Supporters attending tomorrow's opening League One home game against Crewe Alexandra will be given priority on tickets for the Carling Cup second round meeting with West Ham United.

Fans will be handed special match vouchers as they pass through the stadium turnstiles, which will offer a 24-hour window to purchase tickets for the clash with the Hammers a week on Tuesday.

Vouchers will only be given out in cash turnstiles - supporters who already have matchday tickets or plan to purchase one should retain them for the same priority advantage.

Normal matchday admission prices will be in place for the tie, with no early bird discounts.

Tickets for the game will go on sale from 9:00am on Monday (20th August) to season ticket holders, Presidents Club members, 1883 Club members, Helpline members and Supporters Club Shareholding Scheme subscribers (maximum one per membership).

Supporters Club members, Senior Pirates and Young Pirates will be able to purchase tickets from 9:00am on Wednesday 22nd August (maximum one per membership).

Tickets will be on sale at both Pirate Leisure at the Memorial Stadium and the Supporters Club shop in Kingswood.

All remaining tickets will then go on general sale exclusively online from 7:00pm on Friday, and then for personal callers and telephone bookings from 9:00am on Saturday.

Online sales will end at midnight on Sunday 26th August with any remaining tickets going on sale to personal callers only between 10:00am and 3:00pm on Bank Holiday Monday 27th August, the day before the game, at Pirate Leisure only. If tickets have sold out by Monday then neither club shop will be open on this day.

There will be no tickets available on the day of the match whatsoever.

West Ham fans have been awarded the entire Becks South Stand behind the goal, along with the Away Terrace.
