Leicester giving about another 100 away tickets this year it looks like. 3,305 allocation for the ev on boxing day.
Moves to midweek if we make League Cup final. That might actually be a negative should we be challenging for the title and it's moved to April. More will go missing!

Yea no problem. Did Chelsea drop to 13 or sell out on late sale on 14?

Heard some people logged on before Spurs 15 credit sale started and couldn't basket anything. However if you and some others bought on 15 Doug (albeit very few of you) I will edit my above table, the main purpose is to show the maximum possible credits each person can end up on after this season.

Can someone confirm Swansea dropped to 17 please.

No I think Swansea sold out at 18.  Can you confirm what Middlesbrough sold out at in the 1st sale (before the returns)?

Also just need what Southampton sold out in the initial sale?  I'm creating my own spreadsheet :)  I had 14 aways last season & so far I have 6 out of 12, with no real chance of getting Sunderland via returns.  So the max I can get for next season is 13, but still got Watford & Hull away which are likely to be small allocations.

Think it went to 17, but very few tickets, I can't honestly remember as I was personally way off for getting a ticket.  It went to 18 on 27/09 at 1100 then 17 on same day @ 1400.

Apparently Man Utd are making all their fans collect tickets on the day (with ID) for their Leicester away game. Previously they've been doing selective numbers I think, will be interesting to see how it goes but sounds a logistical nightmare and unfair on genuine fans who have to pass their tickets on.

That will be chaos considering how much the allocation is at the king power.

Exactly, where the hell will they do it? More than 3k Mancs queuing at a hotel in Leicester?! They'll need to hand out time slots or something! It's a Sunday game too I think so what a nightmare for people with specific travel plans.

They also give fans the option to return their tickets right up to and including match day by telephone...

So no genuine fans have to not collect their tickets or miss out as the club resell it

Do they, didn't realise that. Do they then resell them somehow at ultra short notice? Still not great if you want to pass one on to a relative or something which I think should be taken into account somehow.

From the Man utd website:

Leicester City Ticket Collection Information

As you may be aware, we are undertaking domestic away game validations with the primary objective of getting back to receiving full ticket allocations at as many away games as possible.

To help achieve that, we need to demonstrate to clubs that we have stopped the very small minority of fans that have previously caused trouble at away grounds from receiving tickets, and ensure that the people allocated tickets are actually the supporters using them (it is our understanding that this minority did not obtain tickets directly through the Club).

With this in mind, and as agreed in the Fans' Forum, we have implemented a number of ticket checks / validations over the past few seasons for away games. Despite having validated just c3k Season Tickets since we began the process in 2013/14 (mainly due to the lack of suitable locations for collections at / near away grounds), these validation exercises are showing positive signs of working. Post-match observations from the Police and stewards have pointed to improved fan behaviour at away matches, we negotiated the full allocation for West Ham (for the first time since 2009) and additionally, Hull City have allocated more tickets to us for the EFL Cup semi-final than we are entitled to (historically they have reduced our allocation).

Therefore we will now start to apply pressure on other clubs to increase our allocation, as well as making representations to the Premier League to contest any ongoing / further reductions. However, we kindly request that fans help self-police at away games, to ensure that gangways are kept clear which will undoubtedly help our cause.

To facilitate the validation process, after a lot of planning we have managed to secure a suitable location for the Leicester City game, and will be inviting all successful applicants to collect their ticket in Leicester on the day of the game.

Supporters will only be able to collect their own ticket in Leicester, with a passport or driving license as proof of identification. Additional details of the specific collection point location, and opening times can be found here, and will also be sent to each registered ticket holder, along with a ticket exchange voucher in the next couple of weeks.

If supporters are unable to collect their match ticket as requested, they will need to contact us on 0161 868 8000 to cancel the ticket before 5pm on Sunday 8th January. Please note, around 30% of people who have been asked to collect their ticket this season haven't done so.


Please click here to view our ticket allocation information for all domestic away matches played throughout the 2016/17 season.

If you know you can't go don't buy a ticket. This is the point utd are trying to sort out.

I have no away league credits and rely on good people I have met over the years passing them on. Would I have a better chance of going to away games on my own credits if the ticket would have to be in the name of the person who bought it? Of course I would but I would do the same if I was on the ladder but couldn't go and knew I got to keep the credit. Yes I would

From the Man utd website:

Leicester City Ticket Collection Information

As you may be aware, we are undertaking domestic away game validations with the primary objective of getting back to receiving full ticket allocations at as many away games as possible.

To help achieve that, we need to demonstrate to clubs that we have stopped the very small minority of fans that have previously caused trouble at away grounds from receiving tickets, and ensure that the people allocated tickets are actually the supporters using them (it is our understanding that this minority did not obtain tickets directly through the Club).

With this in mind, and as agreed in the Fans' Forum, we have implemented a number of ticket checks / validations over the past few seasons for away games. Despite having validated just c3k Season Tickets since we began the process in 2013/14 (mainly due to the lack of suitable locations for collections at / near away grounds), these validation exercises are showing positive signs of working. Post-match observations from the Police and stewards have pointed to improved fan behaviour at away matches, we negotiated the full allocation for West Ham (for the first time since 2009) and additionally, Hull City have allocated more tickets to us for the EFL Cup semi-final than we are entitled to (historically they have reduced our allocation).

Therefore we will now start to apply pressure on other clubs to increase our allocation, as well as making representations to the Premier League to contest any ongoing / further reductions. However, we kindly request that fans help self-police at away games, to ensure that gangways are kept clear which will undoubtedly help our cause.

To facilitate the validation process, after a lot of planning we have managed to secure a suitable location for the Leicester City game, and will be inviting all successful applicants to collect their ticket in Leicester on the day of the game.

Supporters will only be able to collect their own ticket in Leicester, with a passport or driving license as proof of identification. Additional details of the specific collection point location, and opening times can be found here, and will also be sent to each registered ticket holder, along with a ticket exchange voucher in the next couple of weeks.

If supporters are unable to collect their match ticket as requested, they will need to contact us on 0161 868 8000 to cancel the ticket before 5pm on Sunday 8th January. Please note, around 30% of people who have been asked to collect their ticket this season haven't done so.

Personally think this is brilliant

LFC could learn a lot from how they communicate with their fans about allocations and where the tickets go as well

Fair play to them

It is brilliant except for those on 18/19 credits who haven't been to an away for years and tout them every single away game.

So you have to collect them during the day?? We have (probably) an evening KO. Unfair to make people go there for the afternoon to collect them IMO. Would need to be near the ground I would think but still, would be concerned about missing KO

We are a team of one half.

So 30% haven't picked up their tickets when done in this way. Seems like a very high proportion?

I've got 19 credits, go every week and think it'd be fucking stupid.

I'd quite like to spend my day off work having a drink with my mates, not going to a random place and have to change my plans massively. No thanks.

And get there earlier which means maybe more time off work....

Not to mention leaving even earlier - given we have to leave at 5am at times!! Just not practical.

Let's just hope our club doesn't go for this.

Utd said they did spot checks first on ID - that would be a better first step IMO though prob not without it's issues
