    Open for ticket sales now

    East stand upper and lower more or less sold out

    Ponty very few seats remaining

    West still couple of hundred

    We should have sent Newcastle the Extra tickets for west

    Said on facebook that east stand upper tier is sold out. And they expect the ponty to do same.

    Now if you changed "way" to "bang", at least Ched would have bought a ticket!

    You have to have a selling history to buy tickets so l doubt it, lve seen those in the ticket office turn away folk with the strongest Barnsley accents because they haven't got any purchasing history.

    Always wondered what happens if it's your first game you have ever been to

    Do they turn away new supporters ?

    Take in I.D and something with an address on to prove you're from the area. I don't know what they do for folk that travel from outside of the borough. Fair play to them they Marshall it well, they have 20 years history on the system. There's some neutrals coming over from N. Ireland for the game they've tweeted the box office and they can't get tickets due to their purchase history.

    Be carnage.

    I can remember when we played blunderland in 08? And that was all ticket.

    Fine with tickets being sold in our end there. I don't think Newcastle will give us a Millwall at Wembley moment with both sets of fans so close to eachother tomorrow night.

    You could have bought a ticket for, say Northampton in the cup and then they've got your history.

    I'd say they'll only turn you away from an all ticket fixture.

    I once saw a chap get turned away from the box office whilst trying to buy a ticket for Leeds at home one time, because the only history they could find for him was buying a ticket for the Leeds home game 3 years before.

    Didn't realise that.

    If that's the case then how do new fans come and watch?

    Oh dear. Is that always the case then for all-ticket games?

    Obviously, people with a booking history can book more than one ticket and give them to friends/family, but for complete neutrals and new fans who don't know anyone it's a non-starter. wow.
