Quoted from BIGChris


Well i bought 16 yesterday in one transaction using the online system so that is very strange


Thirteen did seem a bit of an arbitrary number so I wonder if that was just the width of the Cat 1 'blocks' on sale? Hopefully there won't be any problems ordering 14 tickets together tomorrow.

Not exactly worried that they will run out so no great rush!

I will be booking mine at approximately 9:00 tomorrow morning, but shouldn't worry too much.  Unlike the semi-finals we all know that we will be able to get tickets so can take our time to get the tickets we want.  Also like Rob says many people will be buying bulk tickets, extended families coming down to support the team etc. so will take a few days to make those arrangements.  

I think below 15,000 would be poor, 15,000 to 20,000 would be par and 20,000 and above would be good.  Lets hope that all extended families can make up the numbers while those who always there can make the noise!

I'm part of a big group booking which will probably be made next week. There is absolutely no sense of rush so I am not even slightly concerned about 1st day sales.

How many did we take to the Trophy final? Surely we'll take comfortably more this time. I'm flying over from France with my Dad. We would have loved to have gone in 2013 but never seriously considered it because of the cost, but we weren't going to miss the play off final.  There must be loads of people who are of a similar mindset. I think we'll take close to 20k.

Bristol is 10x bigger than Grimsby - bear that in mind

Like others have said, everyone knows there is no rush and it takes a while to check with family and friends about who wants tickets etc.  There's no real reason for season ticket holders to rush in early - seems a bit of a waste of two days as the number of tickets available is vastly more than the number of ST holders.

One thing they didn't make clear is that a season ticket holder could buy more than 1 ticket. However there is plenty for all so no rush.

Anyone know what the cut off date for buying tickets will be?

Just thinking of the postal service being unpredictable and if you order say this time next week when the tickets might turn up...

What arrangements are covered by the postal fee they're charging...just 1st class stamp or is it signed for?

Looking forward to two weeks of people bealing about our ticket sales...

Who gives a toss?


Will all the forth coming sales threads be merged?

Bealing is a great word. Haven't heard it for years.
