Sadly, looking at the on-line tickets, there are very few sold for Saturday, strangely block 11 is showing as blue but no tickets can be purchased, bit worrying as my PSL and kids ST's are in block 11.

Q1: Why is block 11 not on sale ??
Q2: If everybody enjoyed last Friday night (to me poss best night at Ricoh) why is nobody buying tickets???

Come on guys we wanted them home, their back, so we need to get back up there and support them.

Only 600 sold on top of STs for this game. That will increase though to something in the region of 13K-14K I imagine, which will be decent.

Same here. Not too worried about slow sales - they will take off from today onwards I would imagine.

It would be kind of bad if gates plunged quite so quickly. Surely, surely we can get 16k+? I know our owners are hard to love(!) and I know the price isn't wonderfully enticing...

Still think their biggest mistake was not getting as many as possible of us signed up to season tickets before we had time to stop and think about what we were doing!

Agree with that NW. Should have given ST's longer before going on general sale. Will anything under 16k will be disappointing I suspect (and hope I'm wrong) it will be c12-13k.

I do find the ticket prices to be high , im a ST holder but feel for anybody paying 24 and 27 pound on the day , in my opinion the club should do packages throughout but still maintaining loyalty to the ST holders , with the preston game at the end pf the month maybe offer yeovil tickets with 10 pound off the preston game with the stubb.
the club should really have to look at ways of getting bums on seats , as lets face it , nobody wants to go back to 9-10 k of 12/13

I imagine there must be a reason why we cant do this, which someone will be quick to point out but why cant we have people standing outside the ground on full time, selling tickets to people as they are leaving. Especially after a win when you are carried away enough to make an emotional impulse purchase.

I said this about people in town the morning of a game. I guess the biggest issue is you'd have to pre print the tickets and people couldn't choose where to sit.

I just let mine lick the bark off the pear tree in the garden and drink the rainwater that has collected in the gutter.

That's just on birthdays and Christmas of course. The rest of year it's just a case of going through next door's bins.

I agree


Here are the current prices.

I'd make it £20 in the standard zone and £22 in the premium with no rises on matchday, keep the family zone as £18 on matchday also. I also think the prices for concession/junior/JSB are high in the standard/premium zones.

I live in London and cannot afford to do every home game. Went on Friday night and will try to do 5 more this season. For me + 1 other it was a £150 day and that was with cheap tickets. Certainly not able to do that week in week out.

Cheers WM. I plan on going to 5 or 6 games this season. Theres a few City fans in Pompey - would be good to start up a Sky Blue Express from down South! I have family up in Leamington so most of the time I go to a match when we visit (with family in tow). I do travel up on my own occasionally so maybe we could keep each other posted??

As for general Yeovil discussion...I think a win could really kick us on this season. Lets have a good turn out! Any gate >15K also puts nails into Timmys 12.5k seater dream.

Just booked hotel and tickets for Yeovil. Severe lack of funds after 5 straight weeks going to games from Bournemouth, but it's only money. Right ?

he is a Rich, but a Yeovil fan

Used to support Man U, but got fed up of how far away football had gone from the working man, so started supporting Yeovil about 15 years ago I believe :claping hands:

I've decided I'm going to go, but only if it's quite nice weather (15C+) and it's not raining.
