Collection from Ashford International

Are you going to the Fulham home game? Just noticed you can pick them up until 7pm on that date.

if £25 is the negotiated price then i wonder how much they were trying to shaft us for

I can't go but that's an obscene price for that ground. Mad.

I just think that Forest with 1,000 more tickets (of which about 400 to 500 went to box holders) is a much bigger seller than Gillingham in a sh1t stand at 12:30 with a trek to get there.

 

I agree the bands need to be higher just in case (and I like that each band has only 2/3 hours rather than dragging it out) but I still think it will trickle down.

 

Ticket collection is also a pain for a lot of people so that need considering. I do think this might even drop another level under 490+.

Hope so, I fancy this and reasonably below 490

I think Stockport also got to fairly low levels (480+ or something) and that was only a 1,000 allocation.

Say one other thing, if you're bothered you could get some idea of the numbers of point holders in each group with these points levels and this approach, so you have a better idea for other games going forward!!

Without knowing the numbers in bands, we gotta do our best to compare to other away games of similar nature then weigh up other factors (day of week, fanbase mood, transport options etc.). Pretty difficult but with all that done, I think this could get to 460+. Like I say, lots of assumptions and best guessing.

Not a selfish point at all imo. I do get the strikes are causing chaos, but would expect the club to have offered collection at Gillingham for example.

They wont ever do that because it would reveal a realistic number of how many go ‘elsewhere’

Rang the club and they said they would sort once I have ordered so I think it will be fine for collection at Gillingham (Y)

I have no idea why they HAVE to sell them all tomorrow when you can't pick them up until 29th December anyway, and there is over a week after then until the game  

You know who to ask Craig

Agree, I live in the county and don't come in much, means I'll have to leave the pub early against Fulham!!!

[Guest David Oldfields Gate]

I'm getting Conference league omnishambles flashbacks.

[Leicester_Loyal]

Surely this makes it further down than 490 given the KO time and the rail strikes. 

[Stuntman_Mike]

Doesn't make sense they're not sorting collections for Boxing Day at home.

 

Harsh on those that can't attend Fulham or live far away.

Just did a quick add up and we've sold 718 and there's 1,184 left.

Is anyone able to post the link to see how many tickets have been sold please?

Not much point.  

 

I think the club have closed the "loophole" whereby you could see how many tickets have been sold.  They've changed the system twice by the looks of it, in the last few weeks.  A couple of weeks ago, you could at least view ticket details (above your priority), but you had to be signed on.   Now, they seem to have closed that down as well.   B'stards!

Yeah I could get in for Liverpool & MK Dons but not this.

The thing is, what harm is it doing, all it does is tell you whether there is any effort in getting up or making an effort at 8am etc, also where you might want to stand when you are on the cusp.

Bit small minded really, it is not particularly affecting them in any way.

Exactly, my thoughts.

 

I mean ... why let fans have access to some harmless but useful piece of information, when you can keep them in the dark?

 

I'm not a serial knocker of our club and ticket office, but there are times when i wonder WTF ...

[Strawberry_Jam]

so this is on the bbc then? https://www.lcfc.com/news/2990505/emirates-fa-cup-gillingham-ticket-details-confirmed the club seems to think so but it wasn't on the list when the tv picks were announced?
