S'cuse my ignorance but won't a full (hopefully) east stand make a fair wedge for the club? Why would this be a bad decision?

It's a financial decision. Not popular, maybe, but correct.
We still have 1 side and 2 ends.

Thanks for the info." the" Didn't Brentford ask for 3700 tickets.
I have mixed feelings over this one one hand it should make a good atmosphere and even with 3700 of them we should out number them about 2 to 1. But on the other hand I feel for loyal Orient fans who are being placed somewhere else in the Stadium. Do you think this will be a full house - a sell out !

This is a terrible decision by the club.
For once they should have put there greed on one side for the extra cash and give us every chance of winning what could possible be our biggest game since Oxford.
Having that many ways fans nearly makes it like a home game for Brentford given the non existent support from the west stand.
1500 tickets max should have been allocated, I reckon we might have still sold out even with that allocation to Brentford.

With the match being at midday and on TV, I don't. The extra revenue might make the difference (or it may pay for Barry's new yacht, you decide).

I understand the financial viewpoint but on TV it will look like the whole stadium is full of Brentford fans  Orient fans better make some good noise!  |

Brentford are getting 2,600 tickets with the missing seats left empty (probably at the front of the East) to help crowd control. We have insisted that they pay for the first 2,100 up front on a sale and no return basis the additional 500 are an optional take up. £45,000 up front and another possible £11,000 if the sell the extra 500.
I don't think that's too bad

I don't think that's too bad You sure Brentford are paying us £21.43 a ticket? Face value selling price £23 Adult with concessions and kids tickets at £15 they will lose out. |

I get where your coming from Shenfield but we've been here before with Leeds,Norwich and some others who have had the whole east stand and so it doesn't always affect the result for O's. |

Russ will instruct the lads to keep it on the deck to limit the amount of Brentford fans in shot. |
