wedge Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 On sale as of 5pm to members. Would be surprised if they hadn't sold out by morning. Weirdly, all of the Upper Holte was unavailable with a message stating 'this area is locked' if you attempted to click on a 'K' block area, Terrace View related? Also, I managed to get one in the lower a couple of minutes after 5pm, but haven't yet received any email confirmation or e-ticket via email yet, usually the e-ticket email comes through pretty instantly, just wondered if there is anyone else in this position? The money has been taken from my bank account by AVFC and the purchase is showing in my online ticketing account so I'm presuming it's all good but just thought it was abnormal.

I wanted tickets in the Holte but wasn't able to purchase them, "area locked". No idea why, it's frustrating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same, would have preferred to go in the Upper but got that same error message so had to grab one in the lower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had e-tickets to avoid admin fees. Am down south but didn't wanna wait till I got home tomorrow night as think will go pretty quick. My lads first proper game so wanted front row upper trinity. Not had e-tickets for league games before so don't know normal timescales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depending on if clarification arrives at any point, this could be something to raise at the next meeting. If Claret Club Members can no longer buy Holte Upper tickets, I think that should have been communicated before buying the membership. We'll see what happens I guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeilS Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 I bought two tickets yesterday at around 6ish, not had a confirmation email or tickets yet. It looks like I am not the only one though. I guess they will probably get sent in next week or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogso Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 With regards to the upper holte being locked out, it is indeed Terrace View related. No idea what happens when they reach general sale, the upper holte still isn't sold out, maybe they'll be available then? Makes a bit of a mockery of the membership, and I can't imagine enough terrace view packages would have been sold (plus existing season ticket holders) to sell out the upper holte every league match?

It's probably just the barriers at the bottom of the steps that these chaps are leaning on, might just restrict your view slightly. Unless they are stood there permanently, that'd be annoying.

I doubt I will be able to see them from A2 anyway 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
