2,000 tickets have been allocated to the Imps fans for the local derby at Notts County. It is the final game before Christmas and the Imps will hope for a bit of Christmas cheer at Meadow Lane. City did the double over their black-and-white neighbours last season, the first time that has happened for many a year and it was ironically Jamie Forrester scoring the winner at Meadow Lane.
A hefty £20 is required by City fans to get into the gates at Meadow Lane. The new away end is located in the Jimmy Sirrel Stand, altered at the end of last season following County protests about The Kop Stand being allocated to travelling support. It now means that the away allocated is reduced to 2,000, denying City the chance of taking more than 2,500 for the third year in five.
County have a few former Imps in their ranks, namely Jamie Forrester (right) and Richard Butcher. Forrester was one of the most consistant goalscorers seen at Sincil Bank, netting at an average of better than a goal every three games, Butcher certainly wasn't shy of the net either, scoring several memorable goals.
The full pricing structure for the game on December 20th is...
ADULTS - £20
CONC (60+, Students, 16-17 year olds) - £12
U16 - £5
