Bradford Tickets

[colincramb]

If we were selling this many tickets every game then I'm sure repairing the seats would be higher up on the priority list.

It’s not a big issue to fix though is it? Like I’ve said, people have offered to fit them for FREE! It’s really not going to cost much at all and if we had done it pre-season we’d have made the money back by now in the sales that could have been had over the palace and this game

The club are all over it & this is why the additional seats have become available. Hope this clarifies.

I suspect this was the case but thanks for the feedback.

One for the close season to take up with the club is the seat plan colours could do with changing for each game in turn.

For instance you log on to buy a ticket, the matrix shows tickets available in an "away" seating area or in an area that are "not available". This could and most likely is confusing to fairweather fans!

Yes the feedback is very much appreciated Lincoln. Are you able to provide any info or rationale regarding the sale/non sale of north stand tickets. No problem if not.

[Lincoln Rover]

It’s the length our club is going, to ensure any potential disorder is kept to a minimum. We ( Shadow board) have been kept fully updated, right up to this afternoon.

[sf9944]

Ok thanks again Lincoln

Anyone any ideas what the total figure will be in the end then?

I'll guess at 12800

[Lincoln Rover]

12000/12500

[Goldthorperover]

I'll go for 12198

[Hickleton Rover]

12,245 i am going for ⚽

[normal rules]

12250

[philsky]

11,860

[Pancho Regan]

If W32 has been opened can W33 be made available too?
Or has this area already sold out?

A lot of mithering about the north stand. I think a lot of people fail to realise that the blocks up to the north west and north east corners will be full of home supporters. This never happens and more than makes up for the empty blocks in the north stand . More home fans less away fans . Prob around 10.5 -11k home fans . Which is unheard of at the keepmoat . Because for big games there is usually over 3 thousand away fans . Good job by the back office safety ground management team imo.

It is a shame that we constantly miss out on 2000 extra sales which equates to £40,000 in extra revenue. I know there are safety issues to a game of this magnitude and obviously it would need extra stewards and policing.
If only we could rid ourselves of footy violence and behave and therefore treated in the same manner as big rugby games where they mix supporters and can drink during matches without “ kicking off “. Still though policing and stewarding in some towns is super aggressive and tends to cause more trouble than it stops.
Strange thing is many a footy supporter goes to Rugby Union/ League matches as well  !

[Copps is Magic]

To be fair, I would have liked to see the North open also but the sales have slowed down a bit at the back end of this week and demand is currently meeting supply. You would have had to sell those tickets tomorrow morning which I think gets messy and risky logistically.

[Copps is Magic]

East sold out. 85 left in the West.

Was thinking along the same lines.
There's potentially more home fans tomorrow than the crewe play off game.

[5minstogo]

Odd tickets appearing as people hand back. I’ve just got one in W24

Make sure you bring me some sweets.

Id expect w33 to go on sale once W32 is close to sold out.

How? We had half the North for the Crewe game.

It wasn't half, more like a quarter. Pretty sure w31 was closed too.

[pib]

Club have announced that tickets will go off sale at midnight and there will be no on-day sales, so if you want to go and haven't got your ticket yet, do it now!

It wasn’t half mate, the segregation was in the east side of the north stand. We only really had a couple more blocks than what we’ve sold for this

Yeah we had N41-N44 for that game. Around 1000 seats.

[roverstillidie91]

No new blocks showing as opened up as it stands and no tickets available.

Yes, I get the sentiment and there's no escaping the small minority which makes policing more difficult than it ought to be.

Probs about half of that £40,000 when you consider Seniors and kids etc plus the VAT man.

[DonnyOsmond]

Not selling on the day seems daft. Can they keep one or two sections free for walk ups.

[pib]

Should be able to sell more in the North Stand IMO. Surely having an extra couple of blocks of Rovers fans isn't going to greatly increase the chances of trouble? Just shooting ourselves in the foot with revenue, and not having the boost of the ground being absolutely full to the brim. Should've just given the full end to Bradford if the plan was never to have Rovers fans in the North. Seems pointless having 1000-1500 empty seats for such a spurious reason.
