According to the Football Ground Guide, there is an allocation of 3000 for away fans. Surely thats not correct. If so, we will have a lot of unhappy people round here !!!

Well I think a 10% away allocation is the minimum in the FA Cup but can be increased to 15% at the home side's discretion. Correct me if I'm wrong.

10% = 4,264
15% = 6,396

Thats for normal league games. Away teams get a larger allocation for FA Cup games.

To be honest, I can't see Villa selling out their end so I see no reason why we shouldn't be allocated the full 15%.

It's not a case of whether Villa sell out or not, if Brighton ask for the full 15% then we will get the full 15%.
