With safety restrictions still in place at Field Mill, Notts County have been sent an innitial allocation of just 955 tickets for the local derby with the Stags on Saturday 20th October.
However Chairman James Derry is still confident that the current 4, 684 limit in capcaity will be lifted back to the 70% level, in time for the game.
That would result in the visitors being allocated a futher 400 odd tickets.
The issue now appears to be just one turnstile not working correctly in the North Stand end of the ground, and Derry told the Mansfield CHAD website "We have identified the problem and SAG have agreed that if we can show a programme of how we are going to put the fault right, they will increase the capacity straight away to 70% 6,553.
