Great I have two in the covered section but Mrs R fancies the trip so I'll get one more and we'll work it out somehow

Just bought my Gillingham ticket as I was on the waiting list having called last week.
First class service from the girls at the club on the phone. Should be a great day out.

No longer available on line? Does this suggest they have all gone?

Which stand are the additional tickets for?

Scaffolding stand behind the goal

Post by: Jimmydee on April 22, 2024, 07:38:48 pm
I’m assuming that it’s an additional allocation to what’s already been sold? so another 634 extra tickets won’t cause too much of a hassle to purchase.

It seems the demand is high Jimmy old boy.

What was the initial allocation and what area of the ground was it for?

What was the initial allocation and what area of the ground was it for?

“We are pleased to confirm that we have been allocated a further 634 tickets for the final league game of the season at Gillingham on Saturday, April 27.

Our initial allocation of 865 has sold out and the Gills have granted our request for more tickets.”

Think the initial was the scaffold stand and some in the side stand.

- 44 left in block 5
- Block 6 available from 09:00 this morning.

Post by: Rovers91 on April 23, 2024, 05:57:52 am
I'm sure originally we only got 435 tickets and not the 865 and it was like 220 on the side and rest behind goal.
Title: Re: 634 tickets
Post by: rich1471 on April 23, 2024, 09:19:11 am
Just block 6 left  got 4 tickets this morning
Going to collect later today

Surely there'd be more if the demand was there? On the website there are only about 14 rows on sale, there are more than 14 rows on that scaffold stand in total, so they must be selling the lower blocks first.

They are certainly just selling them in blocks. Only about 1400 total their away capacity though.

Something must have changed then because Southampton and Charlton took 1600-1800 there this season, and Rotherham took 2200 the season before last when they clinched promotion.
Title: Re: 634 tickets
Post by: johnny rovers on April 23, 2024, 11:14:50 am
the away allocation we have is 1499. this includes the 200 odd on the side. the scaffolding stand holds more than 1500 but a large proportion of the last block to the main stand is/will be netted off for segregation purposes.

Post by: GazLaz on April 23, 2024, 11:22:26 am
The “temporary” stand. Like saying the pyramids were temporary.

No idea then, I suppose we'll find out on Saturday how many we're taking!

Generally works. The people that want to stand up to the back and the ones that want to chill out a bit go nearer the front naturally. Ends up creating a better atmosphere as well.

Gotcha.

Go to loads of away matches but something tells me that the first tickets are actually in a small section under cover. With the single ticket being in the open temp stand.

We could surely shift another 500 but it seems they don't want the money.

as long as we don't have stewards like at Grimsby who were insistent we sit in the seats our ticket number said, I suggested all the best luck telling that to the 300 lads coming up at 2.50pm

It seems the top of the "temporary" stand has been closed for a while safety reasons, according to a few Gills fans on Twitter, so the away allocation is limited to the side and the lower bit mostly.
