I've got 2 STs but I need 3, so if anyone isn't going I'd be grateful...

I won't be going so you could use mine but I have less than 300 points & don't think they'll be any left on 1st allocation. You're welcome to try though

Can't understand why we've been given such a relatively small number on the initial allocation .

Because we've only sold about 1000 for our last 2 away games.

Strange number . After a bit of research apparently there is a total of 3600 accommodated in the top and bottom tiers

They both had initial allocations of around 2400 (which is the upper tier) and then requested the extras in the lower tier.
This was Leicesters allocation.

Both over Christmas, miles away and grounds that aren't appealing due to various factors.

These will go quick, I think initial allocation wont make it past the first day (like Leeds).

Amazing that a stand in which nearly 100 people died continues to be used, but we have whole swathes of our stadium closed because some chavs throw a few empty coke bottles.

Never shagged a bird from Sheffield so am anticipating the trip. Taking my Dad so am going to have to be stealthy. Anyone with local knowledge of the birds of Sheffield and which are easiest to catch, oops I mean talk to.

Last time I was in Sheffield I saw a pigeon with no feet.

Hope this helps.

Very likely that we get extra allocation for this . Will tickets get to general sale ?

Concerned that this might not get to general sale. Fortunately I've managed to get a ticket for quite a few away games this season but living in Sheffield this one I really want to go to. If anyone could get me a ticket I would much appreciate it.

Well if they did it would have a smaller capacity than current.

Exactly - Why knock a structure down based on 'feelings' and then build a bigger replacement when tor the past 30 years you couldn't fill the original one???
