SamL Posted 14 January 2020 Posted 14 January 2020 Seems more have been released this evening - still 350-odd left.
CosbehFox Posted 14 January 2020 Posted 14 January 2020 So if we’ve established that 33 went to members ballot, 33 went to hospitality, let’s say 30 boxes at 4 tickets that’s 120 and to finish off let’s 35 members of players/coaching staff at a pair = 70. That’s 256. Supporters club? That’s say two coaches which is 110 at 55 seats. That’s 366. So who else has their hands on them? Even if you count say 50 returned that’s still just under 100 uncounted for. Plus I’m being over-estimating boxes and staff on football side.
VLC86 Posted 14 January 2020 Posted 14 January 2020 To be fair to the ticket office I’m not so sure they have dished them out to family and friends for this.
Guest worth_the_wait Posted 14 January 2020 Posted 14 January 2020 In all the discussions about ticket availability, it is worth remembering just how many people have got a high away points. This is our 6th season in the Premier League. We have pretty much have sold out most of those games - nearly every premier league match we've sold 2500-3000 away tickets. Add on 22 away matches in the same period. That is a serious lot of away points distributed around a lot of people. I go to approx half the away games, give or take a few, and if the away allocation is anywhere near 1300/1400 ish ... I don't get anywhere near it. (unless there is low demand eg 2016-17 we played Bournemouth away on a night match just before Christmas). It's just one of the "downsides" of sustained success - difficulty in getting away tickets.

Players must surely be getting more than a pair each, think of all the hangers-on they have in the modern game. I'd imagine 5 or 6 tickets, just a guess, but i'd be shocked if Vardy only got two tickets for an away game, his agent alone must get two.

I listened to Peter Crouch’s podcast and they covered this subject. He says it’s standard for them to get 2 tickets and they will swap them between each other depending on who wants more.

Personally I think you’re underestimating the playing side and backroom staff. I don’t think they’re limited to just two. I know it’s a while back, but they defo used to get at least 4 because I was a recipient of them for a whole season.

Leicester69 Posted 15 January 2020 Posted 15 January 2020 87 standing 12 seats as at 8.37am Wednesday

Still hoping it makes tomorrow but chances are very slim. I was lucky with Luton but have missed out on Burton by one bracket and probably this one. Once again proves that there are lots of people on very high points 400+, then it starts to trickle down and spread out until about 310+ where the next big load sit.
