gio1saints Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 (edited) Got my ticket for Block 142 safe standing just now and it says enter via Red Zone Entrance M. Anybody know where that is in relation to the the coach park? ( yes I’m travelling with the official Saints bingo buses - got my marker pen sharpened my blankie freshly laundered ( for my knees it’s quite a trip ) polished my slippers, gave the thermos and sandwich box a good clean up so I’m all practically sorted, just must remember to take my medications and a beanie hat as it might be a bit chilly out there. And my throat lozenges of course - Two packs - plus some paracetamol for the sore throat and headache that I will have. Oh and must not forget the ticket so it’s on the lobby mantelpiece in my house if I forget it can somebody remind me that’s where it is. 😄 Edited May 21 by gio1saints 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Ralph Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 (edited) 2 hours ago, OldNick said: I think what has happened some Leeds fans bought memebrship for their game at SMS and now have purchase history, hence them now being able to get tickets. Were there many in the crowd in the home game can you recall. Personally I wouldnt want to be in the away section as Im sure the agrgo wont be worth it Had to ring the ticket office about something else and they said that anyone with a Yorkshire postcode or with limited games (specifically leeds) had been vetted and not sent tickets. Sounds a lot of hot air to me. Edited May 21 by Sir Ralph 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why people are getting upset about these plastic fans is beyond me. They deserve mocking and derision for not being 'proper' supporters, not moaning that they used our system. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nordic Saint Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Leeds still haven't sold all theirs. I suppose with 15,000 of them claiming to be in the Saints end, the Leeds end will be half empty.

Saint Matty 76 Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Do we think it's safe to assume the entire lower tier would be standing? The website screwing us out of an hour on Sunday meant we couldn't get behind the goal so we're in Block 140. A little worried as our website states that's the "family area", but I'd assume you wouldn't get lower tier tickets to sit down right? Or is that wishful thinking?

Depends if they enforce their own regulations. It's printed on the ticket that persistent standing is not tolerated - apart from in the safe standing area. It's also in their ground regulations.

The Kraken Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 2 hours ago, sfc4prem said: Are they at general sale yet? No, nowhere near it, their sales policy was stricter than Saints and they won’t get anywhere near general sale. Phases one and two of the club's ticket sales for the Championship finale on Sunday, against Southampton, allowed purchases by season ticket holders, away season ticket holders, seasonal hospitality members and home and away tracker members with nine-plus game attendance this season. Now that the deadlines for those phases have passed, the next phase will allow home and away tracker membership holders with five-plus games to purchase a ticket. Tickets will be sold on a first-come-first-served basis to all My Leeds Members who bought a ticket for five or more games in total across the 2023/24 season. The tracker data includes all home league, home cup, away league and away cup fixtures in the season but excludes the play-off semi-finals.

Saint Keef Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 An extremely long shot I know, but if anyone is wondering how they can get rid of two (or even one) adult tickets, I would still be extremely interested. My email is wilburykeef@gmail.com I'm happy to meet at Wembley or arrange to pick up if reasonably local. (Hampshire/Berkshire). Thank you.

I guess sponsors and staff were all eligible to X number of tickets. I think 3000 for both clubs was mentioned somewhere - not sure how accurate that figure is. Many won't have been taken. You are not allowed to sell them, so there is no point in taking them unless you have someone to give them to. Great news for those that missed out on Monday. Good luck folks.
