32,000 sold already (18 Viewers)

[its a buzzard]

Sorted the tickets. The system works well in fairness. My account was up to date and with a little bit of swapping and changing I got five together - agree with comments above, the 'Best Available' tab is definitely best.

I think there will still be some to go around for general sale, but maybe only a couple of thousand. Hopefully for those people that haven't got tickets, some of the left over Oxford allocation can be given to them.

The only thing I'm a bit sad about is having to try and take the best of what was left, no worries though, I went on the 'View From Your Seat' page and the view doesn't actually look like it's going to be too bad:

You paid for a seat in the middle of a field?

Is she sitting with Otis's wife

No, she's in Cell Block H.

 

[Moff]

What block did you get Moff in the end? I'm now in 552 after some confusion over the group I'm going with. Managed to get the others sold as well.

Glad you got your 4 pal.

Cheers Weeman. I am in block 538 up in the stars

 

[Speng]

Oxford should sell their allocation fairly comfortably.

 

[no_loyalty]

Oxford should sell their allocation fairly comfortably.

I thought a lot of Oxford fans were boycotting?

 

[Nick]

I thought a lot of Oxford fans were boycotting?

So were ours!

 

[Liquid Gold]

Oxford should sell their allocation fairly comfortably.

I went on their forum and they seem to think 20-25k will be their limit.

 

[Nick]

So in real money that is 5000 at 6 per person hoping to sell at a profit. No different from the the owners then. 5000 at "Wemerly" then.

Cracker this one!

 

[North York’s Blue]

I'm in 552, just confirming row numbers with the relative who got our tickets.

EDIT - Just found out, row 15. No chucking popcorn or anything at me.

Also in 552, rows 2, 3 and 4

 

[Skyblueweeman]

Wow...you must take up a lot of room...shouldn't be too hard to see you. I'll say hi :emoji_hand_splayed:

Only sold 2,000 in an hour!

If that's correct then they won't need the top tier. We should be able to have as much of that as we want. Had Scotland fans in the top tier above England fans, if they're happy enough to do that I can't see any reason they'd have a problem with our fans being above Oxfords.

 

[Rusty Trombone]

From a quick calculation based on the available seats showing on the website, there's about 6,000 tickets left.
Blocks 551 to 534 have singles, these add up to 260.
Block 533 currently on sale - about 500 hundred left.
The following are not released yet - Block 532 has around 825 seats, Block 531 has 950, Block 530 has 1,000, Block 529 has 1,100, Block 528 has 1,200. Not sure if we have Block 527, but that only has around 400.

Yep, and it would make a pleasant change for us to be above anybody.

 

[cov4theprem]

I would agree with the 34k mark. Based on how easy it is to order on line I'm not convinced there are many people yet to order tickets. I think we'll sell 40,000 but not need any extras

 

[Speng]

I think we will take between 42k and 45 k

 

[robbiekeane]

All sorted. Think I'm a couple of rows behind you @Earlsdon_Skyblue1

[Cranfield Sky Blue]

Sorry that's not an allocated bar for the west end of the stadium.

 

[Monners]

Fuck me...I get it all the time from my real mates in real life. Now, even pretend people in the laptop are taking the piss :facepalm:

Perhaps you should change your user name to Napoleon

 

[Skyblueweeman]

I might be short but I'm not a bell end!

Just messing mate - soz again

 

[duffer]

Ah, we used to go The Moon for a pint. It's a bit closer than Jupiter but in truth there's no atmosphere.

 

[Speng]

How are sales looking ?
How many do you think will be left for sale on Monday ?

 

[AndreasB]

There were quite a lot of single seats in the bottom and middle tiers but these suddenly got removed half way through the ST window. Either ticketmaster hive these off to resale sites or they might open them up at a later date.

The same block that was on sale yesterday evening is still on sale this morning with plenty of seats available. This will easily go to general sale with about 6,000 seats remaining.

 

[smileycov]

nick is gonna have a go at you in a minute. no jokes allowed about slade tactics as you can see here Any point keeping Slade here?

that is of course if @Nick is not bias. or maybe he will be shown up for the bully that he is.

FFS Bore off!!

but thats not alot for a general sale really is it? its gone how we expected. huge demand.

although how many are waiting for general sale is a question mark.

 

[cov4theprem]

Not sure now if we'll sell the 40k. Can't see many more than a few hundred picking up tkts from Monday and nobody buying now so maybe 35,000 is more realistic target

dont hate me cos im a chess master

hate me cos i have a superior knowledge of football to you and im an arse who boasts about it.

Its not a huge figure but I'd imagine most of the core support will have a ticket by now, got to remember each ST holder and previous match ticket holder had access to 6 tickets each so people waiting for general sale will have probably known somebody to tag along with.

I think we may just stumble to the full capacity, just. I do think results under Mark Robins may have a big impact as to whether they are snapped up quickly or not.

I think you're right. If we start smashing it now (we're relegated I know) it might feel a little bit like a new team rather than cheering on the worst team we've ever seen for city
