And if the tickets all sold out in 15 minutes then clearly they were able to process a large number of transactions in a short space of time. You were just unlucky. If they had 500 phones in a call centre it wouldn’t change the fact that demand outstripped supply and you could still have missed out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many tickets did they have for the family area anyway, I doubt it was hundreds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TV Tom Posted February 5, 2018 Report Share Posted February 5, 2018 My son is in uni and is in digs over there and It won’t be a problem for him getting tickets for for this one, anyone know what is the best home stand for away fans at CCFC?

Dolman Block B Posted February 5, 2018 Report Share Posted February 5, 2018 Complete and utter bollocks that we have been sold down the river for this game. South Wales Police can easily contain 3500 Bristol City fans within the stadium, and on route and back from the game. Cardiff were in the Premiership not long back and would have had full allocations from away fans from almost every Premier club. Warnock will laughing in his gravy.

weepywall Posted February 5, 2018 Report Share Posted February 5, 2018 Was it only 1400 tickets ? Thought they had to give 10% of ground capacity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woolford's Hairband Posted February 5, 2018 Report Share Posted February 5, 2018 I think the club will try and get more it was already stated they were taking it further, if they have any luck with it will be another matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You must have missed this: https://www.bcfc.co.uk/news/city-receive-limited-cardiff-allocation/ The rules state 2,000 tickets or 10%, (whichever's higher), but not on this occasion.

foghornred Posted February 5, 2018 Report Share Posted February 5, 2018 Bugger sold out, for those of us that work and can't get online until finished at 1730 we have no hope. In the days of Beryl Fudge she would keep some for her regulars but now its just a business who see the fans just as customers . Some blame has to go to Cardiff for the allocation which is far less than we allow them when they come to the gate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy082005 Posted February 5, 2018 Report Share Posted February 5, 2018 Ive never been arrested at football. Never been arrested full stop. I have been a season ticket holder for 23 years... But thanks to the South Wales constabulary...I wont get a ticket for this game. In no other walk of life do the majority get punished for the tiny minority ******* disgrace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
