This.

I’m just generally exhausted from all the recent aways & beer consumption.

I need a little rest after Carlisle.

Save yourself for my 40th @ the league game :)

Too much at times

it takes me longer to recover these days 

12 hour stints and 9AM starts on the beer for long distance aways really fuck me over. 

One every 4/6 weeks is enough for me these days.

Looks as though there’s only one ticket left online so act fast 😂 

Be interesting to see if they give us any more, especially with the league game on the horizon 

I reckon this game may have some bearing on how the league game is handled.

They gave Preston a reduced allocation last season....

We’ve been well behaved this season. Surely we can have a bigger allocation. 

Reading some comments online it appears Blackpool are firmly fixed on the 2k, apparently it got discussed when Carlisle recently went and police had the  final say

mad scramble

Can’t see it for either game at Blackpool as it would mean giving us the full touchline and changes the whole operation in terms of segregating near turnstiles etc. Carlisle and Preston probably the best examples.

Even less likely for the cup game as the home sales won’t be anywhere near as high as they would need to be to cover the extra police bill.

According to one of their forums, we have only been given 2,000 and are saying it will be the same allocation for the league game.

Also believe any temp catering / toilet facilities they had behind the back of that temporary stand at the other end (which is now always empty but used to house the away fans) have been removed. 
 

easy job to fix I suppose but extra work they would have to do to accommodate additional away fans. Don’t see them doing that

I grew up watching the team in loads of aways and it never crossed my mind there would be a time when going to the game would be restricted so much.   Its a bit sad that the total crowd will be about 6k and yet we as Bolton fans can't go.  The whole period from 1980 to leaving Burnden would have had a completely different feel to it if we couldn't just go to 95% of away games we wanted to, by deciding a day or 2 before, sometimes on the morning of the game.  We took some fantastic followings to Blackpool, and never bought tickets, we just turned up and packed out the away end.

Wrexham have sold out 7k for Blackburn and we give anyone that wants it 5k, it seems wrong that Blackpool aren't capable of hosting fans that want to attend a game of football for god's sake, with half the ground empty!  (and I wouldn't have been going to this fixture so I'm not talking about me missing out, just the general principle)

We haven’t played anyone fairly local yet. We’ll see if “we’ve behaved ourselves” still stands after Blackpool and Wigan. My money is on not!
