    Looks like the home fans have the lower tier meaning the allocation is only going to be 2000.

    That’s shocking. Surely we would take double that. Only hour n half away.

    I’d be very disappointed if we gave them more than 2k for the home fixture.

    Clubs only have to give 2,000 or 10% of capacity, whichever is the lower, to the away team.

    Bolton have confirmed on their official site that they will be selling the bottom tier of the stand in which away fans are housed to home fans regardless of whether they play us or Wednesday.

    In such circumstances, we should give them not one ticket more than they give us.

    What's a few £k versus a better chance of getting to the final, the associated pay day and ultimately the c. £8m it will cost to still be in L1 next season? If we give them the whole North Stand and let them make it feel like a home game for them we deserve everything we get imho.

    Correct. It’s our game to make oakwell a fortress. Give them exactly what they give us… stick the black sheet just underneath the gangways so they are all stuck at back of the north stand rather than next to the tunnel. Let’s do our bit and fill our home stands and create an absolute electric atmosphere and not have to worry about 5000 away fans giving their team a boost. Let’s be the fans to drown out their support and get behind our lads for the final push back to the Championship.

    Absolutely this. Money's irrelevant. Give some tickets away if we have to, but fill the bloody place with tarn fans. Don't want 5k Trotters roaring their side out.

    Are you following this thread, Whitey?? Have a word...

    I hope everyone who is upset about the potential ticket allocation for Bolton at Oakwell will be in attendance to give the reds full support .

    I'm glad most people in this thread don't run the club. Talk about fickle.

    We all know the dirty game Bolton will bring to the pitch. We need to play the same game off the pitch atleast. No more than 2k.

    That sounds promising then. It would be crazy to let them bring 5k for the sake of an extra £50k or so.

    The second sentence contributes to the need for the first
