Ashton Yate Posted February 1, 2023 Report Share Posted February 1, 2023 3 minutes ago, RedM said: I guess the club got to add ST holders and members together and get the total and assume everyone wants one. Obviously not all ST holders will take their ticket, but you have to believe they will as probably be passed to family or friends. Whether that total will then allow Bears ST holders to take from the pot I don;t know. But if they do, and they did previously didn't they, then surely there would be none for general sale. Surely it would be fairer to go to general sale after ST and then members. But to be honest I doubt after the club have satisfied the first two groups if they care who buys the remaining tickets as long as they are sold, and they will be. Its all £££'s It will be exactly that. ST holders, then members, then general sale. Hence why the club have been promoting the membership ever since the draw was made, trying to get people to sign up for a membership to make an extra £20! There will be around 22k seats available to City fans, so assuming they only let ST holders and members buy 1 ticket each, then there will likely be at least 5k available for general sale. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it will be to be honest. The best chance of getting a ticket would be to sign up for a membership. Most supporters who attend regular matches (home and away) will likely be a member anyway, as it pays for itself after attending a couple of games, so they are already rewarding those that support the team regularly.

I don't think there will be anywhere near as many Bears members as City ones, and the ones that are probably won't have much interest in football and not want to go anyway. Anyone can buy a membership, and if anyone plans to attend a few matches a season and would like the priority access for big games then it is a no-brainer to have one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the past when we have reached the EFL cup finals season ticket holders have been able to purchase two tickets, but then Wembley stadium is a bit bigger than Ashton gate, maybe that's why the confusion has arisen.

I said that as soon as the draw was made. Surely people will realise by the ticket price. The men's pricing is going to be top £££ and the ladies (or women's game whatever they like to be known as) will probably be on par with our Lincoln type pricing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W-S-M Seagull Posted February 2, 2023 Report Share Posted February 2, 2023 What I don't like is that if we were drawn away to them then VAR would be used however because we are at home it won't be. However if we do make the quarters and have a home game then VAR will be installed at AG for that game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember the days of sudden boosts in crowds to watch a mid table nothing game against Portsmouth or someone. It was an acceptable way of the club making a few quid, by dishing out tokens that looked like Green Shield stamps. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cidered abroad Posted February 2, 2023 Report Share Posted February 2, 2023 (edited) Oh the problems that many are noting about getting tickets. However on purchases with ST, Membership, or general public, it will all be done in the comfort of one's own home. You should try queueing in freezing cold and rain or snow for two to four hours in the evening, in the streets around Ashton Gate, like we had to in the good old/bad old days. Two buses from and to Filton where I lived and even the possibility that last bus from Centre to Filton was full up and that meant a walk home! And an early rising next morning to get last night's homework done! Edited February 2, 2023 by cidered abroad 11 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
