Well....just watched chris turners explanation of ticket fiasco. Have to say im not reassured in any way! No mention of tickets sold in blocks.....quite the opposite...he suggests we all look at the view from each section on the wembley website before we go for tickets so we can decide where we want to sit before we get there !!!!!!

Oh ..but for those of you wanting 26 quid tickets he reckons a batch will be saved for each day so even in thurs there will be some left, and also family stand ones

I'm glad someone listens to me... right I'm off the point this out to the missus (though something tells me its going to fall on deaf ears )

Is it officially a 'fiasco' now?

If equal numbers of each price range are set aside how can there be an issue ?

Once again the club has made a complete balls up of something so simple

Its an issue for me cos i want the 46 quid ones, no mention of any of them put aside, and surely if u can choose then those people wanting 46 quid ones are going to go for the side ones eaning when i get there the only ones available will be corner 46 quidones which i dont want!

[azul]

No mention of telephone sales either

[SpireiteRachel]

Would of made more sense to sell the tickets behind the goal then the ones down the side so everyone has the same chance of getting the area they want

Thats what someone reckoned theyd been told by the club, but turners interview implied choice (i think !! Might have to watch it again to make sure im right in my interpretations!)

[Spireite61]

Why is this interview limited to those who subscribe to player, surely the issue of ticketing is of interest to all fans and so should be made available to all.

You can relax, the club/wembley have said only the lower tier tickets are on sale, this means the £46 one's are on the side, see last years plan (where they were £44)

The wembley site says levels 1 and 2 available to cfc, 1,2 and5 to swindon, and as the blocks are numbered 100,200 and 500 i assume the pink blocks 215 to 221 will be available to us???

you might be right but I think the only block of £46 will be the lower tier as the FL don't like empty seats being prominent on TV

They managed to make it look like Darlington took a few when they only took 10,000 as they filled round towards the camera.

They are making a hell of a job for themselves if they are allocating specific seats.

[Fan28]

Surely they'll just have a pile of tickets for each of the sections, then when you ask for a specific section they'll just give you the tickets off the top of that pile? I don't think that's too difficult to arrange

[Westbars Spireite]

What issue can anyone have after hearing that?
