ben05 Posted 28 February, 2012 Share Posted 28 February, 2012 Oh Dear. Only 2000 tickets. No chance of general sale. Anyone know the possibility of the bottom tier being opened for us? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRM Posted 28 February, 2012 Share Posted 28 February, 2012 Oh Dear. Only 2000 tickets. No chance of general sale. Anyone know the possibility of the bottom tier being opened for us? the only reason why they won't open it is on police advice or if Millwall can't be bothered with the extra stewarding required, they have used it before, i remember league cup game v Liverpool as an example, if we do sell out quickly and they haven't opened the lower tier you could email both clubs to ask why not http://www.footballgroundguide.com/millwall/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ben05 Posted 28 February, 2012 Share Posted 28 February, 2012 been twice....not once was the bottom tier open and it was not a major problem getting a ticket Thats interesting. I supose Watford made general sale and that was around the same number. Mind you having the "Family section" at Watford ment loads of people bought a adult and a child (because they had too) and because a child was only a fiver no one sat there. Big Waste for Watford doing themselves out of revenue. Anyway, hopfully this will make general sale. I’m hoping Milwall will win a few in the lead up to us and settle for mid table mediocrity.

stevegrant Posted 28 February, 2012 Share Posted 28 February, 2012 I emailed the Millwall ticket office about the possibility of getting the lower tier as well if the upper tier sells out and their (speedy) response was Dear Steve, There has been no confirmation between Millwall and Southampton regarding the opening of the lower tier at this time. Kind regards So I guess it's a "cross that bridge when we come to it" scenario. Get that first block of tickets sold and then go from there.

This Charming Man Posted 28 February, 2012 Share Posted 28 February, 2012 Anyone who wants one will get one as long as you're quick off the mark. Our fans are a bunch of saps and will all come down with the Millwall flu that weekend anyway, hence our poor attendance there in the FA Cup recently. West Ham and Watford all made general sale, see no reason why this won't either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess if we sell out the upper tier quickly, suggesting we'll be able to put a fair few in the lower tier, making extra stewarding etc worthwhile, they'll probably open it.

Appy Posted 28 February, 2012 Share Posted 28 February, 2012 Would be mental if we didn't sell out for this one, top of the league and a London away game.

All the normal tickets for Watford were gone by the time they went on general sale, with only the family ones remaining (1 adult + 1 child); while the allocation for WHU was 50% bigger than the current one for Millwall.

Aw, tough luck there buddy. It's not all doom and gloom though - there's still a few seats for Chris de Burgh next month. Only trouble is it clashes with once in a lifetime opportunity to watch the mighty Barnsley Football Club play at St Mary's. Toss you for it?

I never felt Chris De Burgh followed up the success fo lady in Red with anything ground breaking so not one for me i'm afraid.

Although I can't see that happening. The 1x ticket per ST will mess up my well laid plans...! I was in the market for ten tickets, not bloomin two! The bottom tier would certainly help to facilitate my JCL buddies, if not I guess il have to sling them into the home end! (are you reading O.B/MFC/SFC?!) Train beers - absolute doddle from waterloo - decent stadium - St.Paddys day celebrations in Borough market - a perfect day One of the best away days IMO, lively, easy, drunkable... was wondering about unchallenged outside the ground last time, checked out the local bookies, chippy etc... it aint scary or dangerous, just very heavily policed. One thing Ive always thought Millwall should do is open the away bars post match for 30mins or so... instead of having to wait for your train bunched up in the cage, it would be nicer to exchange some cash for gassy bottles of carlsberg whilst waiting...

Sounded reasonable until your last paragraph. What's wrong with just going on the beer all day and having a laugh, whilst not looking like a complete mong? Millwall in the cup was probably my best away game of the season so far, and there have been some good ones. Gave the O.B the swerve by jumping off at Woking and getting a train 4 minutes later, took us into Waterloo 5 platforms up from the police waiting for the Southampton train. Was nice being able to roam freely around London instead of being pushed around all day. Quality drinking session before and after football.
