Another decent one!

Cannot argue with that draw only gripe is we are looking at 2k tkts.

Some sort of divine punishment. As if one trip to South Wales wasn't enough!

Guideline is 15%, but this is subject to safety advice. Theoretically, we should get around 3000-3100, but Wolves only got an allocation of 2000 for their replay there last season.

The away end is behind the goal so doubt we will get anything more so it will be what we used to get in the league . Cannot see the home fans and segregation giving us any more. Who knows though Monday or Friday evening may make a difference
.

I'm sure when I went that behind the goal was split between home and away fans. It's possible we could get the full end to maybe have around 2500-3000 there

It's looking like that could be the case. Swansea fans are encouraging one another to boycott the FA Cup matches, and only 11,261 turned up for the Brentford game. It may well be that their owners want to maximize gate revenues, and so give us a bigger allocation.
