It doesn't recognise England, United Kingdom or Great Britain when you type in their details. Had to put that out Norfolk postcode is in Scotland

 

Shambles of a club

Sounds about right 

[Craig]

Looks like they'll probably be giving us the other end behind the goal too as they've now greyed out those blocks on the plan too  

 

Edit - Well, whited out. That thing they do when blocks aren't open yet or sold out  

 

The home end is grey.

Bloody hell I originally thought that they were using the other end behind the goal and had sold it out as they have sold barely any even in their main stand

 

Basically going to be like a relocated home game

They're used to hosting them to be fair. 

 

I would imagine we'll have more there than Coventry ever did

Just looking at the Northampton website, and it looks as though they've sold barely a third of their main stand. Being generous, I'd estimate they've sold about 1500 so far. Wouldn't be surprised if they offer the third stand to us, as Leicester pounds are just as good as Northampton pounds, and definitely better than no pounds.

 

Just 30-odd tickets left behind the goal now.

Caved in ffs

Second allocation now all sold out. 

[Qwerty]

Now opening up a bit of the North stand!

[dnewty]

This is a great effort from our fans.

Another block has opened up in the North Stand.

According to the main page, it's another allocation of 944 - that's the whole of the North Stand. They'll open them up a block at a time. 

[Qwerty]

It would be good if the club sent an email out, as some people will have given up now, thinking it's sold out.  I can't see us selling many more otherwise.

It's a local friendly at £16 a ticket?

Thats almost half the grounds capacity of 7798

[Qwerty]

out of curiosity, who gets the money for the ticket sales for this?  Does it all go to Northampton or do Leicester get some of it?

Finally talked the lad into going to this. 

 

This could be the first mad Leicester on Tour trip of the season. 

 

It'd be great to see an emerging team come out of last years shite 

 

[goody2028]

Pretty impressive, this. Just shows what general sale can do as well.

I was thinking the same - we always traditionally had a large walk up on the day of the game both at home and away. 

 

Often we weren't going to an away game until a Friday night in the pub when plans would be made and we'd be off to somewhere like Oxford along with 3,000 or more on the day 

[TamworthFoxes]

So we will have behind both goals and all down the one side aswell.

Thats a cracking effort for a pre season friendly, tickets not that cheap either.

[foxfanazer]

Decided to make this one my 3 year old boys first game thinking it'd be a calm, nice little friendly. Now I'm expecting pyro and pitch invasions with 5 thousand of the blue army

A true baptism of fire for the boy - what a father you are my friend. My lad had to watch an insipid 1-1 against Colchester 

[Tomek]

Officially sold out. 3 of 4 stands are going to be packed with Leicester fans. I think they might have lost the home advantage 🤷‍♂️

Sold out with 2 weeks to go too. Surely they’ll be Leicester in the main stand too. Leicester here Leicester there Leicester every fuching everywhere la la la la la la la 

[adejo92]

I'm surprised we have been able to get so many.

 

Thought there would be more demand from Northampton fans to see a Premier lea...

 

Ah, yes, still getting used to it.
