Swansea Away

Post by cornishclaret92 » Tue Feb 14, 2017 1:12 pm

Here we go again. I was able to get a Watford away ticket no trouble. Will the Swansea away go on general sale??? Your thoughts please. Sure to be big interest in this as well as the already sold out Hull away. UTC

Would have thought that it probably will but really depends on what allocation we have.

Btw are you Phil?

Hi all you clarets. New ground for me IF I CAN GET ATICKET. Anyone know what our allocation is?? looking on tv/motd? looks like lower stand and not many???? I've done 7 away so far this season along with my son but he cant attend Swansea, (playing in the world snooker comp in Gibraltar) so just me NEEDS A TICKET. Thanks for any info fellow clarets.

Hi LEISURE, We also went to Watford, but Burnley family managed to get tickets for us, but they are out of the uk so I'm hoping they go on general sale??? cheers Phil

I think there is an allocation of around 2,000.

Anybody know how they're selling? Hoping to be two on Monday but obviously holding off making any travel plans until then.

If you go to Swansea and want some food and drink before or after the game, without queueing this place is close to the away end. Need to book...

There is a pub near the clubshop but queues are quite big on match day. Also a Frankie & Bennys on site

With all due respect to the staff selling tickets at the windows, I'm not sure just how they would know how many are also being sold online (which for this game would probably be the majority!). Anyway Accy Clarets have got 2 coaches going, which is a reasonable following for a long distance game.

My £17.50 ticket arrived this morning. I like Swansea!
Over 60 has a small benefit, every now and again!

Hi Leisure, many thanks for your kind offer of a Swansea ticket. Just found out I now may have a friend who wants to go, so will hold off until Monday and hope to get two together, if he decides to bail out I will snap ya hand off for it if you still have it. UTC

Hi Robbie, many thanks for the info, I'm sure lots may sell tomorrow due to being the home game, but will sweat it out and get two on Monday if possible. Many thanks again UTC
