After purchasing my ticket I was informed by on of the Swansea ticket office workers that it was not possible to select particular seat as it is allocated seating.
Does it mean I will know my seat number when I receive my ticket?
Or should be informed about that earlier?
I was on only one away Swansea game earlier and I could choose specific seating when I was buying my ticket.
Thanks. |  | | |  |

When you get your ticket and voucher it actually says unallocated if it is the same as mine.
So no way you could choose your seat as I guess none of us know where we will be sittng |  |

You'll be able to choose anywhere when you are there the away end holds something like 5,000 or something ridiculous like that there will be about 700 Swans fans [Post edited 29 Oct 2019 9:45]

Every time I’ve been to Wigan you can pretty much sit where you like. One of the few away games where you can sit down if you’re old like me by going a few rows behind the main body of fans. |  |

Anybody planning to go up by train on the Newport Manchester line?
Any Aberdare gardeners want to share a can? [Post edited 30 Oct 2019 21:53]

Lovely scenery on that route up through the Marches.
Downside: it's about 4 and a quarter hours from Swansea to Manchester on this route, usually only two or three carriages, and if you're unlucky, all the toilets might be out of order.
It's particularly cruel on smokers. I used to jump off at Crewe (where it often stops for 5-10 minutes) and have a fag on the platform - until smoking was banned on platforms. Now, thanks to e-cigs, I can smoke with impunity in the train's toilets.
Used to be a very reasonably priced route as well, but is now absurdly over-priced. |  | | |

Will get an over 50’ies ticket £ 28 return until the end November. You’re spot on though mate. The old Arriva two coach specials. Did you ever come across the singing conductor on that line? Absolute star. [Post edited 30 Oct 2019 22:47]

When i first moved up north and before i started driving i used to get the preston - crewe -- cardiff - swansea train.
Fvck me that was a long arduous journey, especially the crewe to cardiff train.
Safe to say i dont miss it one iota. | | | |

And nothing to do with the 57 miles and 80 minutes to Wigan compared to 4h20min and minimum of 185 miles (over the hills) or 230+ by motorway then? | | | |

Yes, I did.
A great laugh he was.
Have come across quite a few amusing and eccentric conductors over the years, as well as the occasional humorous train manager, such as the one who made the following announcement over the tannoy (that's PA to younger folk) on a Hull-bound service I was on one night:
"This train is now approaching Leeds", he said in the usual flat monotone, as about 90% of the passengers got out of their seats ready to leave the train. He then continued with this:
"For all those leaving at Leeds...WHY?
What has Hull ever done to you?
Have you ever actually been there?
No?
Why not retake your seats, and just give Hull a chance?"
The 90% who left that train must all have had smiles on their faces, I think. | | | |

It's a bit further for us too. |
Yes Joe it is much further for you Swan fans
We do travel in huge numbers whether it is Wales, London, Bristol, Norfolk or up North for the reasons I've explained in my above post.
Btw I thought your fans were great when you beat us at ER at the end of August [Post edited 31 Oct 2019 18:46]

Just under twice the population.
Just saying |
Still a big difference Fireboy
Teams in populated areas such as Liverpool, Manchester, London, BIrmingham, Leeds, Glasgow, etc are bound to attract more fans
Swansea's home attendances are decent considering the size/population of your city | | | |
