There's also seating at the front of the stand that I don't think they're selling. Although Charlton had the bottom rows filled up when they went there this season, so I'm not sure.

 

They didn't sell those for Charlton either, that is the overflow I believe. It looked like Charlton filled the whole stand but had fewer than 2,800 fans there.

Great to be a Saint at the moment, eh? I was at Huddersfield away and after that display I thought I'd be able to buy tickets for any game I wanted!

 

Come on you Reds! Going for 6 in 6 for the first time in....?!

StuRomseySaint - Can you PM me please? I've been trying to work out how to send you a message for the last 15 minutes but to no avail. As I'm sure you can guess, I have a spare ticket for Saturday. £20 plus a pint for me and my mate.

 

Draino, Chez and Jack - Your requests have been noted so if Stu doesn't need it I'll let you know (in the order you've requested it on this thread.)

StuRomseySaint - Sorry for getting your hopes up but a mate of mine is being an incecisive **** and has now decided he is coming after all so the spare ticket has gone.

 

I hope you manage to find one from somewhere.

 

Pilsmer.

Gutted to be pulling out of this one - first away game missed in a number of seasons; but for the rest of you, happy days, I have a spare ticket. £20 to be picked up from my brother at the ground. First come, first served. PM me.

Methinks you protest too much sir! F**k knows why you feel the need to tell us how long you've been supporting Saints. Orient does seem like a lot of people are jumping on a bit of a bandwagon, its great we're taking lots of support to an away game, would just be nice to see that same enthusiasm for some of the less popular games.

 

It's a London away game FFS, we always take 2500-3000+ fans to London away games, tickets permitting. There's no bandwagon to jump on, it's just that the majority of fans who travel away will always try to get to the London games. Easy travelling, a day on the lash, and a good atmosphere due to a bigger away crowd makes these games much more appealling.

 

While I'm on the bandwagon, I'm still after 1 or 2 more tickets if anyone has/knows someone who has a spare or 2. Face value + a beer offered

meh, London's half way there. Some of us have a proper journey to get to the game.

 

6 of the 20 are either from Salisbury or Southampton and flying up, others are coming from Kent, East Sussex and Essex.

 

London Saints members extend well beyond the Greater London Area we even have one in Brussels. Of the 20 only only 8 have London addresses

We didn't even come close to selling out at Charlton this year, plenty of empty seats. I am very happy that we're taking such good support up there and the demand is so high to watch Saints, I'm just saying I hope there is similar enthusiasm for the less popular games, but I won't be holding my breath.....

missed out on tickets on Tuesday - they sold out with me about 15th in the queue!

 

3 of us now going to go up without tickets unless any come up in the meantime.

 

If we have to we will get tickets in the home end - probably South Stand and then hope to get transferred into the one of the many empty seats in the East Stand - I don't really understand why they can't sell more of the seats.

 

ANyone know where Saints will be drinking beforehand - probably best chance of picking spare tickets in the Saints end?

 

See you all up there.

1. We had about 2600 at Charlton from what I remember,

2. Are you suggesting Charlton is one of the less popular games?

My point is there were plenty of empty seats at Charlton away this year. In response to the other poster saying how great our support always is in London.

You don't think 2600 fans for an away game in the 3rd Division is not great support?

I suspect a couple of hundred decided to go due to results, but a lot, lot more will want tickets because there are so many going and it is bound to be a f*cking great day.

People had got a bit bored with Charlton to be honest, so many times there in recent years. And of course we weren't having good results.

 

Now we've picked up result wise, it's a new ground for many of the younger fans, and a nostalgic ground for many. Not rocket science to work out why there's such demand for this one...

I'd like to see that question answered before we get accused of being JCLs for not going to the Walsall game.

For those of us going up without tickets - I have just checked the website and an article dated today says that there will be a cash turnstile in the South Stand.

 

See you there

I think you are getting confused between JCLs and "big game" fans. Think the points between made above were valid, everynow and then we get away games that every comes out of the woodwork for. All of us love taking huge numbers away, but those of us that do every away game would just like to see it happen a bit more often.

 

We probably have the 3rd best away support in this division after Leeds and Norwich.

I have to say I tip my hat to the hardcore that do every away game it is a big commitment & fair play to you.

 

There are a lot of people myself included that cant due to work get to every away game I guess the last 4 seasons I average about 10/12 a season and always go to London games as it easy travel & a good day out.

 

I think you are right there are always games that prove more popular Reading last season is an example but any kind of increase on away support is good as people get the bug for it & some become hardcore.

 

I have been impressed with our support home & away this season the I hope we keep winning & more & more people get the bug to follow the Saints all over the country.

Disagree mate, without checking i'd be prepared to bet on average they take more away than us.

they have 200 away season ticket holders.

they have sold out in advance for stockport away, when we start selling out games like that north of watford i'll start getting excited.

I have a spare Under 18 ticket (ex wife being a B**ch and not letting my boy come). I realise that one junior ticket on its own may not be much use, but if anyone wants it let me know. Face value (£13) fine

I have a spare Adult Ticket £20 value as a mate dropped out last minute due to "finances" so will sell first come first serve as face value. Message me and i will arrange it. Im going from Central around 10am so can meet there, or in London at ground or something. Hope this helps someone who really needs a ticket!
