2025/26: Tottenham Hotspur V Burnley – Ticket Information

[Leisure]

Have to say, I’m quite shocked at the take up. I thought 2,100 would be enough in the height of summer, so how wrong was I!

Is there any prospect whatsoever of applying for the extra 900 or has that ship sailed?

Probably no chance but fingers crossed

[RickyBobby]

A few more seats available.

Why are they drip feeding the last few seats?
Is this a game to them?

If they've already gone on sale to the Spurs fans, then yes, it's too late.

It might be people struggling with the system.

[ClaretTony]

I enjoyed the podcast on the ISA but the main question for me which wasn’t asked (surprisingly) was what discussion / engagement has there been with the club? Has there been any indication they want to engage?

Pleased you enjoyed it. I’d been speaking to Simon Evans at the podcast for some time about doing it. I thought for a while I might have to go on but thankfully didn’t. Simon Jackson (our interim chair) and James Hart did brilliantly. Also, Greavesy who was interviewing fully understood and helped so much.

The club have indicated they want to engage so we are now just awaiting that. I can understand that being the question but hopefully that will soon have a positive answer. As I said further up the thread, the take up has been excellent so far, definitely beyond my expectations.

[NewClaret]

That was really my question, do we know if they have?

[lakedistrictclaret]

Seats still available, if you’ve got 2000 points.

A big group of us wanted to go to this game when the fixtures first came out, with varying number of points, while train tickets were reasonable.

Nobody trusted the board to take a big enough allocation to get us tickets, so we didn't book the train.

[NewClaret]

It’s because after people select the tickets they’re reserved for 25 minutes while people complete the purchase. This will be the release of seats from people who didn’t complete their purchase on time.

As I say, have to confess that if the decision were left to me I wouldn’t have taken the extra 900 in height of summer, so I can’t really rant too much but it’s looking a very poor decision now.

Gutted for the fans missing out and hope there’s some way we can get the extra block.

Are you called New claret because you've only just started supporting us?

To quote a former Burnley manager... A blind man on a galloping horse could see there'd be a high demand for tickets.

[ClaretTony]

This is one of the reasons I got involved with the ISA. And hopefully the club will engage with us and listen to us.

The number of people who have joined has been beyond expectation and the more that do, the stronger the ISA will become.

I’m happy to plug it too. Please consider joining. It’s only a fiver until the end of July next year.

Thanks to all those who have joined following this post today.

[Row x]

Seats still available, if you’ve got 2000 points.

Or know someone who has
There will be loads there with less than 2000pts

[claretdj]

Will the club engage with the ISA though? Seen as they already have the FAB in place.

[RickyBobby]

Disgusting to see this. I
guess it isn’t season ticket holders reselling, deffo members who will be based abroad no doubt.

They only sporadically engage with the FAB so far, tbh. So many decisions seem to get relayed to the FAB in advance, often under a NDA, but very little consultation on anything more substantive than the pie kiosk's fayre or ticket office opening hours seems to actually have been actively consulted on.

I've joined the ISA, and i previously have joined the Trust, however i fear it may end up being futile. Got to have a crack though, certainly. keep knocking on the door.

I don't know, but i'm not going to be naive enough to dismiss the possibility that that could easily be the club reselling tickets themselves.

History would suggest not, prior first premier league away attendances on a Saturday:

Swansea 994
Chelsea 1473
Chelsea 1440
Arsenal 1372
Liverpool 1526

I’m not sure what is particularly attractive about Spurs, versus say Liverpool? And with three London clubs not even reaching 1500 you can see why the club would think 2100 was ample.

But my main reason is the time of year being mid-holiday season, although maybe that’s my bias because that’s when I have to go away. Same reason the Turf is often half empty until September.

Others called it and fair enough, well done.

Absolute disgrace.

This has to be raised with the club and hopefully the tickets cancelled.

[worksop blue]

just logged on to say bought 2 tickets 15 minutes ago. looks like a few left if any help to anybody.

We sold out for Liverpool - took 1,600 of which 1,526 were confirmed as being there. Likewise both of those games at Chelsea on opening day in 2017 was sold out and first away game the year before were sold out. We were close to max at Arsenal too. Don't have details for Swansea (14/15).

This was always going to happen, it was like this 2 seasons ago at Spurs too. These Clarets Memberships are open to anyone, what’s to stop someone spending £150 (or however much it is) on a membership with the view to selling on the tickets for bigger clubs at United, City, Chelsea, Arsenal, Spurs & Liverpool at £100-200 a do. 2 tickets per membership? Be a tidy profit come May. It was a cash grab by the Club 2 seasons ago has created this issue.

