I thought the typical away allocation at Brisbane Road was about 1500, with potential for more if required. It is a surprise that the announcement didn't say "initial" allocation, but I guess it must be because there is no priority group sales.
If the rail strike does not go ahead, I could see us taking around 2000 - it's easier to get to than Yeovil in my opinion.

I phoned the club yesterday and they stated that they have about 600 initially and max of 1200 away allocation. The problem if it is pay on the day - more than 1200 may travel a la Woking!!!

Just phoned the club to get a ticket sent as I live out of Bristol - said they have been inundated with enquiries and only season ticket holders until Monday!!!

This happens time after time if they have got 1200 to sell why don't they send all of them to us ! It's a joke surely it's not rocket science to realise if we take over 500 on a Tuesday night we will take over a 1000 to a place easy to get to on a Saturday

Welcome to 2015 where for some reason you can pay £22 to not be able to see part of what you're paying £22 to see....and the best bit is you won't know until you get there and can't see it!

More pillars than the Colosseum at Kenilworth Road on Tues, had a job to see Sinclair's goal, I'll be f**ked if I'm paying 22 quid to sit behind a shaft at Orient. Heads will roll!

Pretty crap all round IMO. It should be obvious to the club that less than 600 tickets will be snapped up. Therefore, usual priority ticketing arrangements should apply. If Orient are making an initial allocation available and then a fixed total second batch, why not make this clear from the start. I'm slightly surprised that the next limit is only 1200 as there is usually space for a lot more in the away stand. www.bristolrovers.co.uk/news/article/leyton-orient-ticket-information-2633000.aspx

Website was updated late - but it only reflected the reality. A few reports of them being on general sale and then the club realising we were actually going to sell a few and thinking it wasn't a bad idea to perhaps limit it to ST holders...
A lot is wrong with the behind the scenes running of the club. Really made a mountain out of a molehill with this one.

From the website: "Tickets will go on sale to Priority Group One (Includes Season Ticket Holders) from tomorrow (Thursday 20th) until close of play Saturday (22nd August). Priority Group Two will be able to purchase tickets from Monday (24th August) until Wednesday (26th August) inclusive with the remaining tickets going on General Sale from Thursday (27th August) subject to availability."

Just got my tickets for Leyton Orient. Voucher C is required for season ticket holders. That bit is missing from the BRFC website page.
A reminder that, as always, it's only one ticket per season ticket voucher. There were people there today expecting to be able to buy multiple tickets with only one voucher.

I don't want to sound rude but how thick are some people? Isn't it blatantly obvious you get ONE ticket for ONE voucher?

"Can't you just sell me the one? I've traveled miles to get here!" seems to be another popular one amongst those that don't have the right priority.

Rail strike 29 Aug - if it goes ahead implication is that 70% of service will operate so hopefully will still be able to go to Orient by train!!!
