can the club be spiteful and reduce away allocation for the league fixture?

on a side note I wish WHL was a more hostile turkish style pit for away teams

THST have apparently tweeted that they have filed a freedom of information application with regard to the allocation negotiations. I don't expect anything to come of it but good luck to them.

What was interesting to me was that a couple of Arsenal fan groups supported THST's initial demand that we be given the full allocation. Good for them. Proper fans who understand what it's all about. Showing a lot more class than their club in this instance.

We can't do anything about league games. We can reciprocate for cup games........but only if we get the chance to do so.

rough calculations if every ST holder applies; people with 286 loyalty points should be enough

How do you arrive at that, there's 3789 over 300, then 5109 with 250 -300 so how can you know how many have what - I've got 278:cry:

dont think we can for the league, but the OS have said if it goes to a replay they will get a reduced ticket allocation to the same % as they have given us

no chance, that's a Tottenham fans pub
Thats the entire point......and I think it's a nice touch from Spurs to make the replay(if there is one) a category B match.....mugged them right off.

This is out of order, if the host club can't provide the 15% which the visiting club is entitled to due to segregation and therefore safety issues! then the FA should step in and force them to close the home section where the host club say there is an issue with segregation. If part of the ground is then closed so be it, the visiting club shouldn't be penalised it's rightful allocation due to the host clus inability to be able to segregate.

We are entitled to 9000 tickets under the tournament rules and Arsenal should be forced by the FA to provide them and close part of the home section if required!

Weak play by the FA as usual!

Good to see Spurs have said Arsenal will only get just over 3,000 if a replay happens. Hope the club charges Arsenal fans the same amount for tickets.

We need to cut their allocation for the league, we get 3k and give them nearly 3k...how is that fair?

The club have been weak, should have insisted on this as I notice that there is no mention of 'Police advice'. If safety is an issue why is kick off not 12pm?

Fact is it's down to money, they gave Chelsea 9k because they struggled to sell tickets, they know that won't be a problem this time hence 'safety and security'.

When we played them in the league cup a few years ago they got nearly 15% (half the Park Lane).

Don't blame the FA, the club has seemingly agreed to this or are at least unwilling to make a stand. Surely they don't have to accept anything less than the full amount and Arsenal should have to appeal to the FA to allow us less. They're hiding behind concerns about fan behaviour and it looks like the club don't want to get on the wrong side of any potential disaster.
