Places are limited to around just over 1,000 not sure exactly. They take £20 (or did August 2006) admin fee and then face value of each ticket as and when they come up.

If any spaces left not renewed then they are allocated to gold/travel club members who are interested on a first-come first served basis.

You can join in the close season if they have spaces. Anything other than that you'd better ask the away scheme manager - they do have one.

just thinking (dangerous).............apart from pompy. fulham, chelsea, spuds, west ham and reading all our away games are practically 1 to 2 hours from my front door so well worth getting signed up for.

No the conditions are that you agree to purchase every match including FA Cup away but not replays. So they charge every match as they process them. Exception was when we had Newcastle/Boro moved and so close together you had the option to send back for refund.

How can next season be fully booked if they don't know who/how many will not renew :?:
