Kid in the Riot Posted October 28, 2010 Report Share Posted October 28, 2010 Ticket office just told me...total of 700 sold for Leeds (500 today). Surely we should've sold out by now, call yourself fans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robins72 Posted October 28, 2010 Report Share Posted October 28, 2010 Ummm i doubt there are that many people who can A afford to go to Leeds and B have enough friends who have points to get tickets yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nogbad the Bad Posted October 28, 2010 Report Share Posted October 28, 2010 Ticket office just told me...total of 700 sold for Leeds (500 today). Surely we should've sold out by now, call yourself fans Last time we went to Yorkshire - Doncaster - we took 510 fans. 700 tickets already sold for Leeds sounds remarkably good in comparison.

Surely we should've sold out by now, call yourself fans This is one I really wanted to go to, I looked at train tickets on the national rail website and it was just over £100. I would love to go but how can I justify a day out for a minimum of £150. Plus 8 hours on a train for 2 hours football, while it wouldn't stop me if I could justify it financially isn't exactly a plus to whole affair.

Ummm A) that didn't seem to stop Swansea taking 4,000 to Wigan for a League Cup game on Tues and B) they are on sale to ALL season ticket holders. And C) I am only jesting really, 700 is a fairly decent number so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martyn Hocking Posted October 28, 2010 Report Share Posted October 28, 2010 that didn't seem to stop Swansea taking 4,000 to Wigan for a League Cup game on Tues Those 4,000 Swansea fans went to Wigan solely to shout 'judas' at Martinez. If Copout had just popped up as Leeds manager we would probably have a similar turnout! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lrrr Posted October 28, 2010 Report Share Posted October 28, 2010 would but being at Uni the cost of going to leeds isn't a help, but it's also my birthday that day and will therefore be visiting home that day.

Just dont go in The Peacock that is a serious Leeds pub, I was in there once when two Arsenal supporters came in, I'm sure if the lad they were with wasn't Leeds they would of been lynched. but the banter was funny. Also a group of lads came in with a crate of lager handed out the tins and started leading chants from the top of the pool table., brilliant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SR1 Posted October 30, 2010 Report Share Posted October 30, 2010 Hopefully a Leeds fan won't be as welcome as a fart in a spacesuit here I was Matty H's source on another thread about how many tickets you could get for this game. Your O/S says 2000, but because of the way the ground is set out if you take more than the 'wedge' (SE Corner) ie 1700 then the remainder will be in the South Stand behind the goal. As that stand only splits in two (segregation wise inside) essentially it means you can have upto 2,800. The South Stand is fine to sit in, and I think the facilities are much what you would expect. The Wedge, however, is different. I don't know about the leg room but it wouldn't surprise me if it was crap. That said while there are numerous restricted view seats the unrestricted view is fine in the upper tier (sorry the image is so small). The facilities are basic at best I'm afraid. View from SE Upper This is the corner (found it on the Northampton site!) Wedge As for the poster who said 'thick end of £30' I think you're being charged £24, which I'd prefer to think of as the 'thin end of £20' I'm sure the ground might have been modernised if a certain chairman hadn't pissed all the money away on players like Seth Johnson .

SR1 Posted November 1, 2010 Report Share Posted November 1, 2010 Just in case anyone's remotely interested this is a pretty good view of the wedge (in the distance) and the South Stand which you'll get the far end of if you sell more than 1700. http://www.wafll.com/wafll-gallery/wafll_-_united_fans/a_packed_south-1457-thread.html Our pre-sales are looking quite good for this one - our first Saturday home game for seven weeks. Hoping for 25,000+. Should be a cracker . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
