Rugeley Villa Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 59 minutes ago, VillaChris said: Way too much for an early season cup game especially as we had europa league matches either side. Hopefully club learn from that and we have Chelsea style pricing for any league cup home games next season. Definitely mate. Plus season card holders were used to getting this for free.

The Fun Factory Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 5 hours ago, Rugeley Villa said: Everton game cheapest adult ticket was £30 if I remember right but some were £40 hence the low turn out That was really dumb pricing. At least they got the ECL prices right, and this game as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greed pure and simple. It backfired though in terms of attendance but they actually made more from a 24k gate than they would have from a big gate at cheap tickets Edited February 3 by Rugeley Villa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brumstopdogs Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 Today's win shouldn't do any harm to the ticket sales for this match I expect... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markavfc40 Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 About 4.2k tickets left. Assuming Chelsea sell their allocation I'd imagine we're looking at 40k+. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair play to the club for making the right decisions regarding ticket prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In theory you've got 20k+ people trying to get a season ticket, when in reality possibly half of those, if not more, are already members and half of those members go to most games. You would think that a cheaply priced game would be perfect to sell out. I'm not ashamed to admit that if this was normal price I wouldn't be going. I've prioritised league and europe and me and the lad haven't missed one yet. Nah, me and my mates are on the season ticket waiting list, we have 6 memberships and we go to most PL games. None of us have any interest in buying tickets for this game, but all of us will take up the season ticket when we get to the front of the list.

avfc456 Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 Just had a quick count and just under 2700 left on the website. Considering the price I am surprised there are that many tickets left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markavfc40 Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 (edited) Around 1.7k left now so they are steadily selling. It should be over 40k, assuming Chelsea sell their allocation, so not far off a sell out. Edited February 5 by markavfc40 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By now you’d think the club know the demand for hospitality and so would not keep so many seats in reserve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markavfc40 Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 Less than 900 showing as available now but as OBE said they'll also be releasing the held seats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure mate. There are only about 750 left now and looks like pretty much single seats so if they are holding tickets back they'd be as well to release them soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
