HirstWhoScoredIt Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 (edited) We had a lengthy debate about ticket priority for away matches last week, hence me bringing this up. No idea whether this is a good idea or not but Leeds appear to have an interesting take on it. For most matches their away priority works in a similar way to ours. For a few matches per season they abandon their priority system and have a free for all where all season ticket holders have the same priority - first come first served. As a result you had the chaotic situation of 4,600 tickets selling out in 30 minutes this morning. Some fans who’ve been to most matches will have missed out. Others, who usually can’t get tickets will have got them. Edited September 17, 2018 by HirstWhoScoredIt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Farrell Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Even a thread about dirty Leeds makes me feel unclean. Scrubbers. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamsandwich Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 seems a bit random. Also - bit hoolie element at Leeds so youd think theyd be a bit more careful about distribution Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
royalowlisback Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 For which game is this? The one against us? If so, I wonder if that scrubber who decked Kirkland will make an appearance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, 4600 means they have both tiers. That went well last time on a Friday night... Edited September 17, 2018 by Ever the pessimist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamsandwich Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 does it? i thought the top was 5000 and the bottom was 2000? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owl At Risk Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 What could possibly go wrong with this approach I wonder. Find out at what remains of Hillsborough stadium next Friday around 22:00. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

airborne_rat_of_s6 Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Won’t be an issue. Leeds don’t see us as rivals. They will no doubt behave and await their next match with manure to vent. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think it's more 4000 on top, 2000 bottom, 1500 corner. 4600 will probably end up being a 3000/1600 split top/bottom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plonk Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Well as stupid ideas goes this has to be right up there. Friday night game, no control over tickets and give the bottom tier. Do the police learn nothing from previous games? Absolutely insane this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weather season ticket holders or not If they really wanted to be at the game theres probably no reason why they couldn't be, just took in our ticket section how many change hands, imagine a club that size it would be 100's every away game.
