Amazing that we have sold out Watford
Agreed. I didn’t get tickets for Hudds & can’t make Wigan so was definitely going to Watford, but when they changed it to Friday, put it on Sky and I realised there’s a train strike the following day I decided against it & expected it’d be half full at most.
To fill our third consecutive away end is some going. Hope they sing the lads to another away victory.

Mate of mine has gone from picking the odd game last season to getting a season ticket as well, again it was the style of football on offer.

Would like to know if we’ve significantly increased ST holders from the 14,073. A fair few I know have bought in the last week.

Yes me too. There was still a lot of unknowns when that figure was announced, I wondered after the Huddersfield game if there was a rush of people at the ticket office the following week to buy season tickets once they’d been wowed by ‘kompany ball’.

Yes, I’d imagine there was a few undecided that it managed to convince.
They’re still on sale, so a great opportunity to persuade a few more tomorrow to splash out on a ST.

Just about to travel, I only hope the trains are on time, apparently there's cancellations on the West Coast again.

No they'll just be the ones not released online, this happens most times it's about to sell out.

Sure there’s some scheme where supporters can sell back the ST for a match?
Maybe these are returns released late when it looks like the others might sell out?

tbh at lot of clubs allow season tickets to release their seat for a game they cant make it to for whatever reason for some sort of reward.
Would make sense from the clubs point of view if they did allow this and resold the seats - as empty seats in effect cost money ( extra refreshments, club shop purchases etc) especially when the games a sell out or close to it.

They were a block of tickets, two rows full. That's one big family.
**On the plus side, most of the seats on those two rows have been sold this morning.

The club has to be selling the ground out on a regular basis for this to work.

Where in the ground were the seats for?
BFCitC usually have tickets for the end blocks of the JHL for any kids teams that are doing the Matchday experience.
If they haven’t used all those then they will now be available

Yes correct Wilks.
They were in block 8 and as you say tickets are held back for various reasons and made available online if not required.

Already down to 83 with 2 hours to kick off, so that's 50 gone this morning.

With almost a full house it was disappointing to see the posh bit of the bob lord more than half empty today. Does anybody know what the deal is with it? Hospitality? Such a shame as they’re the best seats in the house.

Apologies, I’ve just seen the thread about those seats in the bob lord.
