Barnsley (H) - Play-Off 1st Leg

[Traf]

The 2,000 agreement was Barnsley's request.
Even if we gave then 4,800, they still only wanted to give us 2,100.

What are they gonna do with those who already have tickets in SSL, it willbe very lonely if ur sat there

[barrycowdrill]

The club and more so its ticketing arrangements get flak often. However in this instance I’m not sure how much more the could’ve done. 
 

their CEO has come out in interview and admitted the 2k limit was their choice. We requested more which was rejected. On that basis I’m perfectly comfortable with reciprocating their allocation and chancing there’s enough interest here to sell the lower tier. Doesn’t appear that that’s the case but I’d much rather it be empty than give them 5k and only get the 2k In return. We’ve been quick to sell ourselves in the past. Glad we’re not doing it this time

Christ knows what’s going on - also now seem to be more tickets released/available in ESU and WSU than there were a few hours ago.  Must be some guy pressing random buttons somewhere at Ticketmaster.  Really unfair for folk buying tickets then seeing an hour later better ones available.

Those that have become available in ESU and WSU are ‘restricted view’ tickets. If you look at the groups of seats that are now showing they are all around the stand entrance / exit and there is generally a small area of the pitch blocked by one of the handrails around the entrance / exit. 
 

Fuck knows why the club have only just decided to put them on sale now but just providing an explanation.

This Ticketmaster is a joke; had a look at their home game tickets last night and it looked like only a few left with behind the goal sold out. Looked just now and there are loads not sold; another week mind and maybe some of their lot waiting to see how tomorrow’s game goes before committing

I think they left their season ticket holder seats reserved until today.

Correctamundo.

Giving the whole end to clubs, although its wank and small time, is not a new thing to us. 

They'd have done it if they could.

Gutted about this… my lad has a tournament in Fleetwood- doesn’t finish until 4. No trains, so can’t do the two

wouldn’t feel right going without him, but then am I letting the eldest down?

Go and support your lad, mate. We’ll have plenty more play offs in the years to come.

That cant be right

Everybody knows we cant beat the top teams

fine margins

if Derby get in ahead of Peterborough we're on 6 points and minus goal difference (dunno what it does to the others)

seeing that the other day though did give me a warm feeling inside

[Lostock Whites]

I've spoken with the ticket office and apparently we've sold just 14 tickets.

Shocking effort

yes

No way; needs match practice and not in this game. Might be good off the bench in the second leg though

Nah 

[mattbwfc19]

I've always thought he's been much more impactful when coming off the bench, bit of a risk in such a big game 

[Biggish Dave]

Big Dan to start up top - Bod can be on the bench

Bodvarsson on crutches is still better than Nlundulu, Kachunga, Jerome or Adebeyejo

Tbf they were some decent performances on Sunday  

[Marc505]

Sorry if I've missed this, but I see they've stopped taking bookings for SSL so they can concentrate on filling other areas. Are they moving people out of there now who already have tickets or just leaving a smattering of fans there?
