WhenYourSmilingLCFC Posted 18 April 2013 Share Posted 18 April 2013 I haven't read through the 3 pages, but just had one of them weekly emails from LCFC saying no Forest tickets will be sold online. You'll have to ring or go pick them up. Seems strange really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davieG Posted 18 April 2013 Share Posted 18 April 2013 Forest Tickets: Important Information With tickets for City’s trip to Nottingham Forest set to go on sale next week, the Club would like to announce the following details. Due to the limited allocation provided by Forest and to ensure that the sales process goes as smoothly as possible, tickets for the game will NOT be available to buy online.

1964FOX Posted 18 April 2013 Share Posted 18 April 2013 Let's just say some people on here shot themselves in the foot. Do you think so or is this the first time it's really mattered so consequently things have been put in place to ensure fair practice as all other games have reached priority 3 and beyond.

Leicester Lass Posted 18 April 2013 Share Posted 18 April 2013 Do you think so or is this the first time it's really mattered so consequently things have been put in place to ensure fair practice as all other games have reached priority 3 and beyond. It was mentioned specifically in the FCC meeting last night. The club read these boards frequently, and were obviously aware that people were planning to exploit the loophole, and in my opinion have made the correct decision in ensuring that first priority goes to the people who have actually earnt it. They are discussing the possibility of having a beamback of the Forest game, although it's only an idea so I advise people to not get their hopes up yet.

kyleolly Posted 18 April 2013 Share Posted 18 April 2013 Will there be a live beam back at the KP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bert Posted 18 April 2013 Share Posted 18 April 2013 i think there is around 1600 P1 and P2, and surely at least 1400 will go? as they are the most hardcore, and its a trip down the road to our main rivals and the game could be a decider if we make the play-offs. May be wrong? There's nowhere near that many p1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiggers the Fox Posted 18 April 2013 Share Posted 18 April 2013 There's nowhere near that many p1. I think he means 1600 combined P1 & 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alf Bentley Posted 18 April 2013 Share Posted 18 April 2013 There's nowhere near that many p1. Anyone have an accurate idea of how many P1 & P2 there are, so as to guesstimate how many tickets might be left for P3 on Wednesday? Surprising LCFC Direct can't set up their computer systems to distinguish between the different categories for online sales (a very simple bit of programming, you'd have thought). But if they can't, this does seem fairer....looks like an early rise on Wednesday morning for a bit of queuing, then.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Fox Posted 18 April 2013 Share Posted 18 April 2013 So 722 tickets available on the Wednesday then for Priority 3 thats assuming that all P1 and P2 take up their away tickets? Am I right in saying one away ticket per season ticket holder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Father Ted Posted 18 April 2013 Share Posted 18 April 2013 When we played Cardiff in the play offs am I right in saying that we were only allocated 2000 and about 100 tickets made it to P3? So by that perhaps roughly 1900 P1+P2? Although, do players and officials get tickets too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So by that perhaps roughly 1900 P1+P2? Although, do players and officials get tickets too? It went beyond P3 mate. There were about 200 left after the P3 day, me and a mate heard about them possibly selling them in person on general sale on the Saturday, so queued up from 3am that morning. We were ecstatic. The next day before the home leg, my mate nipped in to the TO and picked up another 3 All that queueing for nowt. Indeed I know of one lad who went in and got a couple on the morning of the away leg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why can't they just check peoples priority when they buy tickets online! Good work Happy Fox you clown! If your gonna blame him blame me too mate i raised the questions, in all honesty the P1 and P2's should 100% get first priority, i know i said i would be tempted to get one online when they first become available but thinking about it i would be the first to complain if some P3 got the last ticket and i missed out having gone to every game this season. Wouldn't want to be a mug to a fellow LCFC supporter who was attending games before i was even alive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fleckneymike Posted 18 April 2013 Share Posted 18 April 2013 I'm one of the P1's and I can neither phone from work nor get to the ticket office due to my job. Relied on LCFC direct to get tickets.
