So I suppose if you want to stand on the terraces you need to buy from Carlisle's website.
No, you wait until the extra tickets (in the open standing end) become available from our club.
The extra tickets will be the rest of the seats in the East Stand Away section and not the standing area in the Waterworks end.

[SwearFilter] joke this.
They don't appear to have declared it as all ticket [ yet ] so presumably, that means any tickets left will be on sale on the day.

But be warned they will deny this in the run-up to the game then announce it at 4pm on the Friday afternoon.

I'm in a dilemma now do I not use the guaranteed ticket via my season ticket and wait till they go on open sale in the hope I can purchase two tickets, FFS the ground is 18000 capacity and there will be nowhere near that.
They'll give you the full allocation no doubt but you will have to pay for the full allocation upfront with no refund for any you don't sell.

And then at the end of the season, they will wonder why more away fans didn't attend

As has been stated there is room for 3.5k if they had anything about them they would be doing deals to sell the lot i.d put a batch on Groupon buy 5 adult tickets pay for 4 or buy an adult and 2 kids and get another kids ticket free.

The reduction in the value of each transaction is party covered by the club not having to pay people to conduct the transaction and buy selling multiple tickets in one transaction.

You don't pay up front for your allocation. You just send back any tickets unsold.

The original 700 or so tickets will be sale or return but it is common practice in the EFL especially when the home teams ground can accommodate a large away following such as Brunton Park can and the visitors ask for more tickets you buy the full extra allocation with no refund on what you don't sell.

Seems a stupid system. It discourages Barrow from getting more tickets and potentially reduces the number of away fans attending the match. Carlisle's gate receipts suffer. Same as the can't buy tickets on the day weird
Just say no to VAR :sentoff:

Sunderland and Everton (both away) did that to us (Carlisle) a few years back, and our board (as usual) bottled it. So you will get around 1500 'seated tickets', if your club decides to go ahead with the extra tickets.
You will not get any standing tickets in the Petteril End, as it doesn't have a safety certificate (and hasn't for a few years), unless they can miraculously find one from now until the game.

What's happened to this train Cumbria Police were going to run to the game?
