldn't possibly get 28000 of their own fans at a game. I think we should have given massive the same percentage they gave us. So around 1600. 2000 is too many!

1) Wrong
2) Tickets will be upgraded
3) The match is Monday, not Friday, but will sell out nevertheless.

The allocation will result in empty seats at both grounds. As I don't believe the Amex or Hillsborough will sell out for a evening match against a non premier league team.

Bonkers!

Disagree, there's many that couldn't get a ticket for boro who will want to make up for it. Estimate we will sell out within an hour tomorrow.

I respectfully disagree. I reckon maybe 1100 ish will sell tomorrow and we might just about sell the remaining 900 before the game. It's probably the least attractive play-off fixture you could imagine:
* ancient ground where we never win
* played there loads of times in recent seasons owing to being in the same division as them for several recent years
* terrible time - Friday night - which rules out a return home on the same day unless you drive
* the recent expense of Middlesbrough
* an understandable feeling of despondency.

Under different circumstances and a different date/time, we could have easily taken 5,000.

Just bagged my ticket too. Having missed out on the Boro ticket I wasn't going to miss this one.
