2892nd in the queue!

I was allocated 2888, 40 minute wait, went for a coffee. 

 

Plenty of tickets in the area I was after, 132, (same as Cup Final) and all went through smoothly. Tickets printed off. Well managed, no complaints at all.

[BoyJones]

Tickets have names on.

It seems that people already have their tickets. Were they emailed to you? I haven’t received anything yet

Mine took around 30 mins for the email

Ok, thanks, good to know. It’s been about an hour since I bought mine, I’ll try and be a little more patient. The purchase is confirmed in my LCFC account, so no need to panic!

Just got in with no queue, 16k still available including some in first row of top tier.

I’m taking my 2 kids and one of their friends.  He’s 15 and usually goes with his Dad, but Dad can’t make it, so he gave me his log-in details to buy his son a ticket next to us.  We’ve got 4 seats together.  

But as I suspected, the system wouldn’t allow me to buy a single ticket for a 15 year old, so I had to buy it in his Dad’s name.  So now I’ve got an adult ticket for Dave, and it’ll be used by a 15 year old called Joe!  I’m wondering whether to just wing it and hope for the best, or speak to the club beforehand and try and sort it out (assuming anyone at the club has any idea what to do!).

just speak to the club, I did the same thing for an away game and they just fixed it for me. I reckon email them and tell them the story and they will fix it.

Thank you, I think I’ll do that.  The lad is a STH himself so it’s not like we’ve broken any rules, and the website actually says under 14s must be accompanied by an adult, suggesting 15 year olds don’t.  But clearly the LCFC ticket system wasn’t modified for that rule.  I don’t mind paying the adult price, just don’t want to get turned away on the day.

yeah, if the kid is a STH anyway then you will be absolutely fine I reckon they will just change the ticket over to the correct name

Of course, as soon as I wrote my post, the email with tickets attached arrived immediately after 

took over an hour to arrive though

Well got 2 tickets. Hopefully it will be OK for my 5 year old son to use my dad's adult ticket. Fingers crossed. 

[dannythefox]

Got two but need 3 one for my lad who’s 8 he’s a member but can’t get one on Friday due to an adult not being allowed to book a kids ticket. So has to wait till general sale, pointless in being a member there just taking your money, shite system.

10k gone? Trying to work out if that's good or not, as waiting for members

I have a sort of similar situation and I’m going to call the club tomorrow (when the madness has settled) to try and sort it.  I don’t want to risk getting turned away on the day.

Wait what? I was hoping to book on Saturday for me and my 2 boys, who are members. You saying that's not possible?

[King of Gipsy Lane]

If I can’t make it can I pass them along to someone ?

I can’t book my lad through my account when it goes to members, because all it says it I’m too old to buy the ticket. So we need to hope it goes to general sale so I can get him one Monday. Already spoke to the club and that’s the only option.

Ok, I think I had this problem with buying the memberships and assigning them to the kids. I played around with it and it worked.

Even if it does go to general sale you wont be able to. You need to phone the club and get your lad a supporters number, doesnt need to be a member or anything just needs a supports number. We have just had the exact same issue with the Villareal match and my mates son. The club did it straight away and then we could buy the tickets. 

[harpendenfox]

If my Maths is correct as of 3pm 14,961 tickets remain, so around 11,500 sold thus far

We can get him a ticket on Monday, he’s already a member. Why wouldn’t he be able to get one 🤷🏻‍♂️

Link his reference to your account and make sure you change the category of ticket in the drop down once in your basket. To match his age and use his reference. That will be fine.

I've ordered my lads today.
