Bolton Tickets

Thanks northern.

 

There’s no limit, you could buy the whole stadium up but the ticketing system will only allow you to add 20 tickets to basket.

 

Give the ticket office a bell if you want certainty .

 

Do you also need to have a purchase history, otherwise Bolton fans would be snapping them up
Or a Bradford postcode?

 

I dunno. The main purchaser will need a membership etc but whether all tickets need to be assigned to a member I don’t know.

 

By the looks of MR blocks F/G they might as well have given Bolton all of it.
And if the result goes bad on Saturday ie a heavy defeat then they probably should.

 

Maybe the clubs could retrospectively review the ticket allocations.
Ie. We give them all of MR if they give us half of the lower blocks?

 

Yes i had a look myself earlier, the two end blocks allocated to city fans have hardly sold any.
So the midland road guys actually not that keen to sit in there, looks like more gone in the Bradford end.

 

We considered moving along, we normally sit in A block of the Midland Road. We decided against it as we weren't sure how many would be in the TL Dallas and thought the atmosphere might be poor compared with the other end of the ground. Psychologically it still feels like the away end, so we opted for opposite where we normally sit in the upper tier of the main stand. The other consideration was after the match, would we have to walk the long way round to get to where we are normally picked up on Queens Road, to avoid conflict with Bolton fans?

 

And their fans don’t seem too keen on sitting in their lower tier. A massive own goal for both clubs playing petty games with each other at the expense of fans who just want to go watch the games.

 

Both clubs should get together today and make the decision for us to cancel tickets bought in Midland Road F/G and they cancel their lower tier sales, then making those tickets available for away fans.
Each club would then have around 4500 tickets

 

Using Google AI, it looks like there's still just under 6,000 tickets to be sold before todays general sale entry for the game at VP

 

Could be a mad rush
The tough shit stadium holds 28723
The league game had a 26473 attendance, with 5000 from Bradford, so 21000 home fans, they have 26700 home seats available for this game
As you say, an agreement could have been made to accomodate more away fans

 

Similar looking for the two MR blocks we have, there's still over 800 tickets in those 2 blocks available.

 

i understand your reasoning, but the who ha around this is crazy, a lot created by the clubs
Common sense has left the building.

 

Agree any other business would try and maximise the revenue from both games as long as there were no safety issues.

 

Do the ticket sales for the play offs still get split 4 ways across all the teams?

 

I suppose this comes back to the distribution of funds. All the ticket money minus expenses is shared between all 4 playoff teams. The two largest supporting clubs have no incentive to work hard to maximise sales.

 

yes after the league take there cut, which is quite large i believe, after costs i think we get about £3 per ticket
