Don't underestimate the power of our support - With Bradford-by-the-sea being pretty much full of Bradfordians all they need to do is state their postcode before entering the home end and they'll be allowed access. It beats travelling down to Bradford for the tickets doesn't it?

Im sure they'll hundreds of Bradford fans in your North stand.....I've also noticed quite alot of L**ds fans are travelling to this venue aswell for some strange reason. Could get tasty.


Looking forward to the game.

If Bradford fans want to waste their money by paying to get into the North Stand to then be removed from the ground then let them, more money for the club and they don't get to see the game.

I fully agree but how earth are they going to be removed from the ground if they keep their mouths fully closed? - Even if they do get rowdy and theirs a rather large contingency of them the stewards and police will just have to live with it because they wont chuck them all out onto the streets of Morecambe I can assure you.

If Bradford fans end up in the North Stand and they behave appropriately then thats fine. If not I hope the police and stewards act quickly to remove the numpties so our own fans can enjoy the game. Its a pitty that most of the extra revenue we will get for this game will probably be spent on Lancashire Police's bill. :roll:

Realistically I doubt more than a few dozen will risk it.

If a thousand supporters are going to travel without tickets then why did it take weeks to sell 1,783, doesn't quite stack up does it.

Because their's NO rush perhaps?

Plus....In the time the tickets where on general sale we've sold 1,100 tickets for the Chester game and 10,000 season tickets....Some folk just can't afford to splash the cash in the current financial climate.

I like your advertising poster by the way. :lol:

How will it be possible for 1 , never mind "hundreds?" of Yorkshiremen to keep their mouths shut?
I'll always remember a Bradford fan last year, at theirs, saying "So whats it like to see a real ground?" and thinking, he's got a point, it's great for league 2, but a bit of dump for a former Premiership ground.

We were always going to sell out....never in any doubt, and truth be told if the North Stand had of been allocated to us, WE WOULD of filled it no problem...!

Besides, the 1783 tickets we have sold for an AWAY fixture is more than your average gate..!

Like i say, if there was such a great demand for these tickets and as you say it was always going to sell out then surely your fans would have snapped them up weeks ago.

As for filling the North Stand not a chance.

Excuse my Ars* 247 is actually a decent following for a Tuesday night in Bournemouth...

Add that to the 3,000 that went to Rochdale, 2,200 at Bury, 2,800 at Rotherham...1200 Lincoln.....

Oh and the thousands that will be filling your stadium this Friday..:)Home & Away end..
