    They should be gone by Friday I would expect. I would guess over half have gone already.
    I would be surprised if there are any left by the weekend.

    Stop worrying as long as you've purchased yours, when and if other priority ticket purchase theirs is irrelevant most have acknowledged they have paid £30 as insurance that they get to certain games where our attendance outstrips the away allocation, worrying like this you'll be a nervous wreck before your much older.

    About 1500. I expect they will all be gone as soon as season ticket holders are given the chance to buy.

    The start to the season added to the very reasonable pricing will see all of them snapped up.

    It cost £39 for 2 tickets to Mansfield for me and my kid plus booking charges etc from our website.

    The same 2 tickets this time are £23. With £3 return on the train.

    Who’s worrying? I’m just making an observation. Stop being so defensive, we all know you’ve bought a priority card ‘just in case’

    We got 1316.
    The 216 seats have sold.
    1100 standing were left.
    I reckon by tomorrow morning when they go on sale to S/T holders there will be about 400 left.
    Most know someone with a priority card, i rang 3 up yesterday asking if they were going or if I could use theres.
    All are going but if they weren't i would have been given there details.
    All tickets will be sold by 9.30am tomorrow morning imo.

    Except that @Bronco@Bronco went to Mansfield and has used his priority card to secure seating tickets at Salford. That doesn't sound like someone who never goes away and has bought the card 'just in case' for glamour away cup ties, does it?

    You are under estimating the glamour of a game for a team who pull in 1,500 on the back streets of a part of Manchester there.

    Let's see if you're still travelling the length and breadth of the country every other week in twenty years time.

    I'm only confirming what I and many more have done with regards buying a priority ticket, I'd suggest the break down of cards purchased is over 50% possibly more by fans like myself who want to give themselves the best chance of getting a ticket for the likes of Salford etc so I'm in good company.

    As you say I attend games as and where I can I've never made a secret of it, I'd think I'll attend over 50% this season all being well, I have nothing but admiration for the likes of Shipley Bantams or Bingley Bantams who run coaches to all games, I've been there and done it in the past and don't think I am any less of a fan than my new buddy @Loyalbantam@Loyalbantam, some need to get a sense of reality that you can't categorise fans by the amount of games they attend, unfortunatly some do.

    I know why people buy them and can understand why they do but doesn’t make it right does it.
    There could be fans who attend 20 away games this season and come the Sutton game where a win secured promotion or even the league title you’ll get the away priority members coming out of the woodwork snapping up the tickets.
    Won’t affect me directly because I’ll get one but my point all along is these cards are used wrongly by a lot of people.

    Are you really a loyalbantam. You are talking about coming out of the woodwork to jump on a promotion bandwagon. I've followed City for 35+ years and only see us promoted 4 times. If you were as loyal as you suggest you'd know such talk at this stage is insane.

    I posted when the cards went on sale and when they were sold out I believe it was around 4 days, why would anyone who attends all or most away games not purchase a priority card, it doesn't make sence they spend hundreds/ thousands of pounds traveling the country, in comparison buying a priority ticket is a no brainer so don't have a go at the likes of myself who took out a little insurance by purchasing two, your arguement doesn't stand up.
    Just to add if it didn't make it right or was unethical I wouldn't think the club would sell them.
    This is a sh!ty comment to aim at any fan who supports the club : "you’ll get the away priority members coming out of the woodwork snapping up the tickets" what don't you understand with regards sucsess attracts more fans priority or otherwise, you're not a nice man with comments like that or your "coffin dodger" comment the other month.

    Exactly. Anyone who can afford to attend 20 away games can afford an away priority card, so where's the problem?
