Just seen on the official site that our allocation has sold out. Here comes the moan. I've been on the phone since 0900 this morning to buy mine without any luck and I can take that, just. It's not the clubs fault that I have to ring off once in a while and leave the queue because of work. However my question is thus. Where has our allocation gone? We had between 31000 and 33000 depending on who tells you and we have approx 18000 season ticket holders at the club. There goes that amount, so we're left with 11000 to 13000 remaining. I cannot see that whomever may be a gold, silver or whatever colour and/or stub holders to any of the prior games are not season ticket holders also, or not 13000 of them at any rate. I do hope the club have kept to their promise of selling one ticket per season ticket/stub etc Perhaps it was my blind naievity, but I was fully expecting tickets to go on sale tomorrow for general sale and was positive that I would be able to get mine today on my allotted day, to the point that I turned down a ticket from a scalp yesterday. The Mrs is going to be furious, we cancelled a weekend away so as I could go to the game!! :banghead: |

Just go down anyway and hopefully you can buy one off a tout at face value just before kick off. |

Sorry for you mate, I was worried for a while but am one of the lucky ones. Depending on your financial situation, you might be able to afford the ones of some sites, but they are like £280 each, like I say, I dont know what you can afford or are willing to. If your lucky you might hear of somebody selling a couple, I know my friend and his dad want a pair but chances are its going to have to be a ridiculous price or the TV. Good luck bud **thumbup |

Just to really rub it in, a friend of a friend, a non season ticket holder who hasn't been to many matches this year has purchased from the club, not a scalp.......FIVE tickets. I've just rang the club and guess what....? The ticket office is closed....two hours early....after being told to ring back all day. Premier League? :LMAO: |

The ticket office is NOT closed. however there's no more tickets for telephone orders and they've stopped people joining the queue. |

Since posting it, the main site has changed it on the tickets page. They do say now though that they will not be accepting telephone bookings and with the ticket office now shut, I am assuming that they are sold out. I'll still go down as I live in Hertfordshire and see whats about. I despise touts and will not pay over the odds for a ticket, would rather drink the money and soak up the pre game atmosphere. Am still not happy with the club or the way they have gone about this, fingers, toes and nuts crossed for another Wembley visit for them to redeem themselves :dancer: |

If you do the math you can see why tickets sell quickly: ST Holders 18,000 Sponsors say 2,000 BCFC & Corporate 2,500 + That leaves 10,000 or less for stub holders, colored BCFC away fans etc. On this basis I would have expected there were not any tickets available for general sale. |

"coloured away fans" are season ticket holders, you have to be a sthto qualify for the coloured away scheme. There are about 14500 season ticket holders. |

My son queued for 8 hours today. He was one of the last to get his ticket. Look on his face, priceless. Just picked him up from ground about 10pm ish. I'm sure his late grandad is looking down on him. KRO |
