stevegrant Posted 8 December, 2009 Author Share Posted 8 December, 2009 I'm reliably informed that the reason the online ticket sales say "Sold Out" is because the additional 600 tickets have not yet arrived. The original 1100 have all been sold. Expecting the deadline for the full allocation to shift as a result... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevegrant Posted 8 December, 2009 Author Share Posted 8 December, 2009 Is it confirmed that we are being given a second allocation then? The second allocation being the extra 600 to take us from 1100 to 1700, yes. Need to shift most of those 600 in the next day or two in order to get the full allocation though.

RedAndWhite91 Posted 8 December, 2009 Share Posted 8 December, 2009 If we do get the extra 1000 I think these will be behind the goal, Huddersfield had the corner + approximately 1000 behind the goal on saturday The tickets I got are in the South East Corner, upper tier. The cheese wedge as my Leeds supporting mate calls it. The area is SE3, which is the area closest to the stand behind the goal. I guess we've already sold SE1 and SE2 so any more allocations will either be the lower tier (if not already sold) or behind the goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Appy Posted 8 December, 2009 Share Posted 8 December, 2009 I think with the demand at the moment, it is fairly possible that we may leave Leeds no choice but to give us the remaining allocation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SOLD OUT. Second allocation requested, and allocated. Second allocation = 600. Slight delay arriving. Will be on sale tomorrow. Third allocation = 1,500. Will only be requested if we look like selling out the second allocation very soon. Hence the guy at the ticket office saying that is 'unlikely.' Please god let that be clear enough.

trousers Posted 9 December, 2009 Share Posted 9 December, 2009 Why couldn't they take bookings for the 600 '2nd tranche' tickets before they arrived at SMS? It's not as if there was any risk in Leeds not sending them down once SFC had placed the order for more. That way they would have got to know whether needing a third tranche was looking likely much quicker. No? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaintJackoInHurworth Posted 9 December, 2009 Share Posted 9 December, 2009 I spoke to the ticket office twice yesterday. The first person I spoke to said there would be tickets tomorrow (i.e. today). The second person said that this could not be guaranteed. This morning I rung to check again and I was told they didn't yet know if they would be getting a further allocation. They advised me to keep an eye on the website. So far I have hardly done any work today as I keep checking!! Aaagggghhh!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed. Why oh why wait for the 2nd 600 to arrive before offering them for sale? There's no consumer law that prevents you taking money for a product that's 'not in stock'. Surely the extra 600 are 'guaranteed' the minute the order for them was placed rather than the moment at which they arrive at their destination?

SaintJackoInHurworth Posted 9 December, 2009 Share Posted 9 December, 2009 Well, I've given up waiting for news on the website and just rang the ticket office. Sure enough, tickets were on sale, so I've bought my ticket. I also asked whether he knew if Saints had got or were going to get the final allocation of tickets. He told me the ticket I had bought was from the second (600) allocation of tickets and that they were nearly sold out. He didn't know for sure, but he was of the opinion that they probably wouldn't get another allocation of tickets. So.. if you are planning to get a ticket I would be ringing fairly soon or you will miss out!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
