Danny the Fox 95 Posted 15 February 2013 Posted 15 February 2013 Can you send Cardiff tickets and travel back to the club if you can't go because of the game being re-scheduled?
1964FOX Posted 15 February 2013 Posted 15 February 2013 Can you send Cardiff tickets and travel back to the club if you can't go because of the game being re-scheduled? Yes took my lads back on Monday as he can't go now because of school the nex day.

CosbehFox Posted 15 February 2013 Posted 15 February 2013 anyone now planning on going to this that wasn't previously? I wouldn't dream of funding the Red Franchise personally
Dan Posted 15 February 2013 Posted 15 February 2013 Yes took my lads back on Monday as he can't go now because of school the nex day. Is it not in the Easter holidays?
1964FOX Posted 15 February 2013 Posted 15 February 2013 Is it not in the Easter holidays? No it's a school week.
thurnbyfox Posted 21 February 2013 Posted 21 February 2013 Now moved to Tuesday 12th March according to the fixture list on the Football League website!!?? Can't see any official announcement anywhere though.
Dan Posted 21 February 2013 Posted 21 February 2013 This is laughable it doesn't make a huge difference to me but where is the consideration for fans who are staying over? etc.. I don't get how they didn't just make this the date from the start? Tell you what I find seriously bizarre. The fact they've moved this on the grounds of "fixture backlog", even though it means we'll be playing FIVE straight Tuesday's now, how does that make any sense?
EastNeukFox Posted 21 February 2013 Posted 21 February 2013 Aye, me and GoddyFox will be heading down from Scotland for this one, as its now in the Easter holidays. Trains and Premier Inn both booked, and match tickets arrived on Saturday. My lad's at school in Cambs, and they're off the two weeks after the Easter weekend, so Cardiff game's now in second week of his hols. Feckin wank€rs! £133.45 pissed down the drain!!
Harry - LCFC Posted 21 February 2013 Posted 21 February 2013 I don't get how they didn't just make this the date from the start? It's to do with Barnsley progressing the FA Cup, Cardiff were meant to be playing them on the 9th March but Barnsley are now playing Man City on that date. I think the fixture congestion reason they've given is to do with us having to play 3 away games in a row if we played Cardiff on 9th April. Cardiff themselves have said they didn't want to play "6 home games in quick succession" in order to boost attendances. Feckin wank€rs! £133.45 pissed down the drain!! Is this on hotel fees? I find it pretty appalling when tickets are sold for a match and then the fixture is moved, selling a ticket sends out the message that the date has been set. Changing it after that just isn't right. To be honest I've heard a lot of people complain about losing money on hotel fees, sounds like a bit of a risk.

To be honest I've heard a lot of people complain about losing money on hotel fees, sounds like a bit of a risk. A mixture of train and hotel costs. I live in Fife, so am used to expense just to get to home games. I don't normally do away games, but after all the buggering about with this tie already I thought the April date was reasonable safe, as we were both out of the cup, and we had an endless stream of midweek dates over the next month. So I went ahead and booked to go down on the train, and got tickets for just over £30 quid each way, which is pretty reasonable from Scotland. However to get rates like that you have to get non refundable advance tickets. Same applies for the best rates at the likes of premier inn, so no refund likely there. So now I either waste 2 days off work, and go to Cardiff for one night and take the lad to see a movie or something, ....or lose the money, and put it down to experience!
The Year Of The Fox Posted 22 February 2013 Author Posted 22 February 2013 I'm not going to this now. I'll rather get my money back
Dan Posted 22 February 2013 Posted 22 February 2013 They should've moved the Barnsley/Cardiff game to March 12th then. It's poor that they don't plan these things, they fail to consider the consequences and moving these games isn't a small deal either - just look at that bloke above who's now lost over £100 because of their shit planning, and I know 1964FOX has already had to re-book the hotel once and now he's got to again. It's just inconvenience down to nothing other than shite planning.
Asha Posted 26 February 2013 Posted 26 February 2013 Just bagged a ticket for this - 14 quid for u21 is pretty good for such a big game. First away game since Reading last season, and haven't seen us win away since Hull on NYD 2011 so hopefully we put a strong performance in.
Langley Posted 26 February 2013 Posted 26 February 2013 Driving there after work. Only about an hour from me.
Dan Posted 3 March 2013 Posted 3 March 2013 Need to sort mine out. A guess for this... I reckon we'll have more than we did at Ipswich.
FuriousFox46 Posted 3 March 2013 Posted 3 March 2013 Need to sort mine out. A guess for this... I reckon we'll have more than we did at Ipswich. Really? I was going to guess about 900
Dan Posted 3 March 2013 Posted 3 March 2013 Maybe it's just people I know but this seems to be far more popular than Ipswich away. You might be right.
deejdeej Posted 5 March 2013 Posted 5 March 2013 Going to this with 2 mates, cant say im massively confident but lets see what leeds and sheff weds games bring! Also fancying a bit of a night out after, heard tuesdays are decent in cardiff..
