cjslcfc Posted 25 January 2014 Share Posted 25 January 2014 I assume the club didn't want to buy the next allocation of tickets as they feel they wouldn't have time to sell them all. Reckon they would be snapped up straight away personally! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CosbehFox Posted 25 January 2014 Share Posted 25 January 2014 City made the error by doing general sale so short and therefore they never knew the level of demand. If they had two weeks of general sale, more opportunity to ask for more. LCFC find selling away tickets a chore basically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unabomber Posted 25 January 2014 Share Posted 25 January 2014 I'm so sad that I didn't get a ticket for this I feel like crying. Will somebody please go the Post Office Vaults and have a Delirium Tremens for me as that was up there with the best beers in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foxes1 Posted 26 January 2014 Share Posted 26 January 2014 Derby have been given an initial allocation of 2800 according to their website, yet we get given a full allocation of 2500 what the f**k is going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuartn27 Posted 26 January 2014 Share Posted 26 January 2014 Derby 2800? They have shit away support.. We could still shift 750-1000 if LCFC got this mess sorted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC Prussian Posted 26 January 2014 Share Posted 26 January 2014 Again, what a terrific away support. Wish they'd extend the allocation seeing the demand. Now let's get that eighth win in a row... Sadly, I can't make it for a weekday game, but I hope everybody who's going will be witnessing a new club record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could still shift 750-1000 if LCFC got this mess sorted i dont think its so much LCFC fault and all that, Birmingham have given us an allocation we've sold them, and given how close it is to the game LCFC probably dont feel could shift enough to warrant asking for anymore.(doubt they'd get there until Tuesday/Wednesday given how Royal Mail can be). on Derby getting 2800, there game is on a Saturday. so its no point comparing our support with theres as we dont have a giant flag to cover a good chunk of seast too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrankieADZ Posted 26 January 2014 Share Posted 26 January 2014 That's because LCFC leave it until the last minute to put them on general sale. Personally cant imagine LCFC selling 1000 tickets for a midweek game when there on general sale. most ppl who want to go would have already got them who want to go. If it was a Saturday game, thats a different matter. also imo cant put loads of blame on the club leaving it to the last min, given its on a Tuesday makes it a bit more difficult to sell them...as sending is risky; also looking at it, they've been on general sale since the 26th Jan...imo...thats more than enough time for people to get a ticket if they really wanted one. rather than waiting to see what yesterday's result would be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilo Posted 26 January 2014 Share Posted 26 January 2014 I would in no way be surprised if there's an external body limiting our allocation on the basis that there is only one train home after the game. SGSA or some other pointless group. The 22.22 is going to be utter carnage. Usually a two (maximum three) carriage deal so I wouldn't be expecting a seat. Beers will be essential to get me through that impending horror show - could be worse than the rattlers that go Peterborough. 2009 was the nadir. Seem to remember some dopey bint allowing her kid to sit on the emergency button on the football special, delayed us for half an hour. We were then called animals by an old woman at Peterborough and stopped from going to certain pubs. Then we promptly lost 2-0 in a hailstorm. Amazing anybody bothered again really.

Jfox Posted 26 January 2014 Share Posted 26 January 2014 This is nothing to do with LCFC, we were only given 2500 tickets by Birmingham, we sold them, we were given no more. LCFC would have asked for more but didn't get any, even if they gave us an extra 1000 and we sold 12, we could just send the unsold ones back, so the timing of general sale has nothing to do with this.

Head Honcho Posted 26 January 2014 Share Posted 26 January 2014 Pretty good chance there'll be pay on the gate here. Birmingham fans can pay on the gate so I doubt they'll risk city fans doing the same in their end. This looks like my only option and I doubt I'm alone.

BrummieFOX Posted 26 January 2014 Share Posted 26 January 2014 Haven't they already said there'll be none on the gate for our end? They had a bit of trouble with Bradford a few weeks back in the cup. They kept turning up 10/15 mins into the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndWhat? Posted 26 January 2014 Share Posted 26 January 2014 Was gunna drive down after work and just pay on the gate. No idea why they would turn money away? 500 Leicester could easily have bought on the night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you actually know that or is it pure supposition? It certaintly doesn't make sense for Brum to turn down extra matchday revenue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
