Although season-ticket holders can pay in cash at the the turnstiles (strictly one admission per season ticket), we would strongly advise that tickets are purchased in advance if possible. Once the ground is full, cash admission at the turnstile will no longer be possible.
Non Season-ticket holders must purchase a match ticket in advance.

TICKET OFFICE OPENING HOURS: (PAYMENT IN CASH ONLY PLEASE)
FRIDAY 3rd MAY:
Match-day office, accessed via gates on Nevile Road (next to the school): 7am to 7:30pm

Cash on the day then (if we beat Eastleigh of course). That will be ahem interesting

Can expect a gate of about seven thousand, don't forget, tickets can be bought, right up 'til kick-off, so if 4500 approx already sold, 7000 +, is a realistic figure.

It's a massive distance for an evening match with an early KO to suit TV and not necessarily the fans.

Eastleigh are running away coach travel - tickets are an astounding £10 all the way to North Wales and return which is a fantastic gesture and might add a few more to the gate but for a working day I doubt it will be many combined with the very short time period available for people to make arrangements.

Salford initially gave us just 1200 tickets for NYD - it wasn't until Geraint Parry made strong representation that we got an increased allocation.
Think in the end we had 1400 in a total crowd of 4,044 - well that was the official attendance but not so sure as Wrexham fans were paying to get in through the home turnstiles and simply walking around the pitch perimeter and joining the away end - no barriers or physical obstructions to prevent this - a very tin pot set up all round for a club still finding their feet in a higher league - happy to sell plenty of ale but just provide one portakabin inadequate bog behind the away stand - which would be sufficient for the visit of Dover on a Tuesday night but no where near enough to cope with a red invasion.

Just out of interest, how many would we take if the fixture was the other way round. We’ve got a few London reds that would make the trip, I’d say we could have got close to 800.

How many did we take to Luton?

I recall the end was busy but not sold out. Could be wrong.

About 800-900 I think.
