I'll see how it is nearer the time, but saving £2 and risking the glorious South Wales weather in that open stand is maybe a risk too far.

I've been to Rodney Parade, there's a right distance between the pitch and the stand behind the goal. You're a lot nearer the pitch from the side. You takes your choice by saving 2 quid.

I had a conversation with the ticket office when I bought mine.
Apparently Newport originally quoted discount prices from a cup game (Checkatrade?) before realising their mistake.
Mine was £14.

Cheers Idler, that sounds right, we should challenge Newport because that original price was one of the deciding factors for me and a mate to go to the game and also that I'm  not working on Friday.

Yes I had a shock when I bought my son's ticket for Saturday and mine for Newport. I wasn't expecting £33 as I originally bought a ticket for the side stand and it was £16.

Anyone know how many tickets we've sold out of the 781 we've been allocated?.

Are tickets for this available to purchase late night Thursday at the ticket office? Is there a £2 price increase if bought on match day?

I saw on the club's twitter that it was the same price on the night - unless I've read it wrong.

I know the original article said it was a £2 increase but I also think someone on here said that they'd accidentally quoted prices for a Checkatrade Trophy game.
