I'll be the lad in the blue plimmies :), was there from half 2, definately worth it, couldn't have faced watching this on the TV.

Just got back home in Silverstone from a night of queing! All worth it though can't wait for the two games now.

Thats me on the floor in the dark blue coat next to the guy with the white hoodie on!

I take it the last 250 have all gone now? I'd hate to think that those guys above waited around from 2.30am only to find that they could have just rolled up now and still got one.

Great effort though by that lot, must admit I'm finally seeing the practical benefits of being P2!

It would seem it goes from A-Z then AA-JJ so row Z so should be 16 rows above half-way, 10 rows from the back (if my Maths is correct, which it probably isn't).

Seeing you lot queueing reminds of the old days at Filbo, particularly an F A Cup tie at Rotherham, I turned up at 10.00pm to queue and the tickets went on sale the following day at 10.00am. When I arrived at 10.00pm there must have been at least 500 in the queue then. Great night was had by all particularly as we bulit a big bonfire and we all gathered round to keep warm. Till the cops turned up and extinguished it. GREAT DAYS EH. But too old to do it know.

Got a few tickets for sale for Cardiff Away on Wednesday...



For fans who were unlucky enough to not have been able to get one.

Let me know if your interested?

Can we ban him? Looks like a tout to me taking advantage.

I was about fourth along in that photo, green sleeping bag and a bright red waterproof thing on top of it. Nice to chat with a few folks overnight, and a big laugh with Jobber, who'd already got his ticket but turned up about 4am with some mates who were queueing for theirs. Top man!

I believe there are still a handful left at the ticket office, but I'm pleased to have mine, and coach tickets, safely at home.

Like I said above, if anyone wants my car parking pass just PM me.

Thanks a lot for the seat mate, made it a lot better. :)

It looks like there's still tickets for the away leg left, despite some people queuing all night!

Got my tickets Friday, it seems weird that we're not selling out home or away? Is it lack of interest or the clubs system for getting tickets and seeming to have put people off with the poor web and phone sales?? or am I just being a pessimist and we will rock the walkers and cardiff??

I swear you didn't pull up until about 7.15, and then got out of your car and started queuing at about 8. :dunno:

I was there at 6, my dad got out of the car started queing then I joined him at around 8ish yeh.. Glad we've got tickets tho.

COYB!

I am the one in the blue sleeping bag, freezing cold.

The lad in the tent/pod outside the door was there at 5pm last night along with his brother. and the two fella's on the right of me as you look at the pic turned up between 7 and 8pm last night.

Cold night but worth the wait.

Thanks for the chair mate "leftsideoverhere?" (godsend) and to the "early birds" who made the 14 hour wait bearable :thumbup:

Did anyone actually sleep inside the tent?

Two lads mate, they had a spell inside their van but probably did the best part of 6 hours in that tent/pod, one of the lads was refused a ticket at 5pm last night by the ticket office and told to wait, so he did, cracking effort, he had been there 2 and a half hours before I arrived!

Fvcking hell, fair play to them for doing it but I had had enough and i was only there from half two makes me sounds small time in comparison :/

Yeah I am sure we all thought at some point "fvck this!" my moment came around 11.30 but then found out the holiday inn was serving coffee (well we had to make it ourselves and it was luke warm). Bit of footy, bit of banter and a few laughs with the folks leaving some functions at the club.

I did retreat to the car for half hour at 2pm for a blast of heat, t-shirt, jumper, coat and sleeping bag were failing badly at 2am, started the engine and all of the lights around the walkers switched off, moments later a fox appeared and walked right in front of the tent and chairs and strolled down over the car park as cool as you like.

Holiday Inn were getting brassed off at the constant use of their pissers (4 times for me), so much so the toilets not for public use sign went up!

The time when I felt most like giving in was between about 4 and 5, up until then the time had passed unexpectedly fast, from then on afterwards it dragged increasingly longer every hour. Jobber turning up at 5 and erecting that marquee was quite funny to watch. I'd do it all again tomorrow if I needed ti though.

Glad you thawed out OK, mate. :thumbup:

Good effort from all the overnighters. I reckon we all deserve extra beer at Cardiff. See you there...

What an utter shambles by the club. First they put out a notice saying that it is unlikely that away tickets will reach P3 and then when they do, you have to appear in person to buy them. What about all the season ticket holders that don't live in Leicester and are unable to get to the ticket office at 9am tomorrow?
