No its not tit for tat. It has been agreed between the 4 teams in the playoffs that for each game the away fans will get 2000 tickets and that all tickets will be 20 quid.
The upper tier of the West Stand at Hillsborough technically holds just over 4000, but the police and safety advisory group have consistently refused permission to Wednesday to use all the seats due to the excessive segregation policy they have!! The game next week will be a sell out but that will mean somewhere around 34,000 under the current SAG guidelines in a stadium that has nearly 40,000 seats!!
