Cardiff City have been offered 33,800 match tickets for the Division Two Play-off final, 3,000 more seats than Queens Park Rangers have been given.

The difference in the number of seats is due to the set-up of the Millennium Stadium.

One part of the North side of the stadium only has two tiers, as it backs on to Cardiff RFC's Arms Park Ground, which is the side Queens Park Rangers fans will be located for the final.

Chief Executive, David Davies gave his thoughts on the decision on the clubs official web-site.

"First, this is a decision that was taken following a meeting between the police and the Football League at which neither club were present.

"The main reason for the existence of an uneven distribution is the design of the stadium. We have been allocated the North End which actually has only two tiers, whilst the remainder of the stadium has three.

"In simple terms this means that the stadium is not symmetrical and it is therefore impossible to divide up each half of the stadium equally, in terms of seat numbers and stewarding.

"The decision to allocate the North end to Rangers was taken for security reasons, primarily based on the flow of supporters in and out of the city. It is unfortunate, but it is a decision that has been taken completely out of our hands.

"Nevertheless we have taken the full allocation of tickets we are entitled to and although I appreciate any frustration amongst Rangers supporters, I'm sure I don't need to worry about which set of fans will be creating the better atmosphere inside the stadium."

Cardiff have already sold 15,000 of their tickets to members and season ticket holders who are all entitled to two tickets each. The remainder are going to fans registered on the clubs database next week.

It's going to be one hell of a game! C'mon!