[pompeyclaret]

Are the sales strong so unlikely to get to general sale?

Was hoping take the two boys but seems unlikely if they bring sold on at those prices

[cav]

Thing is though Pete, you’re fan who goes away every other weekend, most of us who go away know these things about allocations and how many ticket we had we sold, etc.… Look at the types who run the club or supposedly represent us on the FAB… They haven’t got a clue.

The allocations go on UTC with the ticket info. Although they are removed after each game, I retain them and Leisure is absolutely right, we sold out other than Swansea.

As I posted above, all this is why I got involved with the new ISA. It's a fan-led, democratic group that is going to do everything it can to become an organisation representing our fans through consultation and engagement with the club.

They know which seats they are so surely they can track the members/season ticket holders who bought them and block them, and then prohibit them from obtaining tickets in future.

[Spijed]

Hopefully someone will raise the fact that the away end at Liverpool is now a more attractive prospect and the interest will likely reflect this.

Far better now at Anfield since they built the new stand behind. Still the same view but without the restrictions.

[Leisure]

I had a look on that site and whilst the block number is given, there are no seats numbers shown.

[ClaretTony]

I've checked that too Leisure. So no way of finding out which seats are up for sale unless you buy one.

[ŽižkovClaret]

Hypothetical question.

Do we know for certain that we haven't taken the 3000, BUT only 2100 have been released via traditional channels, with the balance being used for players and families tickets, resale sites, etc?

[claretonthecoast1882]

I had a look on that site and whilst the block number is given, there are no seats numbers shown.

The club should buy them. In doing so would allow them to re-sell them at face value to someone with the correct points and also ban whoever it is selling them which would become clear once they had the seat numbers.

You would only need this to happen 2 or 3 times to put a stop to it.

[Row x]

I'd have a wager the tickets don't exist

Interestingly, that site's sister company (same registered office) is also on a PL list of sites not to be trusted:

https://www.premierleague.com/en/ticket ... t-websites

There is a degree of cynicism whereby it may be that they are just not official partners and therefore the PL is duty bound to talk them down, but i'd be cautious.

[Spike]

These rogues selling the tickets were invited to the training session for Members presumably

That was for junior members, completely different

[Targetman]

Looking at those low figures why did we take such a low allocation at places such as Arsenal & Liverpool?

Presumably same reason as we took only 2,000 for Tottenham?

The people making the decisions about away ticket allocations don't seem to be able to gauge the demand for certain games do they?

Since it was announced that we had only requested 2,000 tickets from Spurs the overall reaction, with the odd exception, was that this would be a big mistake.

Hindsight is a wonderful thing but an early sell out was predicted almost unanimously by fans who travel to away games.

The 'powers that be' don't seem concerned at all when fans miss out because of ridiculous decisions.

A lot of our fans when going to London games like to travel by train, prices can double if you leave booking the train til nearer the match date.

So I bet there are quite a few people who have booked trains but now are unable to get a match ticket.

Members could only buy exclusively from block 118. The other blocks were only opened once tickets went live after 10am.

[Targetman]

I'm talking about fans who have to wait until tomorrow or Wednesday to be able to get them with their loyalty points.

Would anyone book travel if they had less than 2000pts?
Not lots.

Of course people would book trains, have you any idea how expensive the train fare can be from Manchester or Preston to London if you leave it until 3 or 4 weeks before the game?

I personally know a couple of fans who have done this so I'm pretty sure there will be others.

We'd considered the train and had we taken that option we would have booked long before now

[ŽižkovClaret]

You do increasingly wonder if there may be a tactic of deliberately creating a level of scarcity that pushes people towards purchasing one of the membership options......

What are the other logical explanations?

[NottsClaret]

You’d expect Burnley away tickets to be a top target for touts for tourism. Sign up to our membership scheme, jump the queue, all tickets £30 of course and then resell for £150. Miles easier to get ours than pretty much anyone else’s and a Chinese fella on holiday doesn’t care which ‘end’ he’s in. He’s there for Spurs or Liverpool or whoever.

There’s going to be loads of tourists at every big club away end we go to this season.

Same as us really. Thing is for future London games we'll probably do the same now.

We booked when fixtures came out, booking today would have cost the 3 of us an extra £100. Basically the price of the match tickets

[ŽižkovClaret]

Given the cost of the train, if there is 6 or so of you, you could probably book a return luxury people carrier for the same if not a bit less money
