Don't tell the Forum police on OTIB though jeeess

2000 Leeds
1641 Norwich

Always looks odd when it's a 'round' number but as valid a number as any other I suppose.

That’s the way I look at it. It’s seems convenient, but as you say, why not.

3800/4500 for Wigan next Saturday. Surprisingly won’t make general sale again.

 

[Depthcharge]

Stoke given Leeds 3,000 for the 19th.

 

[tiltontrev]

5200 for West Ham sold out before it even got to season tickets, never managed to get one

Two tickets have just fell into my lap absolutely chuffed, not really for me, I prefer the old school shit & sawdust grounds, but my lad who's followed Blues to some right hovels and never really seen us at any of the more modern ‘super stadia’ finally gets to go to one of the grounds he sees on MOTD etc.

Should be a great day out.

St Andrew's isn't that bad pal.

 

[Derby1971]

Derby sold about 1100, so far for Leeds away on Friday the 11th of January. Was given 1483, allocation, so will hopefully take 1400, not to bad at the price and also live on sky, I will deffo be watching in the pub.

 

[villa loyal]

Wigan now sold out(4500). I’m sure they allocate 4700, so maybe some more available.

 

[SMH]

That’ll be our 5th or 6th 4k plus away following to us already this season. God help us if we get relegated, away fans must be propping us right up financially.

Should be another from us too, hopefully. Unless you charge more than you did last time.

Poor
BLackburn brought more with dearer tickets, live on sky, and no transport.

Red button he probably means .

Ahh reyt no one even knew about that though until the day before, and now you can't watch it in pubs it won't make a huge difference I don't think.

 

[villa loyal]

Not heard off smiley for a bit, telling us Leeds sold out in 8.5 seconds .

Stoke sold out 3,000 straight away with it being a free for all for all STHs. Lots of unhappy people that it didn’t go on any loyalty.
Luck of the draw of getting in to the system at 10:00am on the day.

I kind of agree with your system due to the amount of fans you have, man Utd do a similar thing where they get applicants and it's just a ballot, same at rangers, when a team has so many fans it's only fair everyone has a chance to at least get on the ladder, for clubs like us our system is correct, we hardly sell out so when the more appealing games come up our loyalist fans are guaranteed tickets. You do that for some games but it's only fair you give all a chance to get tickets for some too or it's just the exact same 2k/3k buying every game.

It’s has got a bit like that. 800 away season ticket holders. Any allocation under 2600 has been loyalty in some way.
I know people who buy regardless of whether they are going or not. Tickets easily moved on. I’ve done 1 away in my name this season, 3 on other people’s tickets. My pre season trips in my name to forest green and oxford count for fuck all.
Fingers on refresh at 10:30 (not 10:00) - as a member going for 20% of the allocation minus 800.

Expecting decent numbers from Swansea, always rated their away support.

 

[blademan89]

Fuck me £35 at Norwich ffs

 

[LancashireTrotters]

Expecting decent numbers from Swansea, always rated their away support.

They brought 700 to our place earlier in the season. Their board subside tickets for away games to £20 for adults and £15/£10 concessions.

 

[villa loyal]

SoutheySWFC did you get a figure from Norwich for our following there? Was 995 from WMP, but they get it wrong so many times, although it sometimes accurate.

 

[SoutheySWFC]

Not asked them yet

 

[JJH]

Not asked them yet

Are you just keeping numbers for your own reference/interest or are you sharing them somewhere I’m missing?

 

[SoutheySWFC]

Neither at present.

Not a brilliant following I admit, but a Friday night just after Christmas, on sky for all to watch is deffo not poor, and Friday night traffic down the M1 is the biggest pain in the arse there is.

 

[SoutheySWFC]

If 900 Bristol to yours 3 days before Xmas whilst mid table is poor then 1,100 60 odd miles up the road whilst 6th is poor.

No 4k allocation at Reading because of this lot
