Visiting supporters will be able to take up 3000 tickets for away games next season, as opposed to the maximum of 2300 that clubs with large followings have been given in the past.

The Club would hope that Albion, Sunderland and West Ham take up 3000 tickets when they visit the Bescot, while Forest, Preston, Sheffield United, Cardiff and Ipswich are all known for having sizable away followings.

It is all part of breaking that 8000 barrier, and this is another big step in the right direction, despite some season ticket holders being unhappy about having to move out of their usual seats to accomadate the changes.
