8 selling well
I do wonder what iFollow is doing to the attendances. Lot easier to “boycott” if you can watch in your pants with a can at home.
Ifollow is infuriating for me and I hope they can clamp down more on the use of VPN’s. I know fans like Nick are paying for it, but a lot watch on Facebook streams or down the pub. Ironically, it’s those fans that are the first to complain when we have to sell a player.
Are you offering?
Already got my usual 2
The whole of Tilton around to Main Kop, is about 17k i read somewhere.
Doesnt look like we will sell out.
9k sold and were behind the goal, means at least 1/2 k season ticket holders not bought?
And you would be right. I cannot believe they have allowed 7 blocks for segregation.I think the ticket limit is a lot less than you’re thinking. No reason to think all seven blocks will be available is what I’m saying.
As someone who can’t get to a lot of games (couldn’t have done last weekend for example, since the divorce kids come first and childcare is hard to come by) I get really annoyed at the “anyone got a stream” people. I pay the sub for iFollow and know the club is getting money. Same as people that used to boast about getting in on kids tickets. I’m subsidising your tight arse!
So club are saying the last available block in Tilton is being sold - T08, which will likely sell out today. We'll then have a period where tickets are temporarily sold out. Tomorrow ST seats are released and when they're sold, that's it. So both clubs will have sold out, but they'll be 8000 seats unsold for segregation. That's a lot of missed revenue for the club.
genuine question... I pay for season tickets for a family of four( small fortune ) and have done for last 15 years +, I pay for seasonal parking at the grounds, I buy kids shirts ( sometimes home & away ) every season, buy food and drink at every game, pay to go the kit launches AND I was paying for a VPN & follow for away games, however the VPNs I used all got blocked. I paid for new ones & they got blocked. I spent weeks trying to fiddle around and get follow to work & just couldnt . in the end ive ended up watching on streams now. How do you get it to reliably work on follow every week...
I want to watch my club play, if there is a way to do that and ive exhausted all ways to do it properly, then im not going to turn off a free stream.. if the club & EFL want the money to go to clubs then stop doing stupid things like this where they make it easier for people to watch it free than it is to pay to watch it - its gonna happen anyway, so make it available to all. I also dont buy into 'ifollow is killing attendees' peep who want to watch it live & can watch it live will!
honestly I dont feel like im robbing the club of anything given what I spend year on year, and yeah I got pissed off with my mates bragging about how they got in on kids tickets or even worse didn't have tickets at all and said they just went out for a smoke or whatever and got in week after week at the Ricoh
Thats ridiculous if true!
The end of the Tilton has a natural Segregation zone as its the end of the block/stand!...why would they leave iit half empty?

I haven’t bought mine yet I’m going this afternoon
The limit is 20,000 set by the Safety Group ( not the clubs ) - that is 10,000 each
Ticket office expect to be sold out ( subject to ST's ) this afternoon
Unless SAG change minds or can be pursuaded there will be no more than our 10,000

So WMP are happy for fans to drink in the same pubs outside the ground, but the SAG would insist on 8000 empty seats inside the ground? Yeah, that's nuts.The limit is 20,000 set by the Safety Group ( not the clubs ) - that is 10,000 each

Looks like we have about 12k and blue 9.6k. 8000 empty seats is silly.
I can understand Blues being limited but not sure why we are. The stands are separate and we are at home.
My understanding is 10k each are the limits set by SAG

It's definitely outside the ground that's the issue. Splitting half and half at Wembley is easy to police but around the tight streets in Small Heath? Less so.
Although it's got more tricky, there are at least two commons ones that work. The key thing appears to be to delete all of your browsing data.
And before anybody starts, my ST cost 525, I pay for parking, I pay for my beer, and I stopped going to away games due to the coked-up, foul, racist behaviour of some of our supporters. I at least put something in the coffers via ifollow.
