  1. All games kick off at the same time so on TV or not makes no difference.
  2. I don't think Hull give any more than that, so we can't.
  3. I think it will. Might shift another 100-150 today but that would still leave just over 100.
  4. This will sell out tomorrow, only a couple of hundred left.
  5. It needs to be clearly communicated and this is only an absolute minimum requirement that the club should apply. Ideally it's much sooner
  6. Sheff Wed and Swansea were within a week of the match.
  7. Middlesbrough game is pretty much sold out though, so the club will see no need to put it on general sale. It hasn't even gone to booking history. They should put every match to booking history if not sold out, like this game. Otherwise you will end up with empty seats. If tickets are available 3 days before a match there is no excuse to not at least drop it to booking history. If tickets left on the day, maybe even allow general sale (walk up and buy).
  8. Wednesday/Thursday will be a better judgement as to how sales are going. However, I would be extremely surprised if this doesn't sell out by Thursday latest (501+).
  9. We should get close to 5,000. Most teams got that allocation (even Leeds).
  10. This one: https://supporterstravel.co.uk/fixture/bournemouth/
  11. Don't think we will sell more than 2,000 anyway
  12. Not what you are asking for but I have always parked in the shopping centre. Looks like it would be around £5 tomorrow.
  13. Unfortunately the ticket office are mostly useless. The best person to contact for this would be Jim. He will no doubt listen to any needs you and your grandson will have and get you sorted.
  14. You'll have to wait until next season then. No replays in the FA Cup now.
  15. That sort of pricing should be standard. Well done Hull.
  16. Nailed on Friday night surely
  17. That last line is rubbish. 1. Leeds are not a promotion rival!!! 2. Souttar will not improve them dramatically.
  18. A TIFO is already planned for that game. Even if not, it would not be easy to turn something around so quickly. Needs design going to club for approval, materials ordering, volunteers of the group to make it (paint, roll foils etc.) and then planning the setup pre-match. However, there are possibly other ways that are quicker and easier to back Enzo at the next match and show at least some appreciation.
  19. Fully understand that, but I don't agree with it. Especially since the football club is part of the wider community. It should be more accessible. As I mentioned above, when you have players on the books earning 6 figure sums on a weekly basis but you can't drop prices by £10, it makes you think. Something isn't right there. Get the same thing with large organisations like banks where the top 10% are probably earning 90% of the money. And the majority aren't worth it. And my main gripe with the pricing is the difference between what a STH pays per match compared to a member/non-member. And I have a ST so don't even fall into that bracket. If you know you can only make half of the home games, you are financially better off having a ST than a membership and buying individual match tickets. Might have this wrong but aren't you a member?
  20. For me, it's less about increasing uptake and more about making Leicester games more affordable to more people. Although cheaper prices would certainly drive more demand. FA Cup pricing was OK but again, could be better if being picky. It seems a lot of STH's didn't bother. If it was £10 rather than £18 for STH's, would we have sold out? Hard to say for definite but I think we would. The other thing is that we were "lucky" it was Birmingham and not Hull as prices would have been the same but attendance would have been probably 5k less. Still much better value for families/groups attending than a league game for sure.
  21. If we are reliant on money from those tickets then as a club we are badly run, commercially. You would be annoyed if your employer halved your wages to make more profit. Just because it makes commercial sense, doesn't mean it's right. Let's assume 5,000 tickets every game are available to buy. Multiplied by 19 (going off PL). Assuming every game sells out (which it should in the PL), we are at 95,000 ticket sales for the season. If we assume an average reduction of £10 per ticket, that's roughly £1M gap. What's our wage bill? Pretty sure £1M barely scrapes the edges over the season. How about we reduce our wage bill slightly and don't give out ridiculous contracts and be a bit more sensible with transfer business? The latter will not be such a big deal but saving £10 off a match ticket can make a huge difference to individuals. I see what you are saying, but it's a lazy excuse and simply money making at all costs. It increases the affordability divide in the fanbase and those at the bottom suffer.
  22. Yes, you can move your ST into any available seats for any game as a one off. If the ticket office don't have a clue, once again, Jim is your man to sort that. It was something he brought up in a meeting over the summer.
  23. This sounds wrong...
  24. Also, that highlighted part, was it the club not offering you many seats in there or was it the fact the seats were much further back or something?
