Red Alert Posted 18 July, 2015 Posted 18 July, 2015 Tickets for the home end are on sale on Vitesse website this morning. Got a couple already in block 122 as a back up. Only a tenner each.
um pahars Posted 18 July, 2015 Posted 18 July, 2015 Tickets for the home end are on sale on Vitesse website this morning. Got a couple already in block 122 as a back up. Only a tenner each. So looks as though we will only be getting 1200 as home tickets being sold in all parts of the ground.
Red Alert Posted 18 July, 2015 Posted 18 July, 2015 So looks as though we will only be getting 1200 as home tickets being sold in all parts of the ground. Looks that way. Also with them selling already means we must know how many we are getting so would expect news from the club today at least.
Red Alert Posted 18 July, 2015 Posted 18 July, 2015 The fact they are openly selling tickets to non members means they must be expecting a low crowd themselves. I woks think they could have worked with us to give us a full goal end. Doesn't look like that is the case at all though.
alehouseboys Posted 18 July, 2015 Posted 18 July, 2015 I hope the club at least asked for an extra allocation and that we now give them just 5% in return. It does seem short-sightd of Vitesse if they are expecting an attendance well short of capacity, there's now the prospect of Saints fans buying (before or from over-priced touts in Arnhem) home tickets and the potential that brings. Let's hope it's easy to find bars that'll be showing the game over there.

Red Alert Posted 18 July, 2015 Posted 18 July, 2015 No. I have asked post to English address. You can pick them up from the ground but wasn't sure if there could be problems with that on the day.
for_heaven's_Saint Posted 18 July, 2015 Posted 18 July, 2015 Cool, thanks. I guess we won't know until the day how strict they'll be with checking if you're a home or away fan.
Shroppie Posted 18 July, 2015 Posted 18 July, 2015 I gave an English address. Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk Wasn't sure they'd post to UK so said collect at ground. Hopefully won't need it anyway, just insurance! Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk
dubai_phil Posted 18 July, 2015 Posted 18 July, 2015 So far at least 6 of our Dubai Saints massive (and 4 more applying for vacation time this week) are heading back for the two matches. What a logistical mare THAT is. (BTW Cologne is only 2 hours from Arnhem if you can't find closer flights) Luckily we have some Dutch based FB pals between us so if our scrounging of mates ST's and our Memberships don't get us access to tickets we can go Dutch. (Interesting the ENG lang\uage page on the Vitesse web site says tickets go on sale on 21st whereas the Dutch version says on sale today. Out of interest how many did we actually take to Bucharest? Everyone talked about going but our allocated end was only half full, the rest was just somewhere to give our flags a good washing in the rain!
marc_saint Posted 18 July, 2015 Posted 18 July, 2015 (edited) What row are yours in? Row 1?? Yeah mine said row 1 as well. Seat 70 Unreserved seating maybe? Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk Edited 18 July, 2015 by marc_saint

Everyone talked about going but our allocated end was only half full, the rest was just somewhere to give our flags a good washing in the rain! Around 2,300, all that they gave us. I think there may have been a safety issue with the crumbling terraces, any more it would probably have collapsed! Still not as iffy as the 'terracing' that was specially erected for us when we went to Limerick over 30 years ago!
Sour Mash Posted 18 July, 2015 Posted 18 July, 2015 Probably not best to shout about buying home end tickets on a public forum.
Saint_clark Posted 18 July, 2015 Posted 18 July, 2015 What the heck is "barcode" needed when signing up on Vitesses site?
saintrich Posted 18 July, 2015 Posted 18 July, 2015 "Sometimes" is the only accurate answer to that. Thanks I guess that's more hopeful than 'never'. I have 4 league and 2 cup, so hoping that'll count as 6.

Nevermind found it, but there doesn't appear to be an England or United Kingdom option when putting in your address, maybe they got wise already?

holepuncture Posted 18 July, 2015 Posted 18 July, 2015 Probably not best to shout about buying home end tickets on a public forum. indeed, website now not letting me book tickets!
Saint_clark Posted 18 July, 2015 Posted 18 July, 2015 indeed, website now not letting me book tickets! I literally just completed my order, I think you just got caught in the language trap like me.
N6Saint Posted 18 July, 2015 Posted 18 July, 2015 Booked tickets in the Vitesse End as a back up. I went for block 120, which is the halfway line in the East stand, lower tier. EUR 16.50. Bargain.
Mouldy Coat Posted 18 July, 2015 Posted 18 July, 2015 Fook it lets all get tickets in block 120-122 then!
Saint_clark Posted 18 July, 2015 Posted 18 July, 2015 Yeah i'm in 122 as well, will still be getting away tickets if possible and then selling on the home end ones.

Red Alert Posted 18 July, 2015 Posted 18 July, 2015 (edited) I found it now! You pick Large Briitaine from the country list right? EDIT, if you are using google translate, if you are using the dutch list its Groot britanie. Edited 18 July, 2015 by Red Alert
Mouldy Coat Posted 18 July, 2015 Posted 18 July, 2015 Sorted block 122, you just need to register takes 5 minutes, it's in Dutch but easy enough to work out (or use babblefish online translator) 16.50 euros BINGO
Mouldy Coat Posted 18 July, 2015 Posted 18 July, 2015 indeed, website now not letting me book tickets! There is no restriction on the website
keypads Posted 18 July, 2015 Posted 18 July, 2015 Just bought 3 tickets, block 122 row 2 as back up. I'm picking them up at the ground
hypochondriac Posted 18 July, 2015 Posted 18 July, 2015 I can't seem to find United Kingdom as an option when I register?
Mouldy Coat Posted 18 July, 2015 Posted 18 July, 2015 (edited) It's something like groot britaine - just got another 4 tickets in 122 row 5. They do post to UK as well. Probably best option in case they start putting restrictions on UK based fans turning up at the ground for tickets in the home end Edited 18 July, 2015 by Mouldy Coat

When I looked this morning, which was almost exactly (totally coincidentally) when they went on sale it was row 1 seat number 100.

SCF08 Posted 18 July, 2015 Posted 18 July, 2015 When they see or hear you are a Southampton supporter they won't let you in and take you ticket away. Could also be not safe...they do have a hooligan following, so be carefull wich stand you go on
Jack Posted 18 July, 2015 Posted 18 July, 2015 Flights booked, Ibiza - Amsterdam only €190. In and out in 24 hours. Can't f*cking wait!

Sounds like enough of us around block 120 - 122 anyway. If they don't let me in I will find a pub, at least I know I tried everything to get in the game. Its a £10 risk I - and many others seem willing to take.

Mouldy Coat Posted 18 July, 2015 Posted 18 July, 2015 (edited) Keep your nut down going in and you'll be fine. They won't be able to do much if there are a load of us (which there will be) they will either section The area off with stewards or realise before hand and make better provisions for saints fans. As previous poster said for 10 quid, what's the risk!!? Edited 18 July, 2015 by Mouldy Coat
