Appears lots of season ticket holders not taken up the option of their ticket.
All very strange.

I'd presume quite a few decided their usual seat would be safe and were waiting to get tickets behind the goal.

Surprised the club haven't pushed the last few. Pinned tweet still says sold out. Just spoke to a customer (casual fan) and asked if he was going to the game, said he was planning to, but missed out. He had no idea tickets were on sale again. He is now going so deduct a dot.

Blues fans not happy on Small Heath Alliance. Many pointing the finger at CCFC for the lack of tickets.

Cheeky buggers. If they didn’t have 9.5k we could’ve had more. It’s only cos we went 50:50 that there’s an issue.

No way nearly 500 season ticket holders either moved seat or didn`t take option of a ticket.
As i said earlier. Very strange.

I think virtually all season ticket holder took their tickets. The tickets that remained were the seats that were not taken as extra seats by season ticket holders - each ST holder had the option to buy 4 seats each. I have 2 Season Tickets and only bought those 2 seats for this game and didnt take the option to buy the additional 2 I was offered.

for many people the buy for a friend option was not working properly. So many people me included (and many on FB) just bought any random seats
Also if you are taking anybody with you, then the existing ST seats, may not be enough together

Blues seem to think CCFC took the decision to limit tickets for them but the reality is they have got more than the official allocation - Talksport ahve been banging on about this Bellingham fella being the new star - maybe the Mancs can snaffle him him up before the weekend as they are fucked for strikers apparently - they should buy Wilson please

Fantastic talent is Bellingham. Garry Monk got the sack for trying to get him to sign up to his mates agency. Clubs have been after him for ages long before he was in their first team offering x, y and z but him and his dad have their screwed on. His dad is non league legend Mark Bellingham who played at Leamington

It'll be a handful at most who have sourced tickets through cov mates. Not worth worrying about.

Or they've registered with our ticketing system to watch a game when blues had an international break or something earlier in the season. Again probably only a handful though.

Think this is likely to be it. I know a few who have been to our 'home' games just to see what it's like. They could get tickets in our end.

17 left btw

The number who gave done that would be quite small, most of those will have just paid on the gate and most of those will have got tickets in the Blues end. We're talking a tiny number I'd imagine. Blues tickets only sold out today anyway, by which time there were only a handful of our seats left.

Nobody is having a go at CCFC but surely both clubs should have arranged for more tickets. None of the explanations for such a reduced capacity so far I've heard make any sense apart from the thing about Coventry parking their coaches in the away car park making those turnstiles harder to access for Blues fans if they open up more seats in the Gil Merrick. However, even with that explanation Blues have in the past had big home crowds with Blues fans sitting in every block of the Gil Merrick Stand and the away side only occupying 500 seats in the far corner of the stand so if it was possible to fill up the Gil Merrick Stand with Blues fans then, why is it not permissable now? The fact is Cov should be given more seats in the Tilton as well, at the very least 3 or 4 more blocks and be able to access via the Tilton Road turnstiles. It is unfathomable that both clubs cannot make this work.
