    Didn't apply because I'd have no chance of getting them.

    I hope they don't continue this ballot thing into next season.

    Has to be the fairest way for these rare occasion where demand is way more than supply.

    When the club tried out away season tickets a few years back, I think only 12 people got one.

    The biggest shame is that Brentford didn't get their wish to give us much more. Once it was only 1800 tickets the ballot has to be the fairest way unfortunately.
    I'm sure for some games the ballot will still be in next year too but if this is the way Saints are going to operate for high demand games in the future then i'll go to more away games :). I'm not ranked high enough to get Brighton tickets, but obviously ok for Bournemouth and Brentford.

    At least next season, if we go up, we'll get much bigger allocations at a lot of grounds like Coventry, Notts Forrest.

    Not forgetting Pompey if we go up :)

    You're right though, the majority of Championship clubs do have bigger away ends so should be better for us

    Brentford will be my 8th. Not many which was why I was probably a little over excited and announced it on here.

    You?

    Sorry, forgot to add welcome to Not 606 :)

    I've been to eleven and have tickets for Plymouth also, so I should be in for a good chance of getting to Brentford.

    I'm in Block 37 too. Row BB

    Blimey! That is close, but that's probably as much info as we need. I don't want you throwing your tea over me during a game if you don't agree with something I've posted on here.

    Thanks for the welcome.

    It would more likely work the other way but i'd have the height advantage being that higher up the stand :)
