Pools host Carlisle at The Vic on Saturday, August 28, and they have sold out their allocation of 900 tickets.

They have announced they will ask for more but there is no guarantee Pools would agree to that, especially given the likely high demand among home supporters too for what is traditionally always a hotly-contested fixture.
