Is everyone still being taken to the chesterfield season ticket page when clicking the link?

Presumably at 9 tomorrow the link will take us to the Leicester match. Currently it takes us to the chesterfield season ticket page

I’ve booked sainsburys at Meole for £3.50

The website makes me slightly nervous as sometimes I can view my tickets, and sometimes I can't. Pity we can't print them till a week beforehand.

I think that means it was overwhelmed by Leicester fans!

That’s just not true. He’s repeatedly said he didn’t want to go, but that if he was forced to go, he’d rather it was Chelsea (because, let’s face it, they’re the only Big 6 team who would actually play him, given that Enzo is the manager). He’s going because he has to.

Not that fast, because people will be busy buying Shrewsbury tickets!

You have to register with Lens to buy the tickets. Then when you log into your account, you can see the tickets there. Apparently about a week before the match you can either upload them to an app, or print them. I’ve bought 4 tickets (me and kids), and each one has my name on it, so they can be given to whoever you want. The most one person can buy is 6.

I read somewhere that 30th June is now being seen as a deadline day for lots of clubs, as so many of us are battling PSR. The article said that with Sunday being a non working day, in reality it meant lots of deals would get finalised on Monday. The implication was that this would be permitted and would still count as expenditure in the 23/24 season. I can see 3 scenarios. 1) We sell KDH in time, and it balances our books for 23/24 so we avoid a second points deduction. 2) We don’t sell KDH in time, so we get extra points deducted, but we keep a good player 3) We sell KDH, but Chelsea force us to accept a small amount, so we still get a second points deduction, and we lose LDH too. 1 and 2 are OK.

My understanding is that the whole point of selling KDH is to get enough money to get us out of a financial hole for 23/24 season. If Chelsea don’t offer enough for us to achieve that, we may as well keep KDH. So I hope Rudkin does hold out for the right amount of money, because otherwise it’s pointless.

It's such a mess isn't it. Whoever got the job of posting the ticket info, accidentally put the access code on there. I saw the bit about general sale being 1st July, but noticed the access code, and thought maybe STHs got sooner access. So I went in and bought tickets.

We can't print them till a week before can we?

Will our tickets still be valid if we bought them early?!

I've just bought 4

I don't know, but logic would dictate that the latter is better from a PSR perspective, because we'd have the £35m in time for the 23/24 accounts, but wouldn't spend the £10m till the 24/25 season.

OK I've logged in. Can anyone see a way of selecting tickets, or does the system just allocate them?

He wouldn't be upset surely? I don't think he wants to go at all.

There are details on LCFC but I can’t work it out. Have to create a Lens account etc.

This was my understanding too. But it makes me think - if we can’t get KDH sold by Sunday, then surely there’s no point selling him at all.

Why on earth would we do a swap when it’s money we need !

I thought we were facing a double points deduction this season, for breaching PSR over 22/23 and 23/24. Meaning that if we sold a player before 30th June, we won’t be as badly overspent for 23/24. But yes, the 23/24 breach was in the EFL, and we don’t know if that punishment will occur this season, or if they’ll wait till we’re relegated again, and then hit us with a points deduction. But all the talk is of the EFL breach being applicable in the PL.

I can see the merits in selling him, but really only if we can do it in time to benefit us from the PSR point of view.

Surely there’s no point selling him unless we can do it before 30th June, so it helps with PSR and reduces our points deduction? If we sell him after that, it won’t help with PSR, and it’ll just make us a weaker team. So it makes no sense for Chelsea to be approaching us with only 4 days left. It worries me, because it would be a pointless sale.

so for STHs, is it 8am or 9am online?!

I wonder if they’ll release more, because those tickets will sell fast I reckon
