The Great Escape gathers pace

 

 

3-0

Don't remember them bringing numbers like that ever

 

Perhaps once in 90's at Burnden there was one?

shame though as its 50k gone

 

can only assume issues with getting plod at short notice

 

also, seemed to be a serious lack of turnstiles open v blackburn

It's not as though we need the money that a bigger crowd would bring.............

Or plod wanting to up the category of the game so again higher costs. A 'short notice charge' isn't beyond them either.

 

If they were going to shift significantly more than the 2,200 then they'd have sold the first lot weeks ago.

If Hudds wanted the top tier, surely we could have said yes - on the proviso they pay for all the extra tickets whether they sell them or not

And surely they would have said fuck off

 

They couldn't guarantee how many they would sell so we said we're not paying staff and police required to open top tier

 

As jules said, they never bring that many numbers so a handful of fans who probably left it late buying tickets has turned into another 1800 saying they Def would've come

 

If they are that arsed they can sneak into west lower or something

<Maybe we did, but they havent taken the option

 

Wasnt it huddersfield who brought a load of "walk ups" on a night match that the club werent prepared for, and had to open upper tier with loads moaning thy didnt get in until half time

even then, it would depend when they asked and whether gmp would agree

Yes it was, think it was the game just after Easter so a similar story.

Yorkshire folks moaning? Whatever next?

Well if they reckon they would of sold 4000, i imagine there will be plenty venturing into our end then,

Think club have made right decision they've had plenty time to pre sell tickets yet only shifted 2200 don't see why they think they can sell another 2k.

Doing a bit of digging its Huddersfield who have actually not requested any more additional tiks.. blame them.

 

They pretty much sold out their initial allocation ( which was pretty low anyway) this week. There is no chance they would shift anywhere near the additional 4k.

Huddersfield have not brought more than a few thousand to us for years. As said, they should have took the lot from the start, but only asking for an initial 1600 tells it's own story. Small time......

They never really bring fuck all considering how close it is. Fuck um tin pot yarkshire tramps.

2-1 whites after conceding an early goal.

 

Catagory A game my arse!

Spare adult and kid ticket for wsl if anyone wants them.

If folk don't get season tickets folk leave themselves open to high prices after all New Year's Day games usually well attended.

similar thing with hull when we bear them four one. No demand for extra tickets until they won in midweek before the game then on Thursday theyre asking for more. We told them to fuck off as well

Lucky beard still clinging to my face. (Mrs Rat not at all happy)

 

2-1

This works same at all clubs. You get an allocation, you can request more but you are responsible for guaranteeing an agreed % of the extra are sold.

 

Makes sense not to open extra bit of ground for a small number of fans.

Exactly, they are talking a few hundred at best. We haven't got City or United coming.

City had a shit following too.

wasn't that because they thought we were charging too much and are a principled lot? How's that going these days?
