Judging by the email I got they’re only selling tickets in less than half the ground.

‘ Stadium access:

Tickets for this fixture will be sold in the following areas
· Bob Lord Stand: Blocks 1-6
· Jimmy McIlroy: All Blocks
· North Stand Lower: Blocks 4-8’

Unless I’ve misunderstood!

Lazio/Roma

We play Lazio on the same day/time that Roma play Everton.

Flights from Rome will be interesting to say the least.

Recipe for disaster :roll:

Looks like Lazio have got the end blocks in the North Stand Lower rather than the Cricket Field

Just bought two tickets. One for me and one for a “friend or family”. You can choose any seats available (not just your season ticket seat) so we’re going to sit a bit nearer the front.

Not sure Sarri is gonna be in charge for the game. Rumours are he's set to resign coz they can't sign any players.

He’s only been back there a few weeks. He’d just gone back when I wrote the article.

If I remember rightly the Longside was closed for Zburnley fans when we played Verona but they put their fans in the Longside upper.

I was sat in lower tier for this game. They had a few hundred above us at one point a quite a lot were making nazi salutes.
I’m surprised they aren’t expecting a bigger following from Lazio given they must have a lot of support in England. Hope they’ve given it a bit more thought than Hannover!

I knew I was in the Bob Lord so assumed the Longside was closed to us but obviously it was just the upper closed to allow them in.

Wow. Genuinely thought there must have been loads of them as I remember them being very loud.

Did Luca Toni play that day. I have that in my head also. Can’t believe it’s over ten years ago.

I’m going to ask a dumb question…
Why is it that we are able to safely police/steward away fans in the Cricketfield during ‘normal’ league games, but then seem to not be able to for pre-season matches & therefore put them in other, seemingly, less sensible locations in the ground?
Guess I’m missing something?

For Verona in 20214, I don't think we expected that many turning up.
For Lazio in August, the cricket field stand is closed for operational reasons, I'm wondering if they are still carrying out work in there.

Think the assumption is (perhaps naively in lazio case) that it’s a ‘friendly’.

I’d like to think it will pass off peacefully. And more of an intrigue about it than anything.

But there’s a very real chance it could be ‘feisty’ imo.

I went to the European Cup Winners Cup Fonal in 1999 at Villa Park and the Lazio fans were very friendly. It was Roma who caused trouble in Liverpool. Been to the Stadio Olimpico and same.

I can’t imagine Lazio fans at a friendly in mid summer will cause lots of trouble but what do I know. German fans from a small City might feel like making a name for themselves but Romans flying into Burnley possibly wouldn’t see it the same.

The Roman salute is a Nazi salute so no doubt there could be some of that going on,

I’d judge as you find to be honest. Looking forward to this one So gia du’ore.,,

Some have received their tickets in the email, others haven’t. You couldn’t make it up how things continue to go wrong.

I had the same problem, so had to use a friend's Clarets number to purchase one of the tickets.

I have emailed the club suggesting that if they make promises in promotional material, they should ensure their IT systems can fulfil them.

I don't hold out much hope for a response.

Did you put 4 in the - + box at the top? (which for some unknown reason is always pre-populated with 2)

Doesn’t matter which way you do it, it would not allow you to buy more than one per Clarets number.

I bought three in one transaction and two in another later in the day but it would not allow me to buy more than one ticket with a Clarets Number yet they said four per number. Mind you, they said the Longside upper was shut initially while selling tickets in there.

It states on the ticketing site too: "Friday 27th June, 10:00 AM 2025/26 Season Ticket Holders & BFC Premium Members (up to 4 tickets per Claret number)"

But if you try to buy more than one with a Clarets Number you get: "Unfortunately, you are attempting to purchase more tickets for a match than your membership is allowed to".

Although I never had any problems with it, I know some people had issues with previous system, but nothing like what’s happened since moving to TicketMaster

Sunderland also used them last season but have dropped them for this season for the purchase of Matchday tickets, going with SeatGeek

The ticketing thing is absolute shite .

You can’t add an extra ticket for a concession because the date of birth corresponding to the main name on the account brings up an error.

Then when you set someone up on the “clarets network” then it states that the person in the network doesn’t have the correct attributes to purchase seats .

Thus trying to get you to purchase another membership, what a load of old shite that is.

Heard there is going to be a huge following from lazio including the English based fans (which includes many London based fans. West Ham have links with lazio as I believe do Espanyol).

To my surprise, and with apologies to the club for ever doubting them, I have had a response to my enquiry. The explanation given is as follows:

Although each Season Ticket holder could purchase 4 tickets, only one of these could be at the Season Ticket holders reduced price. If the price for all 4 tickets were at the reduced price, this would have stopped the purchase.

I may have missed this in the email and on the website but I don't recall this information being part of the message regarding the sale of tickets for the game.
