Last season all home games went to silver except Everton, it is not 500 tickets for silver it is 500 guaranteed. Most games there will be a lot more than that available. Most members will be like me, long term fans that don't live in Leicester so can only go to a few games, or new fans that will soon lose interest when we aren't winning every week. Arsenal will be a good test, if you can get tickets for the first home game of the season against one of the big boys, although on Sky then it will give you a good idea of how difficult it will be to get tickets. Champions league tickets will be interesting midweek is not always convenient for everyone, what are the CL rules on away allocations? Do we need a larger away allocation? Not all season ticket holders and gold members will necessarily buy tickets, but a lot will, so it will be difficult. Yes, I'm trying for a ticket to the Arsenal game when they go on sale on August 5th to Silver Foxes members...but will obviously be annoyed if I'm not successful in obtaining one!

It seems to be saying that 500 will be up for grabs with the Silver Foxes on the said date, now that the Gold allocation has sold out.....fingers crossed if so. Failing that then I am still able to go to the Swansea game the following weekend anyway which should theoretically be a slightly easier fixture to obtain tickets for........

It does appear to be saying that, it's going to be carnage for silver members trying to get them can't help but think that local people to the stadium who can get there for when the shop opens have a major advantage in getting a ticket Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flintshirefox Posted 3 August 2016 Share Posted 3 August 2016 I decided against upgrading to Gold because 1. £105 for two Silver memberships is enough 2. My mate was staying as a Silver and we use each others' memberships to get extra tickets. Emailed the club this morning as I couldn't work out why there are only 2000 tickets available for members: 23000 Season tickets 1500 Gold members 500 Silver members 3000 Arsenal fans Total: 28000. When I queried this I was told that the rest go to hospitality, sponsors, box holders, players, mascots, grass roots etc. But 4000 tickets???? I missed out on the Everton game and it was a bittersweet experience watching it in the pub. I fear I am also going to miss out on big games this season. Even if I'd upgraded to Gold I think there is still this risk, so these membership fees seems like easy money for the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a few questions (not that I expect you to be able to answer): Will it be 4000 hospitality etc every game, will any unallocated tickets go on sale? At what point? Is it just that the Arsenal game has sold all the hospitality? Or has more hospitality been made available for the Arsenal game as first home game of the season? Last season did we have 4000 allocated for hospitality? If so I'm not that fussed as apart from Everton I went to every game I wanted to on my Silver Membership. If the club has upped the hospitality allocation then I will be a bit pissed off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sol thewall Bamba Posted 3 August 2016 Share Posted 3 August 2016 Somehow I doubt they'll shift 4000 corporate tickets for the Burnley game. At little bit of common sense wouldn't go amiss here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stripeyfox Posted 5 August 2016 Share Posted 5 August 2016 If the current demand is maintained then a silver membership simply buys you a 1 in 12 chance of getting a ticket. If I've understood correctly - that there is only going to be approximately 2000 tickets released for sale, 1500 of which are up for grabs by the 4000 Gold members Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain... Posted 8 August 2016 Share Posted 8 August 2016 Any Silvers got tickets yet? Or does 9am now mean 9am, you used to be able to get online at midnight. Also Arsenal details seem to have disappeared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxhateram Posted 8 August 2016 Share Posted 8 August 2016 Nope because you can't call because they terminate calls because apparently the queuing system is full and online isn't working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

possiblygeorge Posted 8 August 2016 Share Posted 8 August 2016 I'll be coming over for the Stoke & Sunderland home fixtures and Everton away in March-April with a mate. I have my tickets sorted so far but bought a Membership for myself so I could help secure tickets for the Stoke & Sunderland matches for my mate. I would've travelled over by myself but i haven't been on a Plane since I was about 5 and i'm worried if i go alone i'd stress out for the full 28 hour flight Seeing as i have my tickets sorted thanks to help from someone here, at this stage, he's happy to travel with me to Leicester even if he misses out on a match or all of them. But thought i'd give myself the best chance to get both of us going even though it means we won't be seated together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
