It isn’t just us, it’s 2,000 for every visiting team regardless of how many Forest get for their away allocations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B4ev6is Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 It really ticks me off that we give them more do we ever give them less no we dont. If I had my way I give them 1500 at the most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I had my way I give them 1500 at the most. Because of the layout in the away corner, even if we limited Forest to 1500 tickets we couldn’t sell the rest to our fans, they would stay empty. Do you want the club to lose out on money, £30+ a ticket for over a thousand seats? Lot of money for tit for tat. Forest’s away end only holds 2,000, that’s the max not just for Derby but every club, they are not cutting our allocation because we’re rivals.

B4ev6is Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 We I dont buy that They only started doing this about 3 years ago every season gave us whole end.

We go through this every year, it’s true, they moved the away end and every club gets the same allocation now. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-nottinghamshire-22598887 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don’t sell out either, but I also think they’re mean. There’s only a few teams who will need more than 2000 tickets though to be fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abu Derby Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 When there are several Fatty Burns in the audience, as is always the case there, then the capacity is substantially reduced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cannable Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 I’m surprised at how long they took to sell out yesterday. I logged on straight away at 10 and there were 100 left, my basket was broken until 5 past and just 50 were left, 20 left by the time I’d completed the transaction. Took a day to shift them.

Bear in mind they hadn't even gone on season ticket sales yet. Only to away members and ST holders who'd been to a certain amount of games. Monday night on telly. Not a bad effort at all. Could easily sell another 1500/2000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boycie Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 I’d have bought tickets, I’m sure they’d be another 3 k there as per the old days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has been all season Oi oi, the only reason the City Ground is full now is that season tickets can be bought with 2 weeks dole money and still enough left over for a few bottles of White Lightning. Half the ground turns up is to nick the tab ends outside the away end afterwards to collect enough baccy for the week. Also feels kinda like home on council property.

sawley_ram Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Well if it were too big for us, it would certainly be too big for Forest seeing as the last time they had more in their ground than Derby in a season was in 2004. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boycie Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 We’ve never filled our ground since we all stopped getting free mobile phones with every season ticket. I think that’s what it was? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
