Semi-final : Will buying tickets be a nightmare ? (1 Viewer)

Alan Dugdales Moustache · Jan 26, 2017

Fantastic home draw, and hopefully a decent crowd but already I'm thinking how on earth will the club deal with the likelihood of a crowd in excess of 15,000, Who gets priority, where do we buy tickets from if people don't want or can't buy them online .
Are we going to queue for 6 hours to one lady on a computer that has dial-up 1990's internet connection speed.
.....or can we pay on the gate !!!!!!!!

Be no pay on the gate I would say. Could be a nightmare with an already big crowd as a certainty.

richnrg · Jan 26, 2017

perhaps a boycott will be easier

BigadamL · Jan 26, 2017

Do when know when they will be on sale?

Otis · Jan 26, 2017

Everyone will say they are boycotting and then secretly buy a ticket.

Will it be shown live and exclusive on sky sports ?

ceetee · Jan 26, 2017

Is that a dig?

I'm sure we ALL went to the earlier games didn't we!

Has been every other year.

Alan Dugdales Moustache · Jan 26, 2017

...I'm guessing the only outlets other than the internet will be the BPA or the Sky Blue Shop at the arena park.
If season ticket holders get first dibbs, it'll only be a five hour queue. That is if that's not too complicated to arrange. It might be.

no it hasnt

none of our games vs crewe were on sky iirc

sky show 1 of the semis when it was 2 leg.
if they split up days we play then maybe they will air both this time

slyblue57 · Jan 26, 2017

Definitely will be. Only games on the Tuesday and Wednesday are Champions League games and Sky don't have them anymore do they.

It will take their printer 5 minutes to print each ticket as well.........

if it's been on every other year, then perhaps this a year that it's skipped. Like when it's an odd number.

It depends on whether or not SISU own the woods and which sections of the woods they have chosen to allow shitting in. And on which days.

All of them apart from the Chicago ones who have very posh houses with 5 or 6 bathrooms each.

Nick · Jan 26, 2017

Just do print at home online!

pusbccfc · Jan 26, 2017

It shouldn't be difficult getting tickets but it should still sell out.

matesx · Jan 26, 2017

i cant see a sell out, 20k would be my guess

People said that for both Crewe and the Gillingham games.

My phone has been buzzing all morning with people asking me to get tickets. Most of them lapsed or very casual city fans. No issue with that, they've needed a reason to get excited and now they have one. Bring it on. Only a tinpot trophy? Who cares. The club needs it.

Would be very surprised if it isn't a sell-out or close to it. Unless they do something silly and put the price up to £20.

rupert_bear · Jan 26, 2017

It will be a similar gate to the Crewe semi I'm sure over 30000, hopefully a different result though

no_loyalty · Jan 26, 2017

The father-in-law has just text me and asked me to get him a ticket, his last match was Crewe at home in the JPT area final, some people never learn

Lets break our old record for the highest football league trophy attendance, other than the final

chiefdave · Jan 26, 2017

Ticketmaster should be able to cope with demand, its not like before where it was an old PC in the city office.

The problem will be if everyone decides to turn up at the ticket office.

Alan Dugdales Moustache · Jan 26, 2017

Where will the ticket office be ? Surely they can't have a snake of people around the shelves, shirts and calendars in our magnificent shop. It's not set up for a queue of 5 let alone a queue of 500.

steve82 · Jan 26, 2017

It has to be nothing less than 30k surly... same as Crewe.
we're 90 mins away from a memorable trip to Wembley, support your club. The income from ticket sales is split so no need to bring politics into one night for 90 mins, it's also not a u23 game... no excuses really.
I'm sure should we win there will be easily 40k wanting tickets for Wembley.

Adge · Jan 26, 2017

I not sure about the gate. Everyone, including myself are expecting a big crowd, but Sisu have alienated that many people over time that they may not return even for a one off game. Not sure the feeling was like this at the time of the Crewe game in the same competition. 20,000 would be a decent turn out.

Nor me

Sterling Archer · Jan 26, 2017

Just to clarify does this game come under NOPM?

Or because we're playing Wycombe, where Wasps came from, it acts as a double negative meaning I'm allowed to go to this game?

Can we have a new protest group to confirm please? Cheers.
