    best guess at Worst case 0, more likely between 5K and 8K

    based on the fact that out of 17000 for the chelsea game we only had 1400 for general sale ie 15600 tickets went.

    guessing allocation went something like
    15600 -
    1300 -- centenary member tickets
    13400 -- 6700x2 season tickets
    900 staff tickets acadamy tickets sponsors etc


    We should 33000 tickets

    this time ST holders have 4 and centenary have 2 its also likely that all the others are doubled up so we could sell 31000 + some tickets from the stubs from Ipswich

    so if 2000 of those didnt have tickets from another source we could sell out before general sale

    In practice 4pm Sunday in London will put some off, also the Centenary members with ST's would have to queue twice this time so most wont bother also not as many will take all 4 as took all 2 so I would expect us to shift about 25K or so before general sale - may be wrong though. I was surprised we only had 1400 for the chelsea game

    I can't see very many al all ending up on General Sale

    So if you are a Non Season Ticket holding Oakwell attending fan but can't get a STH to buy your tickets you'll end up with a expensive ticket at best, no ticket at worst.
