Hope they're taking that absolutely gigantic Morris Dancers BWFC flag that the locals chipped in to have made a couple of years ago!

I'll be getting my allocation of 6 tickets, so any spares that I haven't shifted before open sale date can go to someone on here for face value....might be worth sticking up a list of those who aren't ST holders but want to go, so any more spares can be distributed amongst us lot

I haven't got a S/T but desperately want to go along with my other half. If anyone gets two spare then it would be gratefully appreciated. I will be trying for open sale as well and will happily pay full face value.
Pfffft.

Just spent over half an hour on the phone with the ticket office trying to get my season ticket working with my online account, loads of people are ringing up. The phone lines and website are jammed.

You'd have thought they would have anticipated this and employed a couple more phone lines?

They probably will when they're actually on sale, I'd hate to think how long it's gonna take on thursday if it took me 15 mins just to get through today.

Kinda irritating to ring up and be charged 5p a min and forced to listen to the same 2 minute message about fa cup tickets twice before you even get in the queue to be spoken to.

I'm after some extra tickets if any go up for sale. I can only get 2 tickets (1 season ticket) but have 3/4 friends wanting to come along. Would also save on fuel costs of getting down there if i can fill the car haha.

So looking for 4 max if anyone can help then please pm me :)

Not sure what I think of 2 per season ticket holder. Recent experience of gig tickets is that everyone buys up their full allocation, & flog those they don't want on ebay. We may have created a whole new generation of cyber ticket touts!
So much for me & my lad keeping our York & Wigan stubs!!
Again suggestions/offers where I could get 2 tickets at face value + reasonable costs let me know.

Spent around £200 so far this season on away matches, travel, etc.

Granted it's not as much as a season ticket, but when two tickets are available per ST holder, I don't think it's quite right.

Anybody who wants to go to the semi-final will be able to. There's no way we're selling the 32,000 tickets any time soon.

Now the final, that'll be interesting.
