Site Supporter MickyD Posted February 20, 2017 Site Supporter Share Posted February 20, 2017 Only 1 hour from St Pancras and the grounds 15 minute walk max One hour from St Pancras? Fucking hell, Manchester is only two hours (and a bit) from Euston. An hour from St Pancras could be best part of a hundred miles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bolty58 Posted February 21, 2017 Members Share Posted February 21, 2017 Fuck me ill be glad when this match is done with. With this and Bradford we've seen the biggest game of who's the bigger club / attendance / away following wankathon tennis that twitter has ever seen. Who gives a fuck. Precisely. What competition for crowds do they have around them? Rotherham, Barnsley and Wednesday. Like choosing between syphilis, haemorrhoids and gout.

jturner Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 I'm thinking people in Sheffield are not the best planners of football matches in the worldLets give promotion chasing Bolton Wanderers less tickets than Scunthorpe United?Barmy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Carlos Posted February 21, 2017 Moderators Share Posted February 21, 2017 Scunthorpe United who aren't promotion chasing? Mindblowing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jturner Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Scunthorpe United who aren't promotion chasing? Mindblowing. Scunthorpe's last home league attendance was 3,168 They give more tickets to that than a promotion chasing Bolton Wanderers? Someone should show them a video of Rotherham 90/91 of what Bolton take to South Yorkshire when chasing promotion from Div 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barmy Tbh I'd say it's the other way round "Are you going to sell all the lower tier?" "No" "Ok then we will have those tickets back" How many did scunthorpe sell?

Traf Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Tbh I'd say it's the other way round "Are you going to sell all the lower tier?" "No" "Ok then we will have those tickets back" I think that's exactly what has happened, but BWFC hadn't been warned it might happen.

jturner Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Just under 3,000 Scunthorpe were at Sheffield apparantly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traf Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Just under 3,000 Scunthorpe were at Sheffield apparantly Yes, they had the top tier and then got another 1,000 downstairs. Which then shows the lower tier can be segregated. There might well be a chance of some late tickets then or POTD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There might well be a chance of some late tickets then or POTD I doubt it was segregated for that game, don't think they ever do that with the lower tier there (it's just one open area downstairs if memory serves) more likely they realised they had the demand to sell more lower tier than scunthorpe did so after that game decided if we weren't going to pay for all the tickets they'd have them back - I reckon, as you say, it was probably as much a surprise to our ticket office as it was to us fans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted February 21, 2017 Site Supporter Share Posted February 21, 2017 I don't really believe what the players/management say about taking 1 game at a time. We've all been waiting for this game for weeks - both sets of players/fans etc. It's a bit churlish the way they have done it but 2200 for a division 3 team is still a reasonable amount of tickets. A shame really, I don't think we'd have taken full allocation but could easily have seen 3500+ going over Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gonzo Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Can you not buy one ticket for an upcoming match, get a PH and then buy some tickets for Saturday? Or do they do a ticket gift voucher at the club shop like they do at Fleetwood Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
