    There is no logical answer to this. This is utter lunacy, its created a now huge problem that was never there.

    If that's the bollocks the club are spouting out, then just give 'em the Bradford end. You shouldn't care about the extra revenue for another 1000 away fans, it will be swallowed up by the Plod bill anyway.
    Treat your own supporters right first

    Which halfwit has signed this idea off? I'm desperately looking for a positive to this but there isn't one?

    Serious Question, Do EFL rules for play off games insist that away clubs have a greater allocation of tickets to that of the league game?
    If No , then why are we so obliging to Carlisle at the cost to home support.

    Is there any kind of league requirement for a certain percentage of tickets to go to away fans which can't be accomodated in the normal way?

    Maybe there is an agreement that we get behind the goal at there place, rather than just a couple of blocks in the corner?

    getting our fans behind both goals, has got to be a good thing.
    An announcement tonight with tickets on sale from tomorrow morning , would have been the way to go.
    We have 14000 season ticket holders and room for over 20000 home fans 18500 if you take out the Bradford end, no season ticket holder is getting a crappy seat. How many season ticket holders in the Midland rd 2000 max, you can get 1400 of them in the 2 end blocks, so technically only 600 or so to move stands.
    Stop bloody moaning, there are spare seats around me in the kop and the view is fantastic, the NW corner is almost empty most match days , and is meant to have some of the best views.

    After a wonderful effort to get the crowd they did today, they've undone that good work by this decision. Part of the feel good factor of the football is to sit with the group of people you know. I've sat with the same group around us for about 9 years now, it feels weird not being sat around the folk i've celebrated and moaned with for years. Spoils the day in my opinion.

    No. The same rules for accommodating the appropriate number of away fans apply since play-offs are still under the aegis of the EFL. It isn't like the FA Cup where more fans have to be accommodated per FA rules
