Playoff tickets, First Leg

Biggest game of the season and it looks like the hand of SAG has struck meaning a reduced allocation for Blades fans. That can be the only interpretation for the ridiculous decision to house Florist fans in the BLUT and stop sales for the Westfield corner. Looks like 2 blocks will be available to Blades in the BLLT but why the change.

EFL rules state a minimum of 2,000 away fans. If we apply the interpretation strictly as we should do because it would be insane to give Florist over £4k tickets when they will only give us 2k, then there will be at least 2k empty seats in the BLUT and Westfield corner. Why can't they go where away fans have always gone in the BLLT?

SYP plod lost control of Florist after the game this season and they were running all over the Moor. Are we as fans being penalised again for the incompetence of our police force. Is housing them in the BLUT any safer than BLLT or are they intending to kettle them after the game.

Westfield corner season ticket holders are now having to buy other Blades season ticket seats elsewhere in the ground adding to a confused ticketing process which is already limited to print at home or mobile tickets.

Any other club would go out of their way to maximise their advantage by limiting away fans and ensuring as many Blades as possible are in the ground within the confines of EFL rules. Yet it seems we have rolled over easily and had our bellies tickled by SAG.

If someone can come up with another plausible reason for this change then it would be good to hear it especially as our porcine neighbours have had no such interference for their play off game on Monday when 2k Mackems are housed in the normal away end in the top of the Leppings Lane stand.

I am normally in the top corner, just had to buy two seats infront of directors box, sure will have pissed the owners off, but I would prefer to be in the top corner, so got next best seats. 32 quid for two, so not complaining.

That’s Linz’s season ticket places gone before we’ve even noticed then :)

I don't think that is the case, I think both clubs have agreed to a bigger away following for both legs, I'm sure we will get the same amount of tickets as Forest get.
 
Can't believe they are doing this. Blades fans lose BLUT and Westfield Corner, and are compensated by just two blocks in BL lower? Did they give a reason?

Why would they do this when the games would be sellouts anyway?
 
If Forest have the entire Bramall Lane Upper and the Westfield, we are conceding a big advantage to them before kick off. Why do they get special treatment (and better views)?

They've fucked up making it a free for all for season ticket holders though, why not just let us renew? Seems easier and would cause less shit!

Sort of agree but what we're all of us in Westfield corner and BLUT suppose to do? Feel for those who've lost their seats but think this was the only fair way. The problem is for people who normally sit together but don't have linked accounts so can't book them all in one transaction.
 
The plus side to this is that we have 4 sides of ground at pitch side for blades. Dow

As we are unable to offer the Bramall Lane Corner to home supporters, season ticket holder seats are not reserved. 2021/22 season ticket holders will still have priority to purchase before 12noon on Monday 9th May.

Away supporters for this game will be seated in the Bramall Lane Upper Tier and the Bramall Lane Corner, all other areas will be available for Home Supporters.

Plus side for this is blades in 4 sides of pitch.
Downside is Forest have the bit of the ground with best acoustics for their 2 mins of singing before blades shut them up by going 2 up.
 
Though most on the BLUT seem to be headed for the South, so my seat on the cop behind the goal was easily bagged.

UTB.

Tickets £20? That's excellent from the club.

Forest are charging from £29 to their fans for their hone leg. I would like to think they have agreed away alloctions at similar levels and thry charge us £20
 
Made the mistake of buying ours in the BL lower as our STs are usually in the corner. Anyone know if it's worth me staying in the queue to see if I can get them changed?
