I know Morgan Evan, he is a Leeds fan and is winding you up.

By Friday evening we shifted over 28000 tickets. Do you really think we have only then shifted another 3000 Saturday, Sunday, Monday?

Pay day this week, those folk will clear the remainder, chill out.[

I;m not that shocked we have'nt sold all our tickets. The pricing is scandalous for what is a championship game of football. Lets face it non of us are going to get much change out of £200 for a day out.


Haven't Reading taken between 35-40k for all other Wembley/Millennium Stadium visits? Wouldn't see this one being any different


Could see it being a little less this time - 3rd visit there in 6 years and were only there 2 years ago, plus the cost and our record there, could see a few decide against going.


Ah, the old "If I don't go this time maybe we'll win" tactic.

bobby1413 Why don't the club just farking give an update? They must know on a daily basis (at least) the current figures. Plus they must repeatedly get asked on twatter what the situation is


What does it matter? How will it effect you?



well, I care. I'm going to buy the 3000 remaining tickets myself, can't have Huddersfield outselling us.

they're mostly the cheap seats anyway.

He, he - actually it's mainly more expensive seats. tight Southerners vs profligate Northerners.... Huddersfield have pretty much sold-out now.

More like the glory hunters realising there's unlikely to be any glory.

Is it normal for concession tickets to arrive with the ticket stubs missing?

It is if that is the way a TO differentiates concessions. It's a common way of doing it, makes it easy to spot them at the turnstiles.

Surprised tickets haven't been sold out. It is a derby game after all - the famous tinpot derby 2017

Got 1 spare ticket in Block 117, Row 42 as my uncle can't go due to his wife being ill. Category 3 so £66 (with booking fee). Please let me know if you're interested!

Prices for the L2 Playoff are two thirds of the price of our Playoff.

Could understand a few quid difference but we're being ripped off big time.

They are missing *because* they're concession tickets.

The fact that the club are now basically pleading with fans to buy tickets suggests to me that we have a few left . . .

Imagine the fuss if they posted that and ended it by saying we had sold out !

Is it a shock that there may be some of the 40,000 tickets still available ?
Is it a shock that the club want to sell as many as possible (even if we will not benefit financially from the sales) ?
