The corporate blocks hold relatively few seats. 26 and 27 have been fully opened, they sold well before ST release and are pretty much sold out. It's only the very front section of 25 that hasn't been opened. Family area is getting towards 50% full. Away end has 4800 sold, more than we've allocated for years. Besides, was told the figure by somebody at the club. Suspect it's more than that now.

Front section of 25 has the camera for televised games so probably can't be opened anyway

Could be one of our most highly watched games of all time. The whole country will be Maidstone fans for the day.

Not sure how many watched play off final. But this will easily smash the viewing figures of a sky game like Leicester.

4800 away fans is impressive - how many did Leicester bring when they came?

Blocks A, C, D, F have a combined capacity of 500

Block 12 is the segregation block and hasn’t been open once this season. It has a capacity of 450. Block 13 has a capacity of 380.

So all those empty blocks you quoted have a combined 1400 seats. Not exactly a lot.
We've had away fans in 12 this year? There hasn't seemed to be a block gap recently

North Leics…...unfortunately
Talk of hammering them is a bit daft… it’s going to be hard fought until we get that first goal. But it’s how far into the game and then confidence grows for them and fear sets in for us. I’m looking forward to seeing their fans having the crack!!

1st goal within 5-10mins and they crumble. 7-0 Cov.

It’s not daft at all, it’s fully expected.

Confirmed that their ex Villa player, Ghanaian Paul Appiah ruled out with 2 yellow cards for a sending off tonight. As said, he will be gutted.

If Maidstone hadn't cancelled the game on Saturday he would've been able to play on Monday 😂

Guy who got sent off is on loan from Leicester. 21yo and was very good against Ipswich. Seems odd he is playing at 6 teir level.

It’s almost half of what the guy I was responding to was saying left in the whole stadium just in hospitality alone.

This is a photo taken at a ground Maidstone were playing at tonight in NLS. Avely or something which I think is somewhere in Essex.

The family area is nowhere near 50% full.

Hello, we are from Germany traveling to UK next week. We want to watch the game on Monday, are there any possibilities to get tickets without membership. Couldn't find information about general sale on the website. Would be a nice experience for us watching a cup game in another country.
You can probably pay on the gate as it is unlikely to be a total sell out, the club will confirm this in the days before. If not just create a membership it's free, and buy them online, they're on general sale now. Enjoy the game !

Wouldn't help them in the longer term but could they lodge an appeal even if it was frivolous? Not sure of timings but maybe he'd be able to play ?

Hi Boosh, nice comments on a post 11 days ago, maybe you should actually go to a game ?????

Aveley are a well run little club working with a fraction of Maidstone’s resources. Doing well in the league despite us and others poaching their players, and with someone released by Maidstone scoring last night. Maybe we should send them up to play next Monday and hope nobody notices.

We will do our best to enjoy it and hopefully bring colour and noise and some non-league 'pleased to be there for the day' attitude.

Now get selling tickets, Coventry. We need the money!

Until the club says otherwise, you can only buy tickets if you've got a 'purchase history'. In case our German friend isn't actually our 'tween friend, Boosh.
Which our German friend could have found out by contacting the club directly.
