Clayhole Blue Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 In short, which clubs will be letting away fans in and which won’t? Given the numbers who watch the game at League 2 level it will be disappointing if clubs don’t make an effort to set aside an area for a small group of visitors.Edited to add - who have let away fans in so far? (We haven’t) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edinburgh City let away fans in against Hamilton. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thom & Gerry Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 We are limited to 500 with all ticket holders allocated a zone within the ground and only allowed to enter the ground in a specified time period. We average more than 500 per game so don’t see away fans knowingly allowed in for the foreseeable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamthebam Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 Albion Rovers have been letting away fans in. I'm hoping to go to Cliftonhill next week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, Level 0 capacity is 404 so we should be able to host most League 2 away supports. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kind of understand it when crowds are over 10,000 or whatever but at our level it doesn't make a lick of sense and will just put people off going. Our club thankfully has had a sensible approach with no specified time. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KH4 Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 Kelty - Home game against Dundee United was home supporters only however a sizable number of away fans not wearing colours were in attendance and supported the team without any issues. At the game against East Fife, away fans were allowed and had a designated section. With the upcoming game against Cowdenbeath, Away fans again are allowed and have their own section. Looking like Kelty will be accommodating away fans for the foreseeable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we had 10000 going it might! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big al Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 Hopefully after august the 9th this thread is redundant. Load of bollocks anyway that there are restrictions on attending outside sport events in numbers like the 3 leagues outside the premiership attract. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The SPFL should make it a requirement to allocate, say, 10% of the tickets to away fans and penalise teams who don’t. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DG.Roma Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 Annan had away fans in against Queen of the South and Queens Park, and I think for a friendly too, so Galabank should be a safe bet for an away day 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Further to this, tickets for the Stranraer game are available from fanbase and if tickets not sold a turnstile will be open, so assume away fans can get in. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Different clubs have different capacities no problem at Cowden we’re allowed 1000 so away fans will get in. Others with lower capacities may struggle to do so once they accommodate their own fans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mr_malcolm Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 It’s wild that some clubs aren’t allowed 50-100 away fans in for a couple of hours . Absolutely nuts 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhliston Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 Stenny have allocated 100 tickets for Albion fans for the terracing thru Fanbase app. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
