Does anyone know if tickets will be available on the day for this game? Heading to Scotland at 5am tomorrow morning and we were going to head home via Ashton Gate so can’t collect tickets.
You can buy now and opt to collect at the away ground if you're definitely going to go

Sadly not showing as an option now but I’ll try and ring the box office tomorrow and see if they can help.
Plenty of tickets still in Block 35 and a few in 41.
Personal view, I think it’s a little disappointing given all that’s happened in the last 12 months that we took 2,700 to Reading in L1 this time last year and we are struggling to sell our allocation for first game back in the Champ.
Wonder whether this whole knowing where you sit an away game thing is affecting these last sales or maybe people aren’t that bothered, certainly wouldn’t affect Millwall away…
Valley attendance less than 22k so by my reckoning the 2nd lowest of the Championship weekend ..
11 teams in the championship averaged 22K+ last season. 2 Of those got promoted, however the 3 that came down all averaged more. Birmingham also averaged more, so on that basis if our attendance was the same as Saturday we would rank 14th out of 24, if everyone else's attendance was the same as last season.

TBF, that Reading game was on the 31st August and most holidays would have been over by then, whereas we are probably in that peak point when there will be a lot of families on holiday. Other commitments are currently stopping me from going to Bristol atm, though I’m still working on trying to get around those, but I must admit that the ticket cost and price of the train fare did look a bit on the high side and expected it would put a lot of fans off particularly if they were taking kids along with them.
Personally would love to go to Bristol...it's a cracking town and some awesome beer spots (hello Left handed Giant in particular), but it's too early in the season for me as am away :-( I am also a bit more wary on the going away now that I am 'getting older'...Stockport for instance was a nightmare, top row, behind the goal, surrounded by our idiot fans who wanted to fight with each other, berated anyway not shouting at the players, and all wanting to 'sit where they like'....while being abusive to the stewards...just not pleasant really...

Middle of August when a lot of people are still away on holiday and you're disappointed that we've sold about 2,400 tickets? Seems like pretty decent numbers to me.

Think this on holiday thing is a fallacy. Some people might be away but that factor is likely far outweighed by the overall increased motivation / excitement factor of first away game, good weather and day out etc.
Unless we are suddenly flying in the top 6, we are much more likely to sell more tickets for Bristol away this Saturday than if the same fixture was in October or November.

As I said, just personal view, but yes, a little surprised. We sold out so many away ends last season, comfortably taking numbers like 2,800 to Peterborough, Reading etc that I thought they’d be huge enthusiasm for the opening away game that it would not even reach general sale (even accounting for holidays).
Still a good turnout and I’m sure will be a good atmosphere, I just anticipated higher demand all things considered

But we've been allocated 2,503 seats and 10 wheelchair spaces as per the OP, so clearly not the whole stand.

Reading and Peterborough are so much closer though, it’s an hour or so on the train compared to 3 hours plus travel to the ground

I did not know you were a tout Auntie Jean?
Hopefully it will spur our players on.

This is a novelty season
