I can get tickets in with the West Ham fans but I really don't want to do that Depends on what allocation we take, in theory it should make general sale. Someone on here might be able to lend you a spare couple of season ticket numbers.

LGTL Posted 10 August, 2014 Posted 10 August, 2014 We've initially only taken the smaller allocation. Normally take good numbers there so should get more.
Sour Mash Posted 10 August, 2014 Posted 10 August, 2014 We've initially only taken the smaller allocation. Normally take good numbers there so should get more. Has that been confirmed?
Plumstead_Saint Posted 11 August, 2014 Posted 11 August, 2014 I hope so but doubt it. I haven't been able to get tickets the last two seasons. When they move into the Olympic stadium we might get a better allocation.....
stevegrant Posted 11 August, 2014 Posted 11 August, 2014 Has that been confirmed? Yeah, OS article says it's an initial allocation but we can get more if the demand is there.
Sour Mash Posted 11 August, 2014 Posted 11 August, 2014 I hope so but doubt it. I haven't been able to get tickets the last two seasons. When they move into the Olympic stadium we might get a better allocation..... I'm pretty sure it went to General Sale last season and maybe even the season before that. We get a big allocation there.
Plumstead_Saint Posted 11 August, 2014 Posted 11 August, 2014 No - they sold out. I live in SE London, and the last away end tickets on general sale I was able to get for Saints was Loftus Road 2012-13. Could have had craven Cottage boxing day tickets too, but ironically was down in Bursledon visiting my mum for that one. Had no problems getting tickets for Charlton, Millwall, Brentford or Leyton Orient though!

Had no problems getting tickets for Charlton, Millwall, Brentford or Leyton Orient though!No, I'm pretty sure West Ham went on general sale the last two years. SPurs last season didn't even come close to selling out. Chelsea the last two seasons has also gone on general sale. And Fulham last season.
Plumstead_Saint Posted 11 August, 2014 Posted 11 August, 2014 I covered the Fulham game. If you mean 'went on general sale and then sold out within an hour or so, before I was able to get through', then yes you're right. Otherwise you are wrong. I know because I was trying to get ticket for them you see? HTH

Berkshire Saint Posted 11 August, 2014 Posted 11 August, 2014 If I remember rightly didn't Chelsea sell out surprisingly quickly last season due to us taking the lower allocation? At Adkins last game the season before there was plenty of space though.
cmw Posted 12 August, 2014 Posted 12 August, 2014 I have 2 ST numbers free for someone to use for West Ham if they need..?
Griffo Posted 12 August, 2014 Posted 12 August, 2014 I have 2 ST numbers free for someone to use for West Ham if they need..? I need 1 number. Can't PM you.
tartan_saint Posted 13 August, 2014 Posted 13 August, 2014 I need 1 number. Can't PM you. You have a PM.

