LGTL Posted 20 August, 2011 Posted 20 August, 2011 Has anyone who got them online earlier this week actually received them yet? First time ever that I haven't got them inside 1 day, let alone 3. Looks like the postman has taken a liking to them.

StDunko Posted 20 August, 2011 Posted 20 August, 2011 Going to pick up two tickets for this one before kick off today. First away game of the season for me, can't wait. Hope we get around 2k up there.
saint_jas Posted 20 August, 2011 Posted 20 August, 2011 Has anyone who got them online earlier this week actually received them yet? First time ever that I haven't got them inside 1 day, let alone 3. Looks like the postman has taken a liking to them. I was wondering myself whether they would be here today. Hopefully get them on Monday as I am down in London rest of week.
JRM Posted 21 August, 2011 Posted 21 August, 2011 what colour saints in please Blue. anyone know if tickets available on the day?
This Charming Man Posted 22 August, 2011 Posted 22 August, 2011 what colour saints in please Either red or yellow. HTH.
iansouthstander Posted 22 August, 2011 Posted 22 August, 2011 what colour saints in please As our colours don't clash , I reckon we'll play in red and white . Seem to remember previous games there in red n white. Don't know for sure mind.
Dan Posted 22 August, 2011 Posted 22 August, 2011 Any idea on how many we have sold so far? Any less than 1500 is poor.
Appy Posted 22 August, 2011 Posted 22 August, 2011 Didn't someone say we had been given a second batch? Or am i going mental?
ericofarabia Posted 22 August, 2011 Posted 22 August, 2011 Last time I went to Leicester it was for SKP's debut ... 2-2? but it looked like SKP and Beatts were going to tear the Prem a new one. We went drinking in The Counting House ? a sort of old mill ( or even maybe counting house!!), which is about midway between the ground (when did it stop being The Crisp Packet Stadium? and The Rugby Ground. With it being a nice day it was great sitting outside, big open beer garden at front of the pub,and just across the road was a large Supermarket which quite a few fans used to buy Supermarket price beer and crisps / sarnies etc and drink in the beer garden. The pub was quite packed inside, had Sky,seemed understaffed but the girls were good looking though!! Can't remember what beers they had on. Pretty friendly locals both before and after the game, no hassle, but that was before our famous yoof had started making a name for themselves, so things might be different nowadays. Have a great day and feel what it is like being an away fan at SMS - it is virtually indentical.
tttdcs Posted 22 August, 2011 Posted 22 August, 2011 Cheapest Train ticket i've found is £56 return to Southampton Central....anyone got any cheaper? ****ing rip off. £54 (£28+£26) Soton central 8.00 to waterloo etc, advance booking only it looks like.
Saint Garrett Posted 22 August, 2011 Posted 22 August, 2011 Anyone received tickets for this yet ? We ordered them last Wednesday.
branksomesaint Posted 22 August, 2011 Posted 22 August, 2011 Still not received out tickets, which we brought on Weds. Swung by the Ticket Office on Sat afternoon and asked if they'd been posted as if not I'd pick then up now. The girl checked and said they'd been printed and so she assumed they'd been posted. She told me if I'd not received them by Weds to phone up and they'd check with Leicester what they wanted to do about a re-issue. It's all a bit strange as the money came out of my bank a/c on Weds and usually the tickets are with you within two days.
rednrednredandwhite Posted 22 August, 2011 Posted 22 August, 2011 emailed the ticket office today and got this reply, The Leicester tickets purchased last week were either posted on Friday or will be posted today. so we should all get our tickets tomorrow, maybe
saintscottofthenortham Posted 22 August, 2011 Posted 22 August, 2011 Went and got mine today. Looking forward to it. COYS!
red&white56 Posted 22 August, 2011 Posted 22 August, 2011 Ordered tickets today - no indication if there were many left or not. Training it from Sussex £43.0 return, an advanced fare booking. First game of the season (not counting the ML tournament), so I hope our good run continues!
sperm_john Posted 23 August, 2011 Posted 23 August, 2011 ordered mine today =) ...dorris on the phone couldn't give me any idea how it was selling which I thought was quite silly, all she had to say was 'average' 'busy on the phones' or 'not as many as you'd think' ...how hard can it be
Ian the Red Posted 24 August, 2011 Posted 24 August, 2011 Anyone know of reasonable car parking near the ground?
adethorne Posted 24 August, 2011 Posted 24 August, 2011 Anyone know of reasonable car parking near the ground?canoe club 50 yds from ground if early enough or rugby club
Hemel Saint Posted 24 August, 2011 Posted 24 August, 2011 Anyone know of reasonable car parking near the ground? try this site... http://www.footballgroundguide.com/leicester_city/ >>> Allow yourself a little extra time to get to the ground as traffic does tend to get quite congested near the stadium. Plenty of street parking to be found (especially around the Upperton Road area and on streets running off the A5460 by the railway bridge. It is then around a 15 minute walk to the stadium), although as Greg Barclay warns; 'don't double park as the traffic wardens tend to have a field day at every match'. Alternatively you can park at Leicester Rugby Club (£3) which is a ten minute walk away from the stadium.
saintchris23 Posted 25 August, 2011 Posted 25 August, 2011 Has anyone actually received their tickets after booking online yet?
View From The Top Posted 25 August, 2011 Posted 25 August, 2011 Has anyone actually received their tickets after booking online yet? Yes. Booked Sat' evening, came Tuesday.

Ian the Red Posted 26 August, 2011 Posted 26 August, 2011 Thanks Hemel Saints and Adethorne, info much much appreciated! COYR!
adethorne Posted 26 August, 2011 Posted 26 August, 2011 on reflection canoe club is about 300 yds away just before you cross over river. parked there a few times, no probs, apart from when we won in fa cup, but even the coaches got attacked then
CFSFC Posted 26 August, 2011 Posted 26 August, 2011 Would of thought we'd shift a few hundred on the day 2800 would be a very good turnout.
Griffo Posted 26 August, 2011 Posted 26 August, 2011 ****ing hell. Didn't think we had even sold our initial allocation. That is fantastic.
saints_is_the_south Posted 26 August, 2011 Posted 26 August, 2011 Don't recall the club even advertising a 2nd batch being on sale. Should be a cracking atmosphere.
pap Posted 26 August, 2011 Posted 26 August, 2011 Has anyone actually received their tickets after booking online yet? Mine turned up on Tuesday too (ordered Monday).
shirleysfc Posted 27 August, 2011 Posted 27 August, 2011 Which pub are people heading to today? The Counting House?
