Feel for anyone being underneath them pigs. It will be to help keep fans apart queuing outside the stadium. They'll have the fencing separating North Stand ticket holders Wednesday fans from West Upper for their lot and then Wednesday fans with Lower West tickets will be admitted in the newer turnstiles on the South Stand side of the ground rather than those on Leppings Lane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a restricted amount of tickets in those stands due to SAG stuff, so it just makes sense to block them all off at the end of the stand.

That's why there was such an outcry when Luton banned away fans in the 80's. If I remember rightly they were even kicked out of the FA Cup for not allowing away fans.

If they didnt net them they could sell the same amount of tickets but everyone would have more space to dance around when we score. Which would decrease the number of crowd injurys and improve safety. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quick calculation - 2,100 is 5% of 42,000 Given our 'current' capacity, the West Stand lower tier could accommodate the more accurate figure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

royalowlisback Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 What is the capacity for this game then, now the WSL has been made partly available to Owls fans? Looks like AA in the South was on sale, although these have all gone now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this is great news, let's get as many Wednesday fans in the stadium as possible. I was sat in West lower that day, a few blades sat amongst us but no trouble. Fans behaved them sens back in them days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So probably around 31,800. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