I know because I was trying to get ticket for them you see? HTH Spurs away definitely was not sold out last season, plenty of empty seats in our end. As was Chelsea the year before (midweek game)
Sour Mash Posted 19 August, 2014 Posted 19 August, 2014 ANy update on how ales are going for this and if we're going to take the full allocation?
Whitey Grandad Posted 19 August, 2014 Posted 19 August, 2014 ANy update on how ales are going for this and if we're going to take the full allocation? I think ales will be going very well.
Sour Mash Posted 19 August, 2014 Posted 19 August, 2014 I think ales will be going very well. Ha, very true, no point me even editing that now.
ladysaint Posted 19 August, 2014 Posted 19 August, 2014 Anyone who ordered tickets online for WHU received theirs yet.
The Saturday Boy Posted 19 August, 2014 Posted 19 August, 2014 Anyone who ordered tickets online for WHU received theirs yet. Nothing here yet, ordered ours on Friday.
stevegrant Posted 19 August, 2014 Posted 19 August, 2014 Anyone who ordered tickets online for WHU received theirs yet. No, which would suggest they seem to be making a habit of posting the tickets in the week immediately before the game. I ordered a Liverpool ticket on the Thursday and they only arrived the following Thursday, three days before the game!
alehouseboys Posted 19 August, 2014 Posted 19 August, 2014 ANy update on how ales are going for this and if we're going to take the full allocation? If we haven't already taken the full allocation I would think West Ham will want the tickets. There was less than 3000 home tickets remaining earlier today. They're doing kids-for-a-quid for this game.
Mattio Posted 20 August, 2014 Posted 20 August, 2014 Went on general sale today, quid for under 16's so makes up for the high adult price at least...
Saint Garrett Posted 20 August, 2014 Posted 20 August, 2014 Went on general sale today, quid for under 16's so makes up for the high adult price at least... Not when you dont have kids!
Mattio Posted 20 August, 2014 Posted 20 August, 2014 Not when you dont have kids! Take your young looking mate and get him to buy the drinks?
Plumstead_Saint Posted 20 August, 2014 Posted 20 August, 2014 Went on general sale today, quid for under 16's so makes up for the high adult price at least... Not so great when you've got 2 kids want to go, and they charge you £43 for the 2nd one Glad I managed to get tickets, but one son has to stay at home cos I can't afford all of us
Dan Posted 20 August, 2014 Posted 20 August, 2014 Not so great when you've got 2 kids want to go, and they charge you £43 for the 2nd one Glad I managed to get tickets, but one son has to stay at home cos I can't afford all of us What are you talking about? You can buy as many kids as you want as long as they have their own registered customer number.
Plumstead_Saint Posted 20 August, 2014 Posted 20 August, 2014 ?????? Well they wouldn't sell away tickets over the phone, and the online app insisted on charging full price for my 8 year old son, with his own registered number. so I had to cancel it.
Plumstead_Saint Posted 20 August, 2014 Posted 20 August, 2014 Cheers for the heads up Dan - tried it again now and got one more ok. Weird it wouldn't work this morning?? Happy son now.
ianthesaint Posted 21 August, 2014 Posted 21 August, 2014 Got a spare for WHU £43 face value. Will take £40 for it. Meet Saturday or can post.
Dan Posted 21 August, 2014 Posted 21 August, 2014 Cheers for the heads up Dan - tried it again now and got one more ok. Weird it wouldn't work this morning?? Happy son now. Good to hear!
The boy done well Posted 24 August, 2014 Posted 24 August, 2014 Got 4 concessions available (2 over 65's and 2 under 16's) at cost or near offer. £25x2 and £1x2 plus club's admin fee of £2 per ticket. PM me if interested or supply email address or mobile no. Prefer to offload all together. Must be Saints fans. Decided to go on holiday instead!
Mattio Posted 27 August, 2014 Posted 27 August, 2014 Where is everyone drinking then? I was thinking the Spoons near Liverpool Street but is there anywhere else?
Saint_Randell Posted 27 August, 2014 Posted 27 August, 2014 Quick question, if my son is 16 will he still be eligible for the Under 16's tickets??
Saint_Randell Posted 27 August, 2014 Posted 27 August, 2014 As long as he looks under 18 he'll be fine Cheers
Saint_Randell Posted 27 August, 2014 Posted 27 August, 2014 Saint_Randell's nipper: Hahahaha Just wondered how strict they were on the ID checks seeing as there's such a price difference thats all
hypochondriac Posted 27 August, 2014 Posted 27 August, 2014 If anyone has any spares I will gladly take them. I need two.
SaintMilesie Posted 29 August, 2014 Posted 29 August, 2014 The spoons is Hamilton Hall on Liverpool Street Stationl, good shout as only 15mins on the tube from here.
Sour Mash Posted 29 August, 2014 Posted 29 August, 2014 The spoons is Hamilton Hall on Liverpool Street Stationl, good shout as only 15mins on the tube from here. Yes, with the whole of one of the world's greatest cities at your disposal, Wetherspoons at a train station is probably the best shout.
CB Fry Posted 29 August, 2014 Posted 29 August, 2014 Yes, with the whole of one of the world's greatest cities at your disposal, Wetherspoons at a train station is probably the best shout. A post that did make me genuinely laugh out loud.
hypochondriac Posted 29 August, 2014 Posted 29 August, 2014 Still on general sale I think Hypo Thanks mate. Picked a couple up this morning.
benjii Posted 29 August, 2014 Posted 29 August, 2014 If you're going to go somewhere as awful as the East End you should go all in and head to a disgusting and rough boozer, not mince about a Wetherspoons in the deserted City or cower by Waterloo until the last minute. Get down Green Street / Barking Road and obtain a macabre social insight that will, ukrimately, remind you how lucky you are.
