Doesn't hospitality sort you a Wembley ticket now? Probably why

Yeah only Centenary club is left.

It does? Soon there will be nothing but hospitality and sponsor tickets for Wembley.

Wasn't aware that if you bought hospitality tickets for each round you'd qualify, but that make sense as all hospitality get priority

From Plymouth Argyle's website

I hope we get an allocation like this at some point this season

That's a big allocation. After the ACS and hospitality I'm not surprised to be honest that this sold out in the members sale!

Does anyone know the exact numbers enrolled on the ACS?

Decent allocation for them. Based on their average attendance of 8,984 then 8,633 can go. Only 351~ would miss out if they all decide to go. Was hoping with their entire average attendance and it being so far and at 1:30pm I might still get a ticket on my own card for this one. My own fault for not being quick off the mark when my payment bounced though.

I guess I should be glad as a football fan that as many of them as possible will be able to go.

I might get into the ground late due to the train times. How late will they let you in does anyone know?

You should be fine up to HT. The stewards outside will direct you to an open turnstile.

Shanklygates · « **Reply #933 on:** December 28, 2016, 01:39:08 pm »

"The Late Gate" - used to be Main Stand side of the Kop but obv it would depend on what stand you are in

And soon after HT they probably open the doors for people who prefer to leave early ans miss loads of the match

PaulKS · « **Reply #934 on:** December 28, 2016, 02:24:53 pm »

I was 40 mins late for the 0-3 Real Madrid game and they let me in through turnstile A i think for block 306

Shanklygates · « **Reply #935 on:** December 28, 2016, 04:12:22 pm »

That's the equivalent of where it used to be

ACS ticket arrived today. Bit of a pain the 1330 KO on a Sunday so had to pay a premium on my train fare. Hope we can go on a good FA Cup run this season.

kratos · « **Reply #937 on:** January 2, 2017, 02:28:17 pm »

Is this likely to be on sale again to members?

PaulKS · « **Reply #938 on:** January 4, 2017, 01:59:56 pm »

Back on sale to members and sth tomorrow morning

stevienash · « **Reply #939 on:** January 5, 2017, 08:21:21 am »

sold out already

kalle-anka · « **Reply #940 on:** January 5, 2017, 08:26:02 am »

Got one for a mate but not as many returns as I expected.

stoz · « **Reply #941 on:** January 5, 2017, 09:29:35 am »

Just got one. A few still popping up.

Shanklygates · « **Reply #942 on:** January 5, 2017, 12:24:52 pm »

it'll be interesting to see how many turn up for this. If a lot have just bought for the credit and their seats are empty, I think it needs raising via the SC Re cancelling credits etc

Yep, agree. There will always be occasions where people have genuine reasons for not making it because of illness, travel issues, family emergencies etc...

But something like a second no-show within a 12 month period should result in that credit being removed.

matt_lfc · « **Reply #944 on:** January 5, 2017, 12:46:15 pm »

Can't be done simply because if you enter the auto cup scheme your paying for the games no matter what, when the game could be Fri,Sat,Sun or Mon.

What if that person could make the Saturday but not the Sunday? Then the next round is on TV on the Monday night at less than 3 weeks notice?

You can't return the seat like you can a league game.

If people are prepared to lose the money then its upto them, the club still has that money there not losing out.

dudleyred · « **Reply #945 on:** January 5, 2017, 12:54:40 pm »

Yes agreed although like has been said above there are genuine occasions sometimes - if it were easy to do on these cheaper matches then charge a full league price and then if your card is used you get the difference refunded. The perfect storm of team playing well, Christmas present opportunity, cheap prices caused a very quick sell out - again as has been said before ACS next year should be loyalty based initially

matt_lfc · « **Reply #946 on:** January 5, 2017, 12:59:15 pm »

You could even throw last seasons situation as an example:

Exeter away then reply at home 12 days later - West Ham home 10 days later then reply 10 days later.

Wonder how many on here would admit to buying Exeter/West Ham for the credit and didn't go?

kratos · « **Reply #947 on:** January 5, 2017, 01:31:55 pm »

Very disappointed not to have got a ticket for this. Logged online 8.15am and two tickets appeared but wouldn't let me purchase a single seat. And after that, it was sold out.

I counted 9 on the exchange on here that were available this morning, might be worth a look.

Tiger Tony · « **Reply #949 on:** January 5, 2017, 01:55:55 pm »

I really don't think there will be empty seats. There are more asking on the exchange than tickets being offered. The RAWK exchange is always a good barometer of the likelihood of empty seats. There isn't a ton of spares offered posts like there was for Stoke home league game last season amongst others. Whilst some have bought for the credit only, there are multiple easy opportunities to pass on

Shanklygates · « **Reply #950 on:** January 5, 2017, 05:09:04 pm »

I hope they do then. It's sad if there are empty seats when so many want to go.

Joff123 · « **Reply #951 on:** January 8, 2017, 03:32:32 pm »

Home Park holds 17,441 but has an away end of 4,000 so will be interesting to see our allocation, 15% rule is 2,616.

willfc · « **Reply #952 on:** January 8, 2017, 03:34:02 pm »

Any ideas on what the criteria could be? No way we'd get 4000, 2.6k seems likely.

swoopy · « **Reply #953 on:** January 8, 2017, 03:40:01 pm »

YESSSS we're in the 4th round draw!!

simo71 · « **Reply #954 on:** January 8, 2017, 03:42:49 pm »

Yeh, no chance we get more than the absolute minimum. Depends how far back they go. Anyone with exeter last year is guaranteed, then its a guessing game, Oldham 2013 was a similar allocation.

Considering it's midweek and at the other end of the planet, is there any chance of Plymouth (a) going down to members or general sale?

probably, about the same chance of us winning the champions league this season
