I'm sure you will get a slightly increased allocation unless the police sh!t themselves, we gave Gillingham an extra block, more than we would give a PL team. About 2,000.
A sell out? ..you're having a laugh.

I think it means that our allocation has been sold out , not the ground .

I was getting targeted ads on Facebook over the weekend flogging tickets to the match (for the home end) so it seems unlikely that it will be a sellout, or close to it

I did mean that I was predicting the ground would be sold out, or close to, given that we got 16,200 against Gillingham two years ago and surely more away fan interest.

Turns out it was 13,634 ...not quite as many. But still more than the capacity of Griffin Park for its final 35 years.

That’s a very decent turn out.
Love it if we could emulate Brentford, but finding a new ground site in or around Leyton & being able to finance that are two massive obstacles
Thanks Bazza!
