Under 21 international

Post by Funkydrummer » Thu Feb 06, 2020 10:40 pm

..... on 30th March.

I can ring the ticket office, but does anyone know if you can book your own seat if it's in The Bob Lord Stand ?

I have just checked online and my normal seat has been sold so, it would appear that, if your seat is still available, you should be able to get it.

It's a free for all, metaphorically speaking.

McNeil playing at home should be special.

I don't think most seats have been made available yet?

Unless the FA are selling certain stands?

Why end cheaper tickets yesterday
We are clearly not going to get a "big" crowd which, in itself ,is a bit disappointing
Not sure if on TV, but if so large empty sections seen within the ground will not be a good advert for us to stage future games

Might be why we're trying to sell the stands that are most visible to the TV cameras first! I still think there'll be a decent crowd. It's still 6 weeks before the game, lots of people will buy late/last minute.

Seems to me that ticket sales are going well at this early stage.

Great price structure initially of £10 & £1

Shame it's a monday night when the kids are at school, or I think the crowd could have been 10-15k

Still well worth going on , even if the kids only make it to 9.15 or so.
You never know, you could be watching a future world star.

I hope the crowd is a good 1, and the FA allow more under 21 games here.
I believe the England team is also using the training facilities leading upto the game.
A great advert for the club, might sway a future transfer or two.

Think it being on the Monday evening is the biggest issue.

With it only being £1 for kid, I was thinking about treating the 14 kids I have in the team I coach by taking them on, but as it's an U10 team, its too late for them.

Why don't you take them on for the first half, then home?

No traffic, they get home on time after seeing brilliant players and it's about right for a kids attention span.

I know a few doing that, just as an early teaser for up and coming young fans.
Also might be a good game to look back on saying "you've seen him play" to the young ones in a few years time.

Really looking forward to it personally, hoping my daughter lasts a good 60 mins.
It's the last week before half term, so wont do them too much harm 1 late night.

It's not my decision, it's upto the parents

I didn't manage to get our normal seats in the Bob Lord stand on row D. Had to settle
for row T in the adjoining block.

Will see what the view is like from there.

All four sides on sale. Excellent.
Dwight McNeil hattrick to send the crowd wild and "He's one of our own" will ring round the ground.

Up the Clarets

Hi Bosscat. We sit in the Cricketfield stand on row N seat seats 128 129 and we have a generally good view - obviously Jimmy Mac is fairly distant but put it this way we all shouted for handball when the Bournemouth player handled at that end! There isn't a pillar near us as we are four seats from the side of the stand. I think you may have a pillar if you are around seat 80-90??? but maybe someone else will give a better opinion.
We generally stand and lean a little forward when someone is taking a corner near the Bob Lord/CFS.

See you there, our party is on Row L and M I think, as central as possible.

They were only selling the fisrts row of blocks when I went down for mine. Should be a decent crowd on.

I think that these opportunities are one offs and so 'too late for them' does not apply.

Playing with their phone, in bed, isxa poor substitute.
