Probs cause unlike our fanbase this summer not everyone raids the club shop the moment the new kit is released
I have been reading through this as a Spurs fan over the last few days.
Couple of points come to mind.
Most seem to think the game will not sell out. ( not sure)
Priced to high. ( Spurs fans paid the same away to Fulham in the 2nd round last year £30 although i agree £37 is too high)
Children's prices to high. ( totally agree)
Spurs allocation has sold out higher number of points than needed for Leicester on a Monday night a couple of weeks ago.
If game goes to general sale then Spurs fans will buy tickets in the home arears as most Spurs fans have not been to your stadium.

Hence why it will never go to general sale.

Where as if it was full to the brim we'd be called plastic and a load of day trippers
Those who want to slag us off, from the usual suspect clubs will regardless - not remotely arsed one bit

Why though mate , we get good crowds now with the home end practically full v oxford and norwich

and say what you want about the pricing structure, but if we'd have started the season off with four straight victories no one would bat an eyelid at how much it costs and the game would have sold out today or tomorrow

Cause one flick through social media and you'd think the ground was still half empty every week - Mud sticks

I saw a Birmingham fan un-ironically call us plastic regardless of the fact before the Brady Bunch took them over they consistently failed to come close to selling out a half functioning and open stadium
It's one of those tags we will unfortunately live with
The years of dross we were served up and the camera angle at the stadium showing pockets of empty corporate seats have seen to that unfortunately
Thats you though mate, many of the types that will want to come to this are the sort who came to some of the Wembley appearances.

It will, but to anyone with an account like Wembley.
There's problem 100,000 people with an active account.

They can still drop the 200 points requirement if they want another load through the door - I think it’s fair enough to give points holders the pick of seats for now though. If there are a few thousand seats remaining it’ll be interesting to see if they hold off on a general sale as the demand will always be there for a Prem team.

It’s surely more embarrassing when we used to take as many fans to cup games at Arsenal and Old Trafford as we managed at home league games. Thats the definition of a tin pot club
Thats not General sale then as you still need to be a member.

Unless they have brought from the club before the draw was made then they won't be able to buy tickets
We don't have a General Sale as such, our version is on sale to everyone with a prior purchase

They 100% will.
I imagine they'd sell out even with it. We probably have 30,000 people on 200 points.

You don't, you just need previous purchase history. Most people in Coventry will have that.

Who can actually buy a ticket at the time of writing? I brought my ST seat on Saturday so I haven't really been following it that much

Any supporter with 200+ points

I think it will end up being mid 20,000s then
Bet he regrets not giving Spurs the whole end and having a guaranteed 6k paying 37 quid

Still convinced it will sell out. It's the sort of game that gets loads of hype in the days before.
We've always sold tickets poorly early on. It happens whenever we have a huge away end. People don't rush.

I'd be surprised if we have 500 people on 200+ points. Most people who go regularly now have season tickets. Those of that can't (live 100+ miles away etc) - can't get most away tickets & only starting putting the supporter numbers on home ticket purchases last year!.

ST holders are included in that 200+ points club.

You'll struggle with that. There were 4000 Leeds fans in the home end last season so they put a stop to it.
Coventry could have given Spurs more tickets, maybe 5000, i know you have moved the away end and you only need to allocate 5% for the league Cup, but i guess you can allocate more if required ie for the FA Cup. Too late now, your chairman must have been convinced he could sell out at these prices.
Anyway i have been allocated a ticket from Spurs and look forward to visiting your stadium, having been to Highfield Road and drinking in the Mercers Arms many times.

Competing for money is my argument, that's all nothing about brand loyalty or anything like that,and there will be some hedging there bets, to deny that is well, ignorant?

we give everyone about that, why should we give anyone more?
we'll also sell out or as near as sell out the game

Sorry - I think we have about 21K season ticket holders.
After that - we have very few people with large numbers of points.
Given the uptake of season ticket holders has been underwhelming - they should drop the number of points needed (?50) - so people can crack on and buy tickets.
I wouldnt mind if I could print my ticket on hold - but I really dont want to have to queue at the ticket office on arrival (Its hard enough to get there for kick of as it is!)
