Lincoln City’s return to the second tier after a 65-year absence is set to begin with their first match at Middlesbrough on August 15th. To help supporters plan their attendance, this four-part series will provide detailed information about ticket prices and allocations for each away fixture in the upcoming Championship season.
Middlesbrough
The opening away game sees Lincoln City travel to Riverside Stadium with a full allocation of 2118 tickets, despite the stadium's capacity exceeding 30,000 seats. This decision by Boro has already sold out, leaving only one ticket available for home supporters as of Wednesday evening.
Bolton Wanderers
Lincoln’s next away match is against Bolton Wanderers on August 29th. The fixture will be a Category B game, with tickets priced at £32 for adults and £18 for under-18s. The South Stand will host the visiting supporters, similar to previous League One visits.
Bristol City
The first away match in September is against Bristol City on Tuesday, 8th September (subject to League Cup progression). With a maximum allocation of around 3400 tickets, this fixture should not be difficult for Imps supporters to secure. The match will feature the 'Michael Skubala derby,' and the pricing structure remains consistent with previous Championship matches.
Preston North End
Following their trip to Bolton, Lincoln City faces Preston North End on September 12th. This fixture offers one of the most reasonable away allocations in the second tier, with up to 5600 tickets available for visiting supporters. The Billy Shankly Kop Stand will be exclusively for Imps fans.
Sheffield United
The October 10th match against Sheffield United at Bramall Lane is a significant trip for Lincoln City. With renovation works ongoing in the Upper Tier, away supporters will have their allocation in the Lower Stand. The ticket prices are expected to remain competitive with those of other Category B fixtures, and high demand is anticipated depending on the team's performance.
Millwall
The final fixture covered in this guide is against Millwall on October 17th. Due to television scheduling, the match will kick off at 12:30 PM. The North Stand will be split between home and away supporters, with Lincoln City receiving an allocation of around 1700 tickets. This match presents a significant test for the club's ticketing system.
