Has the reason for only offering 2000 away tickets been specified by the club? I agree that having 5000 Grimsby fans would almost certainly end in all sorts of nastiness and violence, but it also seems a shame that we won't pack out the stadium like we did against Coventry, for example - and their fans weren't exactly angels.

I think when they fill the sirrel it's too much of an advantage to them as it's the whole length of the pitch and sometimes they can be louder than our fans which turns it into more of a home game for them.

Thing is. There’ll be loads of Grimsby fans in the home stands. I’m actually not sure it matters how many tickets we give them.

This is surely a police forced thing, can’t imagine the club thinks it’s good business not to sell more.

And how well did giving Coventry 5000 tickets go?

Apparently the ticket money for all the play off games is pooled and shared between the six clubs, so it wouldn't be a good idea to sell more tickets to Grimsby fans, over the limit of 2,000. Like others have said, if the Sirrel is full of away fans, they will always generate more noise/support than us, therefore almost giving them home advantage.
There was a good post on Twitter this morning, explaining how ticket allocation numbers are decided regarding safety/policing/rewarding.

Not well. It was way too much of an advantage having that whole side of the ground.

I believe Notts need to re-think what they do with larger away followings so they don't end up with the full length of one side of the pitch.

Especially the one with the whistle and the two with the flags.

Interesting thread on why Grimsby have been offered so few tickets.

From the National League rules.
