Anybody else in the same boat as me? Everybody I know with a ST is going so I will have to wait til they go on open sale on Monday. Given the chaos that ensued on the phone lines/internet when they went on sale to season ticket holders I am expecting much the same situation Monday morning and so I'm thinking of going up to t'Reebok and queueing up to get some. Good move or not?

Really wouldn't lose any sleep over it. Just book online.

I don't recall any online chaos, it seemed super-efficient and easy

There were problems if you wanted to purchase a number of tickets.

The 45 I purchased went smoothly

I dont know anyone who hasnt got a ticket. We wont sell out. Everyone just needs to chill out a bit.

Says on BWFC website that Sunday 10th April is only day you can buy in person from the ticket office.

 

All sales on Monday 4th will be online or phone.

Poor them

 

I hope that yours went through OK

who was that plantpot int paper who queued up from 8pm night before, even though he had a ST, cause he thought there was going to be a big rush?

I always have a plan B. Thanks.

I've had to wait for open sale. I can't see there being a problem from what people are saying, that doesn't mean I won't be trying online the minute I can do though

One of the hundreds of season ticket holders who didn't get a Carling Cup Final ticket becasue the ticket office underestimated the demand.

Also one of the 13,000 ST holders who knew they could get 2 tickets each in an allocation of 32,000.

Ah. Cheers for that, Northender. Hadn't spotted it.

That'll be why they've done it differently this time. I'd love to meet the person who's never made an error of judgement.

it was you wasn't it....

tis no wonder they thought apathy would reign

To be fair I did, was an ST holder and didn't get a ticket

 

In fact I only got one through good folk on this site in the end

 

And that's when I went home and away each week

 

You can't blame folk for worrying after that, even though there seems no immediate reason to

 

Why are we so quick to get on each other's backs about stuff like this?

I was a season ticket holder and applied for 12 tickets (all ST holders, and we'd all attended against Villa in the semi) for the Carling Cup final at Cardiff - i got a letter saying i'd been "unsuccessful on this occasion"

The Bastards

I got my tickets in the end through a contact, and i haven't had a season ticket since.

Utter utter bastards.

I'm not bitter or owt though

We've sold around 20,000 so far according to the BN: http://www.theboltonnews.co.uk/sport/wanderers/wanderersnews/8943057.Semi_ticket_sales_set_to_top_20_000/

I was at Cardiff for the final, Im going to Wembley JSL

I very much doubt we'll sell out, or even come close. To sell 12,000 to Lifeline & open sale is a tall order.

 

Still, it doesn't matter how many we take.

well for what it's worth , i do..

 

we took 24k in 2000, when we could only pull in 12 k at 't reebok.

 

stoke will sell every ticket they can lay their grubby hands on.

 

we will be out sung all day, and if they get the wrong result , expect several boltonians to be on the recieving end of a good kicking.

As do I.

 

Surely we can muster more than 25k?

 

What is it with the Bolton public? Perhaps we should change the name to Bolton Apathetic
