£31 for North Stand. As I expected, if not a bit cheaper.

Wonder what the capacity is...
The best team we ever had- since i've been watching the Harriers (2002-)

Glad their out but what a delay!
Surprised theyve given stage two to Halifax attendees only but still, there were various scenarious they could have done which would have drawn praise and uproar.
Prices were to be expected.

Prices are fair to he honest, keen to see the allocation West Ham get though. Be stupid to give them 1500 like Reading had.

Very fair pricing, as an OAP I was expecting to pay at least £35 for the East Stand. Well done to the club!

Reasonable pricing given what they could have tried. And a simple system for allocating I suppose. Wonder if they considered incentives for attending this Saturday.

Disappointing WH have so many tickets. Expect there wasn't the appetite security wise for anything else.

Interesting it's Halifax attendees over Reading attendees. Again, would be interesting to hear the reasoning with this. I have no issue with it btw and have a couple of theories. Maybe we will never know.

Less 'brand new lifelong' fans at the Halifax game. Seems fair to me

Probably because the Reading game attracted more of the young troublemaker types and the glory hunters and those who bought tickets to sell on at inflated prices.

I suspect there aren't enough to go round if every STH and every Reading purchaser wanted a West Ham ticket.

We had roughly 300 more home fans vs Reading than Halifax. Add on a small number of STH who didn't go to the Reading game but will likely go to West Ham and there would probably be 350 or so more who would qualify for a ticket if they used Reading rather than Halifax.

For a game such as this there are bound to be more tickets made available to sponsors so fewer for regular fans so they had to use Halifax attendance is they were going to base it on a single match.

I doubt many will hit general sale as even if STH or Halifax attendees can't go I'm sure they'll have people tapping them up for access to their ticket.

Can't argue with that arrangement or prices. Though I do feel for anyone who wasn't able to make a Halifax game for legit reasons. There is no perfect way of doing these things.

Saying that, I still think they missed a massive opportunity by not releasing half season tickets before. but maybe they're coming imminently?

Easy to get angry for giving West Ham more than their allocation but no way were they ever going to split the South stand. Not after the Reading game.
