Topper 123 Posted January 24, 2023 Report Share Posted January 24, 2023 I’d like city to give some sort of priority to fans that purchase ticket Saturday should we go through and get a plum draw next round , I know not everyone can attend all of the time but those who do should be rewarded with first dibs on next round 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swansea cup match was carnage at the ticket office, only 4 windows open , printers didn't work, hand written tickets. Lots missed kick-off. As Fred Pontin used to say "Book Early" Wasn't that down to an IT issue where tickets bought after a certain time weren't being emailed? I'm sure some said the same thing happened with the Lincoln tickets. Heaven help us if they manage to do this again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redkev Posted January 24, 2023 Report Share Posted January 24, 2023 TBF to the baggies they always bring good numbers down here and we do to there place ( I know it’s a easy trip for both parties . Think they get the better deal though much more varied choice of boozers and eating places down here . Not much choice up there gaff. never seem to be many problems with the baggie fans down here for the large numbers they bring , have known it to be a bit spikey up there mind , mainly due to our lot. I can remember the game all those years ago when it kicked off nearly all first half and through half time meaning the 2nd half being delayed . That must of been 20 years ago I reckon . was that the 2-2 game ? We played brilliantly that day but the ref just kept playing until they scored . Don’t think the game finished until about 5.15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe. Reality is that it'll be season ticket holders with the first shout, followed by members who pay for the priority. Agree however that those who have turned up for games should get a priority over those members who have paid a nominal amount on the off chance there is a game they want to attend.

That means so far 10,436 sold if WBA sell their full allocation. Might get 13/14k if we’re lucky. Now looks like around 15k sold including 3.5k away fans. With just under 6,000 home tickets still available. Would have hoped for around 18-19k would have felt like a decent effort. Thoughts on 16-16.5k attendance? Which is looking likely.
