TICKETS (21 Viewers)

Boro fan here, we used to give up half of the South stand behind the goal to away fans but was thought to give the away team an advantage kicking into the goal with away fans in it so they were moved to where it is now. There are issues with stadium design though on the concourses for segregation and we seem to have rows of seats either side of the away fans empty so we've lost maybe a 1,000 off capacity. It's stupid and overkill you see Arsenal v Spurs and all there is between the fans is a line of stewards...

Wait till you see the segregation on Sunday compared to Boro yesterday!

I mean there has been at least 2 weeks to plan for this eventuality. Just seems the club has been running around all day in panic mode with a clunky sales approach causing all sorts of problems.
The away end situation is annoying especially following the game up there which showed a simple solution, put the away fans in the corner and get 1000’s more home fans in.

 

[CaptainCook]

There’s no point in limiting Boro to 2k if we aren’t planning on putting our own fans behind the goal.
Might as well give them 4k

You would think they'd split that stand in half with a bit of segregation down the middle. There's never been any chew between Cov/Boro fans that I know of down the years...

 

[Evo1883]

My mate has just said he couldn't renew his ST or get his ticket for sunday bloody right mess looks like ST holders will miss out through no fault of there own.

Yea I've just heard off somebody the same

 

[Broken Hearted Sky Blue]

Not really proper fans are they?
Biggest game in 20 years think I’ll go to the pub wow

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Not really because blocks 6/7/8 aren't directly behind the goal.

Ideally Coventry fans will be in block 9-13.

I mean generally. They tend to end up shooting towards 3-4000 of their own fans

And wait for the Mackems shouting on about how both teams have shite fans and can't sell their tickets...

 

[pusbccfc]

This is what 2000 fans looks like in the away end given to Boro.

Make that netting smaller and we should surely be allowed some of block 9?

Boro fans will be fuming when they see the empty seats in their end on Sunday.

 

[David O'Day]

They did a sponsored act like a statue at our place this season

 

[torchomatic]

Car Park A & B already sold out.

Offsite still available. We always park at John Shelton.

You could have told Cov that, I went there twice watching us and we lost twice without scoring.

Still queuing

 

[torchomatic]

I'll try later with my son. Reserved until tomorrow so no real rush. Hopefully once the initial rush is over it'll be a shorter wait

I travelled back from Middlesborough earlier. Got home at 2 and logged straight in and got our tickets - no extras.

Still queuing

That photo is not recent. Kilcoyne would have been up there early doors. Can't believe he's in the queue at this time of day.

 

[torchomatic]

As they are allowing two tickets for every season ticket holder it’s going to be a mad scramble tomorrow - doubt there will be more than 6,000 left

Nor necessarily. I didn't buy any extra and not everyone will.

 

[thekidfromstrettoncamp]

Question for tomorrow I am a season ticket holder as I see it I've got from 9 30am till 11o clock to get mine.When i get there I presume non season ticket holder will have started to queue how will the queues be seperated.

 

[The_Monk]

If someone else get me tickets and assign then to my client number, will I still get loyalty points?

 

[clint van damme]

About 13.5K sold apparently, so home end about half full right now. Few will go tonight I'm sure. Not sure why they are limiting it to 1 ticket per person on general sale, a strange move that.

Looking at the map there doesn't seem many left.
Can't be that many seats held back for ST holders can there?

Lot of people will have been at work all day. Expect a load to be sold this evening

wtf

I think you'll be surprised how many seats become available tomorrow. A lot have moved seats in order to sit next to the +1, some wont be going at all. Real opportunity for those who want to go in the corner who can't normally get a ticket to get one for this game.

If it does look like that Sunday it will be shocking, both legs should have the stadiums packed to the rafters. To 'sell out' and leave blocks empty is criminal...

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

What was the problem

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

My mate has just said he couldn't renew his ST or get his ticket for sunday bloody right mess looks like ST holders will miss out through no fault of there own.

What was this issue? Does he have a supporter number?

 

[Calista]

The e-Ticketing site refuses to open for me.

The error message says “something about your browser made us think you were a bot. You're a power user moving through this website with super-human speed.”

I suppose I should be flattered.

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

Are blocks 10-13 gonna be opened?

They won't be, you'll be in the queue with the rabble

I had that problem until someone recommended logging out of wifi and that worked.

My latest problem is can't access my wife's account and had no joy with password reset. Tried linking her to my account but says she doesn't exist even using her supporters number?

 

[mark82]

They won't be, you'll be in the queue with the rabble

And I suspect it will start queueing relatively early (and some I assume will then have to re-enter the queue as they get there too early).

 

[pusbccfc]

Have asked

Who have you asked Pete?

I got there about 4.30 after driving 180 miles back from Kent, only to be told the queue had been closed at 3.00 and there were hundreds outside waiting to get in. Just bought 6 in block 32 online, but we're st holders in 28 and it wouldn't process them!!!! sounds like the usual ticketmaster bollocks, sent the office an email asking them to check if there's an issue, but 6 tickets will be available in 28 tomorrow.
