Guest M_OAFC Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 There have been a quite a lot of Stockport fans on one of their message boards saying they can't understand why they haven't given us the whole of the Popular Side. At first I thought the problem was down to them not having informed season ticket holders before they bought their tickets that they might get moved the odd time. But according to the Stockport fans they have relocated season ticket holders for this reason in previous seasons so a lot of them can't understand why they haven't done it again. A lot of them are saying the other 2 stands won't sell out to home fans and the Popular Side is normally virtually empty anyway so they are annoyed at their club turning away money they can't afford to lose and a lot said they would rather have a big away following and a cracking atmosphere. A number of them also said it's silly to risk friction due to having away fans in home sections when there is room to give us more tickets and a few of them also raised the issue of what will happen when they play Leicester and more particularly Leeds when the potential number of away fans wanting to go in the home end if they only get 2000 tickets could be even greater. But as we all know, nothing is going to change now sadly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They already played Leicester at home in August, drawing 0-0 in front of 7,151. Only 2,000 seats given over to visiting fans. No crowd trouble, apparently.

No crowd trouble, apparently. True, but we'll take more than Leicester did given our SuperDuper away support and the fact that it's a local one and one that we always made a big day out of but have missed for a couple of seasons.

kellys_discopants Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 If they were expected to sell out the home ends thenfair enough, i could understand ... but if theres a virtually empty stand, where some away fans are housed anyway its just common sense surely. Itd save themselves alot of hassle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kellys_discopants Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 and make them a few more bob too Yep ... im sure there not in the position to be turning down free money. Im surprised the police didnt take the decision out of Stockport`s hands, its better to have more Oldham fans but know where they all are rather than everyone all over the ground.
