Dragon_man Posted 4 January, 2022 Posted 4 January, 2022 Does anyone know when these will go on sale and whether they will make it to season ticket holders? Normally the key dates are given but nothing listed. (reason I ask is that I have family near Manchester and will arrange things around a visit there if I can get tickets)
nta786 Posted 4 January, 2022 Posted 4 January, 2022 Usually details are released a month before, so would expect details on both early next week. As for the criteria, away tickets always go onto sale to Season Ticket holders with "x" number of away games first? If your question is whether it will go down to sale to season ticket holders who hasn't been to any away games yet, I'd like to think yes to both. My prediction is both go to sale all the way down to members really, Spurs would have sold out just to STHs if it wasn't a midweek fixture because getting there is generally a pain. From memory, Palace/Chelsea/West Ham all went to general sale, but Arsenal sold out at season ticket holder stage.

I am a new season ticket holder, but no away games yet, first one will be at Wolves on the 15th. Spurs is a challenge being midweek but given family ties, Man Utd will make a for an easy weekend away 1

nta786 Posted 24 January, 2022 Posted 24 January, 2022 United sold out to premium members, whilst Spurs went on general sale today. Currently about 80 tickets left for Spurs which I expect will go soon!

Unbelievable numbers really, we extended the Man Utd allocation to the maximum 3100, I didn't think we'd sell that for a 12.30 kick off, double what we usually take to Man City, does everyone want to see Ronaldo before he retires? Looks like Spurs is sold out now (3000) worth noting according to the revised South West Railways timetable last train back is 22.35 from Waterloo to Southampton, no chance of making that if you stay for the final whistle. Absolute nightmare place to get to by car. Top support considering both games live on TV. Edited 24 January, 2022 by JRM 4
The Cat Posted 24 January, 2022 Posted 24 January, 2022 I'm giving Spurs a swerve because of the travel. Every season I go through the same thought process that it's just bizarre to have a stadium in London that is so poorly served by easily accessible tubes or trains. Going to Man Utd though.

But yeah, found the timetable, but changes on a weekly basis. I'd think if we have 3000 going up, they're going to sort something... hopefully, as you say, Spurs to Waterloo in half hour would take some doing, presume its a bloody 8pm KO?

Pamplemousse Posted 26 January, 2022 Posted 26 January, 2022 Going to both. Live in London so the midweek London games are a godsend for being able to get tickets as I'm not a STH. I really want to go to Brentford away as I can walk there from where I live but I know I won't stand a chance

Never going to happen. Club will always prioritise season ticket holders as they are a more stable revenue stream

Why? That is the very definition of unfair. That would mean that the same people would go to all the games whilst those who for various reasons could only manage one or two games a season wouldn’t get a look in. Away supporters are of no financial benefit to the club.

Away supporters are of no financial benefit to the club. I'd like to think the same 1k-1.5k or so do go to every away game perhaps? I don't think it is an issue this season thankfully as every away game has gone to members this season except Arsenal, but perhaps for the future if demand for away games rise, it would be nice to recognise members who've gone to say at least 5 away games to get priority for those away games in the 2nd half of the season once enough away matches have been played. Or, it would be nice if the club kept back say 300 tickets guaranteed for members (when it eventually comes to them) and keep the format as it currently is.
Saint Garrett Posted 27 January, 2022 Posted 27 January, 2022 It's one of the key benefits of being a STH. And probably one of the main reasons STH's buy a ST. I don't have a problem if STH's get priority of away games and key cup games. 1
Noodles34 Posted 30 January, 2022 Posted 30 January, 2022 SW trains are being a bit cagey on the train situation, saying they won't decide until nearer the time

Now home working has ended and commuters are returning you'd have thought trains would return to normal timetables, I remember when the last train back from Waterloo was 1.05am. Still tickets available for Spurs by the way, "strictly seated only" block that you can only buy if you call up, not sure if they are doing that as rest of away section is "safe standing"

The the first time we played at new ground, there was a large queue to get onto underground at Tottenham Hale, it’s easier to get train from Northumberland Park down to either Liverpool St or Stratford and then tube to Waterloo
Saint Garrett Posted 7 February, 2022 Posted 7 February, 2022 It’s an absolute pig to get in and out of at any time. Amazing that a new stadium has such dreadful transport links.
Sir Ralph Posted 8 February, 2022 Posted 8 February, 2022 Anyone got a spare ticket for tomorrow at spurs? Extra mate who wants to come

I reckon that travelling out east to Stratford to come back in on the tube to Waterloo wouldn't be worth it either. The best bet for Waterloo would be get on the Victoria line either Tottenham Hale/Seven Sisters then go Oxford Circus - Bakerloo to Waterloo.
Graffito Posted 8 February, 2022 Posted 8 February, 2022 Are you sure trains don’t go from Northumberland Park to Liverpool St? Could be wrong but I thought they did, via Tottenham Hale. If so, comes down to which of Northumberland Park and White Hart Lane has the longest queues or most frequent services. That I can’t say, it’s quicker for me to walk home that use either.
Saint Garrett Posted 8 February, 2022 Posted 8 February, 2022 So walk to Seven Sisters or Tottenham Hale then ? Pretty sure I walked to SS last time I went there before the pandemic.

In theory you could get a train from Northumberland to Tottenham Hale then catch either a Gatwick Express or Stansted Express 1 stop to Liv Street. However the oyster/contactless doesn't cover this route despite being in LDN and tickets are £20 so really not worth it - although I highly doubt you'll find an inspector on the brief 5 min train journey.
NorthLondonSFC Posted 8 February, 2022 Posted 8 February, 2022 Anyone looking to make that last train I would avoid WHL station unless you can leave the game early. Not worth the risk as you can be waiting up to an hour to get on a train there.

I've walked to seven sisters a few times, if you're reasonably fit it's not too far for a brisk walk down Tottenham High road (30 mins) but not sure it would save enough time rather than just queueing at white Hart Lane.

100%Red&White Posted 9 February, 2022 Posted 9 February, 2022 I guess if everyone piles on at Tottenham Hale anyone waiting at Seven Sisters may struggle to board when it pulls in as further down the Victoria Line?

WIll be aiming for Tottenham Hale after the game personally. Don't forget you have to walk all the way around that massive Sainsburys too. 1
FboroSaint21 Posted 9 February, 2022 Posted 9 February, 2022 Guessing none of you will be hanging around for a beer afterwards? I'll let the crowds subside and leave later as my last train is later from Wloo.
