Home Game V Bournemouth Help

Post by leightonjameslegend » Thu Jan 11, 2024 12:09 pm

I am travelling over at the end of February from Spain. Bringing my son to visit his nan and wanted to take him to his first Burnley game.
Only problem is general tickets are a sell out.

So looking at Hospitality and wondered if the Jimmy McIlroy Lounge (North Stand) is worth the £120 per person? Compared to the £99 per person in - 100 Club VIP seating. I guess the Bob Lord behind the dugout will be a better view and nearer to the action as the North Stand seating seems to be in the corner.

Just wanted to get peoples thoughts, especially those who have experienced either or both.

Thanks in advance

Tickets from the ticket exchange won't have come on sale yet so there will be tickets available in a few weeks I'd imagine.

The Longside upper view will be a decent view and the hospitality section is newer.
The Bob Lord option will be nearer to the subs etc.. so depending on your sons age and interest in seeing players close up.

But as already said, tickets will be put back on a week or so before the game.

I'm a season ticket holder in Jimmy McIlroy Hospitality and this season's experience is nowhere near as good as last. I doubt I'll renew & I wouldn't be paying £120 to go in for 1 game. The Longside Hospitality is better - I've upgraded to that twice this season - but it's extremely noisy and on both occasions I couldn't hear a word of the celebrity guest interviews.

I know the club probably won't care because the tickets have sold but it seems mental to me that it's such a hassle for someone to get tickets for Bournemouth on the Turf.
