China Red and I are in!
Great news China and Orange. Secured our 3. Just unreal that our away allocations are being cut significantly. If that is due to a few coked up twats then that is ridiculous and needs resolving. |

Got my 3 tickets. I seem to remember there being a rule that we had to be offered an allocation of something like 15% of the grounds capacity for FA cup? Did I make that up? I suppose any police rules would trump that though…

Clubs can allocate up to 15% of capacity to away fans. Not sure they have to and I assume it's agreed between the 2 clubs hence the delay for our tickets being on sale. I know there have been issues recently with Arsenal only giving teams (Spurs, Liverpool and Man City) about 5,000 tickets in the FA Cup, whereas when they played Lincoln they allocated 9,000. |

The big question is can Garner join the illustrious list of managers who have actually won an FA cup tie in charge of Swindon?
Brown and Flitcroft are the only 2 managers, who both won a single FA cup tie in charge, since PdC in 2011, Brown being the last manager to win a 1st round tie in November 2018!
Full time managers Cooper, Ling, MacDonald, Williams, Wellens and Sheridan all didn't win a single FA cup tie with us.
Cooper, Williams and Wellens are the only ones in that list who will have managed an FA Cup game, no?? |

Martin Ling's first game in charge was a 3-1 defeat at Rochdale in the FA Cup in 2015

I have seen some people already moaning about the allocation without giving any thought to the fact that it may be an initial allocation, or that the club have requested this many. You have to wonder whether there are enough brain cells to go around these days

Football fans have to moan about something. Its an unwritten rule. |

And we seem to have an inordinate amount of moaners anyway as fans. |

What are the rules re allocations, Holker Street only holds 5,400 so even that is 12% of the total capacity. |

EFL rules are that 10% in the minimum allocation givent o away supporters of the total capacity, they can offer more if they are able to but not less. Official figure for this season is 5,045 capacity. |

I was a bit out on the allocation
Town have been allocated a total of 646 tickets in the Away End - including 112 seats and 534 terracing.

Ta, I wonder whether the further drop is due to it now having some extra roof! Still never set foot in the place, been to Asda next door a couple of times! |
