Yep, skulked around on their forum. Parrett is out for the "foreseeable future" and their fans don't think they have decent backup. An interesting thread regarding AN on there too. Sounds like the general opinion is that he was "lights out" for the first 2 years, then their owners wussed out and it went downhill after that.
They are concerned that we're better rested and think we'll find the net. I hope they're right.

Went to fetch my tickets at around 16:45 & was told that we’re on coach 23… I don’t use these coaches much so is that a lot compared to usual? When was the last time we took 23 coaches away? As for st Gregory’s, We went there a few years back. It’s £1 to get in but if you’re not there before 1pm then I wouldn’t bother… we queued for about an hour & still didn’t get served before giving up & walking to the ground. Butland let 2 easy saves in & we lost 3-1 if I remember correctly.

How much are the tickets - thinking about going. It’ll be my first away game for quite a few years

So I assume 23 coaches is quite high. Anyone know how match ticket sales are going ? Got mine and I’m really looking forward to the day 👍🍺

Am I right in thinking the end holds 6000, there wont be any PNE fans in it but not releasing all 6000 tickets for sale? PNE must be going nuts, police costing them money there

Hence why they start with a small-ish number, then ask for extra if warranted? Or is that a thing of the past?

It seems to be why Stoke always seem to start low and then ask for more.......

Think that’s only a premiership thing where tickets are at a premium and the home side could sell the tickets to their supporters Whereas nobody will have them in the championship if the away side don’t sell them

I think the dribs and drabs is because it makes sense for people to be in a fairly compact group. Easier to police and steward than if the whole end is opened up.

The reason we have them in smaller quantities is that what we don't sell and give back, we have to pay for. If we asked for 5k and sold only 3k, we'd take a financial hit.

I can only see coach travel on the stoke website (accessing on a phone) and cannot find match tickets anywhere... Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Someone above said this is not the case any more (at our lowly level) so was guessing.

I appreciate it's only a couple of games(Burnley and Sheffield Utd) but it seems there is a new wave of optimism around our club.We were always going to take a decent following to Preston,irrespective of results but I believe,especially after last Saturday that a lot of us are warming to the idea that Alex Neil just maybe the one who gets us to where we want to be. Early days yet but I am happier at the moment about our clubs fortunes than I have been for a few years. In A.N. we trust.

They’ve just suffered a late blow and now have a long trip back to Preston and only have a couple of days until they play us

Anybody wanting a ticket could always go on to the Preston website and get one in the home end - might not be the same as being with your own supporters but at least you get to watch the game.

A point followed by two home wins and we’re in good shape.
