Mansfield tickets

[Bushwacka]

Exactly. If you are are one of our wingbacks, for example, having an entire side of the pitch given to Mansfield fans is a completely different experience to if they were just tucked away in Block Z. It's bound to play into their hands.

JJ will love it.

It does seem strange that some Notts fans might not be able to go because we've given them so many tickets. I can only assume it's down to the issue of policing both sets of fans inside and outside the ground if we shared the Sirrel.

You mean a shame that occasional Notts fans can't get tickets. As another poster points out, there are still tickets left.
There will be some waiting for payday I expect but if you're a committed Notts fan you've got your ticket!
I also don't run with the theory of it giving Mansfield an advantage.
It's up to the 75% plus in the ground to drown them out.
I'm also sure the players on both sides will relish the atmosphere.
I'm hoping for a fantastic advert for League Two on and off the pitch.

JJ will love it.

He not be playing.

Feels like we're inching back to the discussion as to whether we should be putting away fans in the Haydn Green stand.

[Bushwacka]

He not be playing.

Oh yeah.

I don't think any of the Notts players will let it bother them anyway but I accept it may give a boost to the oppo.

The seats for the most part that they are not using will be those sheeted off plus 1 block near the kop.
Without looking into the exact size of the pitch but assuming that it is about 100m x 50m.
Mansfield will have support along 100 metres of touchline and us just 200 metres.
Seems we are being very generous and maybe to our disadvantage.

104m x 69m, so 104 for them and 246 for us, approximately (not allowing for stand length vs. pitch length differences). Maybe we would indeed be better off giving them less - or putting them in the Kop and taking back the Sirrel for the day!

Giving them the kop !! Have you lost your fking mind 😆

That would give them over 5000!

Exactly, you would have to be insane to give them the kop

[Davy500]

Exactly, you would have to be insane to give them the kop

Well why would it be insane, in the old days when we played in the top 2 divisions the away supporters were always behind that goal
But i would say if Notts rise up the divisions, and the home support increases where there is demand for more Notts tickets, limit oppoasition to 10%, different rules may apply for a play off match
