    With the huge increase in ST sales and Premier Club also sold out does anyone have any idea how the first round,maybe 6 or 7 away game tickets will be allocated and whether Trust membership may play a part?
    Any info would be greatly appreciated as in a fortnight I'm going to have to choose which away games I can target

    Probably season ticket holders will have preference on away tickets, I´d imagine seeing as how pretty much all the grounds are 20k plus and they have to have 10% for away fans minimum, then the minimum allocation we´ll have is 2000 tickets...so I don´t think it should be a problem really. Most grounds we´ll get more than the 2k mentioned, and as well as that a lot of the away tickets are going to be stupidly priced this year, so I´d imagine the amount of people following them home AND away will actually decrease, whereas the amount of people following them away will almost certainly increase in general.

    how many tickets to swansea give to away fans??? by the way, at stamford bridge we only allocate 1700 tickets and if the club demand, sometimes 3000 (for the local derbies and the big games).

    Cheers Chelseaboi, im loving in london at the moment, and i guess i consider Chelsea as my second team. What are the possibilties of me getting a ticket at the game? maybe in the home stand if the away sell out?

    Next season i think the away allocation will be 2000 only with a slight possibility of more as only 2000 will be available for general sale

    well i'd advise first of all to try and get a ticket through swansea but you're away fans might snatch them up straight away! if not then you could try and get one from the chelsea ticket office depending if the game goes on genereal sale... lets hope you're second team do us proud and get the title back from man united! Well done lads on promotion by the way!

    OK.. a decent amount then and we will most likely sell it out in about 30mins! for preston away in the fa cup a couple of seasons ago, we got allocated 6000 tickets to deepdale... sold out in 4 hours! Look forward to visiting Swansea and the Liberty Stadium next season.. been to cardiff to the millenium stadium for league cup finals etc. and it was OK.. so look forward to visiting you lot next season!

    im pretty sure the chelsea away tickets can range from £30 to £50... unfortunately it extremely pricey but all away fans ive talked to have said its one of the best away days... its a nice area and many pubs around the ground!

    I think renewing trust membership is crucial this year. I've always thought it was a great idea anyway, but now it will be important for those who want priority tickets.

    Will be making the most of selected away days (work shifts and w/ends) so Chelsea was top of the list and £30-50 sounds great .
    From what I can gather aways at the Liberty are going to be flat rate of £35 for all visitors

    Isn´t it something like 60 or 70 quid for Arsenal and Man Utd though? There´s a few teams that seem to have no problem jacking the price up for away fans from what I seem to remember reading... I could be wrong though..
