View From The Top Posted 3 March, 2011 Share Posted 3 March, 2011 Absolutely gutted as having just spoken to TO they claim never to have received our application by fax. Had been to 9 away games this season so should have been near the front of the queue. If anyone has 2 tickets they are willing to sell for decent money please let me know asap. I have. One of my oppos has a pair that he can't use My email is terraceclassics@gmail.com Would want paypal, bank transfer or cash by Special Delivery as I'll have to give him the ££ upfront for them.

Saint_Jonny Posted 5 March, 2011 Share Posted 5 March, 2011 Parents just phoned me up and said if I can get hold of a ticket then they will pay for me to get down to the game travel wise. I said it was hugely unlikely but I'll try. Would love a PM from one of you lot if you have a spare in any part of the ground. The rents' said they'd even fly me down! Mental.

LeBenali Posted 6 March, 2011 Share Posted 6 March, 2011 I believe we've been allocated The Moon in the Square in the town centre (a Wetherspoons). Got security on the door from 9am, and apparantly the only people they're letting in are Saints fans and well known regulars. About a mile from the train station, but in the opposite direction to Dean Court. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy_Porter Posted 6 March, 2011 Share Posted 6 March, 2011 Didn't happen to me at Bristol Rovers this season or any of the four times i've been. Went on the train for all of them. An police operation like the one they had for us at Milwall last season would be a massive waste of money. Where Bournemouth frog marched around at our two home games? I think if they where in any way worried about either fixture they would just stick it on boxing day and it would be far easier to police as there are obviously no trains.

fanimal Posted 7 March, 2011 Author Share Posted 7 March, 2011 All this has confirmed the point of my original thread, in that Bournemouth have really screwed up the ticket arrangements for this game, and in doing so, compounded their small club mentality. We could have sold 3x our allocation easily, and they could have accomodated 3,360 saints fans by giving us the normal full allocation and the temporary stand end, which by the way was virtually empty on saturday v Oldham. (Attendance 7,075 out of 12,060 capacity). Instead, there will be hundreds of Saints fans (its so close, try the off chance, go down for a few pints, enjoy the crack) seeing if they can get a ticket from the people at that end who are real JCLs; there will be segregation issues, and no doubt fun and games outside before, if not after.

Griffo Posted 7 March, 2011 Share Posted 7 March, 2011 If you don't have a ticket, come down anyway. Try and force your way into the away end. It'll work if there's enough of you doing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

100%Red&White Posted 7 March, 2011 Share Posted 7 March, 2011 How have they screwed up? It's a sell-out I guess what he maybe saying is - the tickets went on sale in October and it's only just sold-out a week or so ago (4 months to sell 10k home tickets for their "biggest game of the season"). And as they've given us a paltry allocation (half as many as they gave Brighton) then potentially a lot of ticketless Saints fans may make the trip in hope that their JCLs may cash in. It's hardly proved the hottest-ticket-in-town for many Boscombe residents. I'm aware of a number going down willing to pay above face-value to get in. If not an afternoon down the beach and an icecream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackanorySFC Posted 7 March, 2011 Share Posted 7 March, 2011 What a fantastic idea! No bad can come of this. To be fair it did at Fratton (the first game there after they were promoted), I didn't have a ticket and just bundled my way through and stood on the stairs between blocks. Helped being 30 minutes late and with 500 unhappy punters though.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yamms_schmitz Posted 7 March, 2011 Share Posted 7 March, 2011 Prepare for 90 minutes of scummer songs. Bompey fans were singing "bring on the scummers" on Saturday. Allocating the moon in the square is crazy. It is in the opposite direction to the ground, from the train and coach station. It would also involve the old bill escorting supporters through town, and then a really long police escort from the pub to the ground. I wouldn't bother. It would take an hour to walk from the pub going at the police pace. Instead get escorted to the ground, then walk over the park into boscombe. There you will find plenty of pubs and eateries.

alehouseboys Posted 8 March, 2011 Share Posted 8 March, 2011 Wasn't there going to be buses laid on for us though? I does seem a bit odd they'd try and keep Saints fans in a town centre pub mixing with shoppers and miles from the ground. But if true and they really are laying on buses just watch out in case the OB are pulling that old fartton trick by doing everything to delay fans getting to the ground before kick-off. We had it on the trains down there twice and didn't get in til near halftime. I wouldn't be surprised if it'd take 'longer than expected' to get all the fans on the buses and away and then hit loads of traffic. A pub best avoided IMO.
