The end blocks are obvious but i'm surprised there's so many seats still available on halfway in the Curbs stand. What's the price difference between blocks C & D?

@Weegie Addick@castrust would you proactively ask the club about the policing arrangements for after the game? Head them off at the pass before the final pre-match meeting of all the "relevant authorities"?
We did this after a member’s query a little while back. Thanks for prompting us to share more widely.
Here is the full response from club SLO:
“I have spoken to the relevant people at the club who want to assure you that we will not be holding back home fans like what happened in 2017. This was done for a serious matter, but we will not be doing this again. The club are working closely with the police who are working externally during the event.
Despite ownership changes, rest assured that all club staff are aware of the issues this fixture has caused in the past. The staff that work for the club full-time, and on matchdays, are all well-versed in how best to approach and work this game.
I hope that this helps solve any concerns. Ultimately, any out of the ordinary decisions that are made around the day, will only come from external recommendations of the police, but we are all working hard to ensure that the Millwall game is enjoyable and safe for all fans.”

This aged well!
So does this suggest that there is a ‘serious matter’ again this time - some sort of threat / intelligence ?

Well, they are technically correct 'we will not be holding back home fans like what happened in 2017'. They just plan to make us walk 20 minutes out of our way. Always need to be careful with these comms teams twisting the truth to fit their narrative.

That’s also only those travelling by train as well. Most other home fans will be unaffected.
If you're a public organisation or politician and decide to turn off replies to your tweet before even posting it, it's probably a good time to step back and consider why.
Sorry if already posted only just catching up but what’s the logic of shutting Ransom Walk when it’s the station that the police are worried about and that’s still closed off
Gonna be great with 20000 people trying to get over the railway footbridge…
Pain in the arse particularly following the inevitable defeat 😂
None of my mates are millwall, none of my family are Millwall, I’d rather eat my own testicles than go and watch Millwall when we’re away and I hope we absolutely batter them tomorrow

The most sensible thing that has been written on this forum for a long time

Surely at least 50% of non-train foot passenger also go towards Charlton church lane? I park over that way and it’s going to take 15-20 mins longer to loop round.

I assume because they don’t want 20k people trying to force their way through a tight space under the arches.

It's clearly a "double serious matter" this time, because not only have they made the same decision as last time, they've made it despite giving assurances that they wouldn't do it.
Annoying, but I kind of get it. Not quite sure why we can't just lock them in for an hour after the game like they do to us though. Not too fussed though, they'll have all fucked off 15mins before the end when we're 4 up and then we can conga our way back to the station at leisure! COYA

Very clear from those two blocks (and to a lesser extent west M&N v P) that a proportion of people are resistant to paying £40, which is unsurprising. I think the issue with West H is that it’s the wrong place - the demand is to sit behind the goal, not primarily because the lower tier is cheaper.
