Any idea on numbers or if they’ll get to “no points” sale?

Bordeauxclaret · Post by **Bordeauxclaret** » Thu Dec 14, 2017 5:00 pm

Nobody is allowed to know how many. It’s top secret.

Given the statement from Manchester City when they released them for home fans, we are going to get considerably more than the 3,000 available to us for the league game.

claretdj · Post by **claretdj** » Thu Dec 14, 2017 5:06 pm

I would of thought around 7000 tickets.. why the heck is this day n age we don't announce the allocations is just crazy.

aggi · Post by **aggi** » Thu Dec 14, 2017 5:10 pm

I did email the club to ask why they don't give more detail on ticket allocations. They didn't bother replying so the policy will have to remain a mystery.

Didn't someone say that they'd seen on City's website that the middle and upper tiers of the South stand were unavailable to home fans? This suggests we've taken our full allocation of 7/8 thousand. Ridiculous that Burnley can't just come out and tell us this.

I posted that, was announced when City confirmed the prices for home fans.

I'm presuming you emailed the SLO. You should have got a response.

Who/what is the SLO? I emailed the ticket office as it was about tickets.

Hopefully sell out. No excuse at that price. Especially as many of us cant make utd or huddersfield.

MACCA · Post by **MACCA** » Thu Dec 14, 2017 6:17 pm

Yes was informed tickets would be about £15.
Great price structure there from City to be fair, however even at that price, not sure 8k ( if that's what we have taken ) will be sold. We play them too often now.

Be great if it was just a 90 minute party, not often you can have a day out like this, and who knows maybe even an upset that's talked about for decades to come.

cricketfieldclarets · Post by **cricketfieldclarets** » Thu Dec 14, 2017 6:21 pm

Go at them like chelsea away. Start vokes, barnes, westwood, maybe even wells.

jrgbfc · Post by **jrgbfc** » Thu Dec 14, 2017 6:28 pm

I think we'll sell out, as has been mentioned plenty of people missed out on United and Huddersfield myself included. About time we had a proper rendition of Sean Dyche's claret and blue army as well!

Will a season ticket holder be able to buy several tickets or is it 1 ticket per each season ticket holder?

Box is dirt cheap for this game

Does anyone know if you can use an over 65’s clarets number to purchase an adult ticket seeing as they are the same price?

cheap tickets, a few thousand Burnley fans on the lash all day Saturday in Manchester city centre, what's not to like about that.

Unlikely city will lose at home, but you never know.

UTC NNN.

Unless I'm missing something (which is a distinct possibility) do tickets go on general sale to season ticket holders online during the second half of our home game against Spurs, 7pm Saturday 23rd?

If so what numpty comes up with these timings?

If you are a season ticket holder for the first to second time and under 3000 points do you stop watching the match to log into the website to buy your ticket?

Possibly an oversight that the Spurs game kicks off at 5.30pm.

Probably indicates that they're not selling well.

ClaretTony · Post by **ClaretTony** » Mon Dec 18, 2017 5:19 pm

Club have now confirmed that we have received an allocation of 7,600 and have changed some of the sale dates.

5,000 points as previous, but no 3,000 date, straight to season ticket holders and then general sale

All sale dates have been updated at

Looks that way but with Christmas, Spurs, United, Hudds and Liverpool in the space of just over a week that’s some outlay!!

This could be well timed then, I've been informed I can't make it up to the Utd home game in January, so I could make this one of my January games instead then.

You need to login to the online ticketing site and you can check your points there.

Maybe because there are so many tickets left that they know that you'd get tickets easily when they go on sale to ST holders (without any points requirement) so they are being customer friendly.

EDIT - or maybe the fact that the omline system is showing tickets available for people with 3000 points, although this doesn't match with the latest info from the club which stated that the 3000 points category was being dropped.

Normally yeah but because we have nearly 8k tickets you get top tier and middle but another section to the side
