Question re tickets please:

We are 2 exiles with Crewe match stubs.  I have Trust membership (as does my wife, but she does not know it).

Wed is our day for trying to get tickets.  Normally, I would take my chances for getting tickets by telephoning and being patient and persistent.

The official site says that telephone applications will only be dealt with after “over the counter sales have been processed”.  This presents a severe risk of not getting tickets.  For exiles who live away anyway.

The only safe option is to set off off very early and queue for tickets.  The arrangement on the official site is “one Chelsea ticket per single stub or Trust membership”.  If I am at the ticket office on Wed on my own with both stub tickets from Crewe and my Trust membership (as backup)  CAN I GET TWO TICKETS?

I cannot ring the club and clarify the arrangements for issuing 2 tickets to 1 person (with stubs for 2 people)  as they are not dealing with calls!

I could not get a mini-season ticket either as my wife has been very ill and I could not guarantee going to any games this season.


Use the online system on Tue Evening that way your order can be processed first thing Wed when the ticket office opens.

Very similar to my scenario. I’m not an exile but I am a Trust member and I have two Crewe stubs - I’m off to the ticket office on Wednesday in need of 3 tickets.......

I am a part time supporter with no stubs. I think the ticket system is unfair. I should get first dibs to try and get my regular support. Season ticket holders have paid up front so can afford to urine them off.

I think it's a little unfair you could be best buddies with a season ticket holder and nothing but a part time fair weather fan and get your hand in before a lot of the hard core who go to every game they can home and away but maybe can't have a season ticket because of work commitments or whatever.

I'll admit I've benefitted from this as my mate got me sorted straight away, I've got both stubs for the next wave but because of contacts sorted before they needed.

Though I'm more than a fair weather fan, there could be slightly more dedicated supporters than myself (I at work a helluva lot) who miss out.

Thank you for the advice on tickets.

Another option, if an away ticket is not possible, is to buy home tickets direct from Chelsea.

Thought about that yeh - I just really struggle sitting in the home end at an away game - I’ve only actually done it the once and that was at a certain game at Burton 😳

Does anyone know if this game is going to be "live" on a betting website?
