bcfc01 Posted January 31 Report Share Posted January 31 So an all Championship tie (because its Leeds) and an all EPL tie. I suppose its predictable, but still disappointing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wokingham Red Posted January 31 Report Share Posted January 31 4 minutes ago, View from the Dolman said: Confirmed: NOT on TV. Will hopefully result in an influx in ticket sales today. Would be surprised if we completely sold out, but should be taking in excess of 2k for this. Could potentially be our last important game of the season.

North London Red Posted January 31 Report Share Posted January 31 Last posting day was yesterday. From today it’s collection only, which is a pain as an exile who can’t make the Leeds match on Friday. Couldn’t the club have extended the postal deadline by a couple of days? 8 days before the game seems a bit extreme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max allocation will be 2800 but I'm not sure what the initial allocation was - 2100 ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northern Red Posted January 31 Report Share Posted January 31 Shocked they've picked Leeds.... Replays aren't as widely televised around the world so there may not be so many streaming options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1960maaan Posted January 31 Report Share Posted January 31 OS says; We have received a full allocation of 2,893 tickets. and then .... so just over 2,400 sold with general sale starting at 2pm. Decent effort. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decent effort. 800 were kept back to be put on sale if the first batch of 2100 sold out, that’s my understanding anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw someone said that but would make no sense at all with only 2800 anyway , I think if people are buying should take at face value that there is only 475 left 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree it sounds strange but I thought it was to avoid the club having to pay for all those tickets if they go unsold. I don’t know? Either way I still think 1500 sold so far is pretty decent.

If so that would be excellent support from us IF we are taking 2k+ up to Nottingham on a Wednesday night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Club and Country Posted January 31 Report Share Posted January 31 If we take over 2k that's fantastic most have been before, week night, chances are we will lose, and the games have been relentless recently, the cup games effectively adding 4 games on to the schedule I was actually surprised how many went to Coventry last night fair play Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Social media and piss taking never care for context though Given how many games we've had recently people have to make a choice. I chose Forest over Cov (even though I've been City Ground but not been Cov's ground) I've chosen Southampton over Leeds, but even that's up in the air at the moment as I'll also want to go if we beat Forest. Been an expensive year already following City! 400 tickets currently left for Forest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never been to Forest, it's only just over an hour's drive for me, and I try to get to the games I can get to. I went last night as well for similar reasons. When you live 3hrs from Bristol and can't get to every game then you learn not to pick the glamour games, you just pick games that work! (Technically the cup games have added 3 games to the schedule as we will always play the first 3rd round FA Cup game).

Seems like 2100 may be right with the prospect of another 800 if they sell could be right; Visiting supporters are housed on one side of the lower tier of the Bridgford Stand (towards the Brian Clough Stand), where around 2,000 fans can be accommodated. The facilities and view of the action in this stand are good. If demand requires it then an additional 1,000 away supporters can be seated in a lower block of the Brian Clough Stand. The view of the game is good from this section and the leg room is ample too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially during a cost of living crisis. I think there was also no trains? I was going to go to Coventry but decided on Forest instead. Much better away day.
