Living in Bristol and unable to get to home games I try and get to a couple away each year. Will this be a popular game being last away game of the season or should I buy a home end ticket?

They go on sale this coming Monday, don't know how many we'll receive but I'd imagine they'd sell out

On sale before TV dates are announced by the looks of things.

I think this one will be popular, last away game of a great season, bank holiday weekend, nice place for an overnight stay etc.

It’s a brilliant away trip, Bristol/Cheltenham is a great weekend as well if the weathers nice

It's a lottery buying away tickets these days.

The club are considering a ballot for this game as well, anyone who has ever been to 1 game in the last 15 years can enter.

Sell out easy

I heard you had to have been at MK Dons in 2003

May try and get one but will have leave after 70 mins.

Did we agree the 25 pound deal with them?

Otherwise it looks like 33 quid an adult.

Yeah adults paid £25 at ours

https://www.bcfc.co.uk/news/no-pay-on-t ... nley-away/

Adults will be £25

I think the first allocation is 2,500 but can go up to 4,200 if needed I've been told

I hope you're ready for the impending thread about you then if that's the case.

I only live an hour away so hopefully they will get to general sale. Shouldn’t be a problem if we take the whole stand. More so is we don’t. We only sold Reading tickets two days into general sale so the club might be tempted to just take the 2500?

The club will take the full stand.

Finger's crossed

The away end is never shared with home fans so don't see why we won't have it all.

You'd think so eh but some clubs don't always use their noggin

Apparently they only give 2.2k ish and segregate the first 1/3rd of rows for every visiting team. So be another one that sells out and we get a restricted allocation in terms of the stand capacity..

Middlesbrough have been allocated 2,500 initially with more available depending on how well they sell for their game at Bristol City.

Pretty sure Man City got the full lot in the cup as well.

The original date we was getting the top end of 7k plus 100%

Then it all changed, I then mentioned we was only getting 2.3k......days before it come out and we got 2,250 so your point is ???????

Let's wait and see before you shoot your mouth off FFS

Corporate aren't counted in allocations.

It’s a message board. Where’s the fun in posting facts when we can take the pish out of super fans who deserve more than others.

Hopefully we get the 4200 tickets. The problem will be if you buy your ticket and sky changes the date/kick off time .

Can't see it being on TV, we'll have won the league by then and Bristol are in mid table.

RAIL STRIKES HAVE BEEN SUSPENDED
Please buy your tickets in advance as there will be
NO PAY ON THE DAY and this will NOT be changed
There is no hard copy match day programmes any more,
on line version available free of charge on the web site.
generally availble by the Thursday.
A hard copy can be purchased at a cost of five pounds,just ask for further info.

Coming by road.
Do NOT USE M4/M32 route and don't try to negotiate the roads and streets of Bristol
YOU WILL GET LOST
If you are coming by road use M4/M5 southbound to junction 18(Avonmouth) then follow signs A4 Bristol airport
It looks the long way round but its quicker.
Parking is normally in the streets around the area as long as you are there by 13:00am please don't block drive ways or park on corners.
If you are coming by train there is a local train service to PARSON STREET from Bristol Temple Meads
which leave at 25 minutes and 55 minutes past the hour.
Good train times as most trains from the London direction as well the North arrive at quarter to the hour or quarter past the hour
it takes you two thirds of the way to the ground and walk the rest of the way return by train to Bristol T.M. are at 37 minutes past the hour.
Using PARSON STREET will save you having to negotiate the ticket gates at Bristol Temple meads as there are no ticket gates at Parson Street
You will pass Sainsburys on the left with restaurant,Robins pub again on your left hand side
When you approach the ground I suggest you walk past wickes using the pavement
as the concourse area behind the big new stand gets very congested with bodies
Please make sure you get your train ticket showing PARSON STREET
We are trying to promote PARSON STREET for football fans till Ashton gate halt comes on line.
Split train tickets are available to Bristol from the London area using didcot parkway as your split ticket option
Group save tickets are available(one third off) on GWR trains but not cross country trains
If there are at least three of you arriving by train get a taxi
Make sure the taxi driver drops you in the Ashton Road end as it a very long walk round from the other end
or use the brown buses from the bottom of the incline of the station.
Which depart approximate 13:55pm with returns just after the match finishes
The return to London or the North trains leave Bristol Temple Meads at 17:30pm and I think you will struggle to get back to Bristol Temple meads for 17:30pm
Casualty and Holby City were filmed in the City don't ask me about either of the programmes cos I think their both rubbish
The young ones was also filmed in the BS7 area of the City(actually its Bishopston)
Finally the block of flats on the left behind the dolman stand side as you are in the away end is "the" block of flats in "fools and horses"
Bring your camera and turn up early if you want to take any photo's
Pubs possibly best one are in the cumberland road basin area novia scotia pump house and the cottage.

BBC Radio station is radio Bristol which has frequencies and 94:9 and DAB (and 95:5 up till 3pm),
and the match commentary will be on BBC radio Bristol

Please circulate to any other football forums and footy fans you may deem fit
If you need any further info,don't be afraid to ask

I agree, there's far more games with stuff riding on it that weekend...

Some tasty playoff spot games

Sunderland v Watford
West Brom v Norwich
B4stards v Luton

Then relegation one

Cardiff v Huddersfield
And then action at both ends in
Blackpool v Millwall

It's been posted that tickets are £33 but others on here are saying they are £25 ?
Take it that as per usual nothing official on price from the club even though they go on sale tomorrow

Just tried to buy 3 tickets but it will only allow me 1 . Anyone know if this will be increased at any time ? Rang the ticket office - no answer.

Once it gets to general you can buy up to 4 I think, when it is restricted it is 1 per season ticket with the level of points required until then

Just a heads-up here.
I've just bought 4 tickets for me & family.
I am not currently a ST holder, so general sale must have started.

I just bought 2 in general sale now. Why advertise that they go on sale on Friday? It’s frustrating that I have to check every day in case they release them earlier than advertised.

My son and myself bought a ticket each online separately, could anyone tell me if these are for specific seats as I seem to remember it was 'sit anywhere you want' last time we were there.
Cheers

You won't know if that's the case until you get on the ground but I would think that it will be allocated seats.

Ok cheers leisure

Anybody know roughly how many we’ve sold for this, thought we would have sold out by now

There's some nice pubs and restaurants down by the waterfront.

I ordered my Bristol City ticket online on the first day of sales and as I usually do, selected the post option. Just wondering if anybody who normally uses this method has received their ticket yet?
