We should be giving any unsold SSL tickets to local schools and businesses How does that work? 3pm on Saturday there are 4k tickets left, who's contacting schools and businesses and arranging for them to be distributed? Not sure what it achieves, we are aiming to score 1 or 2 more than Bradford, not go for an attendance record. Quote

Think we can shift the lower south stand similar to Barnsley game. Actually looking forward to it being 8pm on Saturday night, under the lights, it's going to be bouncing. COYWM. 3rd time lucky, it needs to be our time now! It was a good crowd but we didn't have 22.5k fans. The tickets sold was that many but as we know its not hundreds its thousands that can't make a given game. The play off attendance will be real, nobody's buying a ticket and not going. If we get 20k home fans it will be a fantastic turnout for an 8pm KO live on TV, everyone having to make the effort and expense to buy a ticket, and with 1 week's notice that the game is happening.

No doubt plenty Bradford will be having an afternoon/early evening drinking in Manchester before continuing their journey to Horwich. It could get messy. Quote

Massive match. £20 a decent adult price and £5 for kids is great. We should be selling out. I’m planning to travel up from London with my 9 year old. That would be about 8k more home fans than a normal home crowd, which is made up of about 15k that have already paid up front. We really shouldn't be selling out, 20k would be brilliant, it would be disappointing if that level of turnout was considered poor. Quote

Stig Posted Monday at 08:15 Posted Monday at 08:15 If I was a foreign tourist looking for a game to attend, play off semis would be right up there tbh. Forget the sanitised prem games Quote

Traf Posted Monday at 08:37 Posted Monday at 08:37 So, what's the crack here with home tickets? They go on sale at 10am, but season ticket holders have until Wednesday to get their own seat? So, no mad scramble for us to bag our preferred option? Quote

And yet I’m still sat here at 9.58am in a virtual waiting room 😂 Quote
only1swanny Posted Monday at 09:07 Posted Monday at 09:07 Good job tried to log on and the site appears to be having issues.. Guess I'll wait a bit 😛 Quote
Ani Posted Monday at 09:42 Posted Monday at 09:42 Worked fine once I remembered to log on rather than just select tickets. There is a button I think says ‘reserved tickets’ and it lists the tickets in your network, for some reason it always tries to get me to buy Chief Wiggums ticket too . Quote

only1swanny Posted Monday at 10:57 Posted Monday at 10:57 had to go through my history to the last time I bought a ticket and get in that way. Thankfully i have no need to delete my browser history.. 😁 Quote
batton carrier Posted Monday at 11:04 Posted Monday at 11:04 Just got our 3 plus an extra one. No drama at all Quote

This most certainly isn't a normal home game. Quote
