    Is it all ticket? What's the away following allocation? Can see a huge following here, can't wait personally.

    I reckon with some good signings we could take 4K there. I haven't been there since the day they got promoted to the PL so looking forward to going.

    Taken from FGG

    Away fans are housed in the modern North Stand, where the facilities and view of the playing action are generally good. The concourse is of a fair size and has access to an open air area if fans need to smoke. The normal allocation for away supporters is 2,000 tickets and fans are normally housed on one side of this stand on the East side. If demand requires it, then the whole of this stand can be allocated, increasing the number of tickets available to 4,700. The acoustics of the stand are not bad meaning that visiting fans can really make some noise.

    I found this club to be particularly friendly from the car park attendant to the programme seller. Even the P.A. announcer had a sense of humour (although a little optimistic), when he announced that perhaps the visiting fans would like to come up again to see the next Barnsley home game, so that we could see a decent game of football!

    However, I have reports of fans getting hassle in the town centre. Although I’ve never personally had any problems at Oakwell, it may be advisable to keep colours covered especially around the town centre.

    I read that and the wording is confusing. Seems to suggest up to 4,700.

    I went to Barnsley’s own web site which states, ‘The North Stand is the most recent addition to Oakwell Stadium and is a large, covered, singled-tiered seating area, and is where away supporters are situated. Capacity is around 6,000’. https://www.barnsleyfc.co.uk/club/oakwell-stadium/

    Went the season we lost 3-1 and Jason Kennedy scored that day, seem to remember Sam Winnall tearing us apart that day for them.

    It’s reduced to 4700 for health and safety reason apparently

    You're seriously worried 4700 won't be enough?

    For some reason we have never really travelled in numbers to oakwell compared to say your Rochdales and other Lancashire sides. only 45 mins from Bradford so should be 3/4k but 2500 is my prediction.
