Does anyone know if there are allocated blocks for the 2 sets of supporters or is this going to be a free-for-all?

Looks like a free for all.
I understand that this is apparently a "League" organised game so I would have expected allocated blocks but there has been no emails or announcements from the EIHL and only a tannoy announcement at the game on Saturday .
The tickets go on sale at 10.00 tomorrow apparently, perhaps when you log in from the Steelers site it will only allow you to book seats in certain blocks and pro rata from the Cardiff Devils website.
I feel a little bit peeved to be honest, I would have expected/appreciated an email to all Season Ticket Holders at the very least.

Tickets went on sale at 0900, I had a separate email from Ticketmaster/Steelers yesterday.
I’ve bought our normal Season Ticket seats, which are in 119, have to wait and see if I’m surrounded by Red Shirts.

It’ll be like going to the Rugby in Cardiff and cheering on the team playing Wales.

I've just been on and our season ticket seats (Block 117) are all grayed out along with others around us ???
They can't have all been sold already surely, some that are not season ticket seats are available.
It made me think that it was possibly a season ticket game and they had not told us but it can't be if it is a "League" fixture.
I know it doesn't take much but totally confused.

Just logged back in and our seats are now available (booked) must have been a fault with downloading the info on my computer ??
Panic over.

It looks like Devils fans have been allocated 101, 102, 201 & 202.... I can't see them being happy with that few amount of tickets allocated, but I guess there's nothing stopping anyone from buying other tickets. That being said, I have seen on twitter that a fair few folks complained when it was first announced that they wouldn't be going anyway with it being a mid-week game, so I wonder how many tickets they will need.

The seats we have in Block 115 were not available so I've picked some in 103 right next to the Cardiff fans so I hope we don't get a thrashing, or even just lose.
They are not bad really we once went to a game in Hull , Hull vs Cardiff on a night when the Steelers were not playing and sat with the Cardiff fans, it was quite entertaining, if a bit noisy.
