Just had a look at their ticket sales, absolutely diabolical. Why not give us 5-7000 rather than 3300?

This is what annoys me most. Teams should be made to keep 2 blocks next to the away fans free and sell them last if the home demand is there.

And we now end up with loads of Reds who generally struggle to get tickets buying tickets in the home end. Around 9000 unsold. Absolutely senseless.

Same as Derby last season, ridiculous.

Doubtful. I bet loads are holding tickets in baskets at the moment waiting for it to drop.

~~Usual inconsistency that they haven't closed the website today~~

They've taken the game off the site to clear all the tickets from baskets. It'll go back on at 11am

Yeah was trying for a mate. Dont think there were any tickets on sale at 11

Smurfite · « **Reply #49 on:** September 8, 2017, 11:30:54 am »

My mate managed to get me one at 11:00 but between us it took 3 lads and a total of 9 devices at one go just to get 1 ticket.

DougLFC94 · « **Reply #50 on:** September 8, 2017, 11:31:55 am »

Got nothing. Better chance will come next week when returns are in

There was 1 ticket in block 2 which had been sitting there from about 9am this morning. Clearly lots of people scrambling for the one ticket.

Agree with other comments about LCFC only giving us 3,000 tickets, madness. What happened to the 15% rule?

Got scrapped and reduced to 10%. Knocked quite a few off the ladder, myself included - I got lucky with getting a Southampton ticket last year which got me back on.

I'd been eyeing up that one but it weren't even the one I got. The one I got was in M1 row AA.

Think it was 14/15 it changed to 10%. 11/12 was definitely 15%. 12/13 the same I think judging by the West Brom allocation. 13/14 we didn't get 15% at Man U but we never did on safety grounds.

I have no problem it being 10% if the home team can sell out. But they should be fined if they don't allocate more visitor tickets and then there are empty seats all over the home sections. Also creates security risks as means away fans in home sections.

Have the club subsidised this? The actual price on my tickets are £2 (£3 in the case of juniors) more than LFC charged.

Shanklygates · « **Reply #56 on:** September 8, 2017, 09:31:58 pm »

Good spot!

https://tickets.lcfc.com/en-gb/categories/home%20tickets
£10 to STH and Members, then £12 on general sale, so LFC must be doing the same but it probably won;t get to the last bit

There might be a few FCH in our qualifying lot but very few I reckon.

Gurj88 · « **Reply #57 on:** September 9, 2017, 07:54:04 pm »

I decided to buy tickets from Leicester City for this as I knew I had no chance in getting with our own supporters. Logged onto Leicester City site on Thursday and they had at least 12,000 tickets left to sell and ended up getting tickets in front row seats at the half way mark.

Clubs can only charge away teams the same price as the equivalent section in the home end - so if the entire home end is £10 for some of the sale to Leicester fans then that has to be the price for us. Its happened a few times for cup games where clubs do season ticket discounts, which gets passed on to away fans.
Also I guess why the rest of the Annie Rd lower is expensive compared to Kop seats - so we can charge away fans more.

except we charge away fans max of £30. Kop is cheaper just because of tradition, not demand

dan7hughes · « **Reply #62 on:** September 11, 2017, 12:49:21 pm »

I didn't say there wasn't demand for the kop?!

Just guessing why the annie road lower seats are so much (price to sit at the back of 127 compared to most other parts of the ground is ridiculous). Didn't realise we capped away ticket prices, although that makes it worse for the fans in the home end of annie rd lower!

Me neither. Ordered on the first day of sale but I'll take some comfort that not everyone else has received their tickets yet

Mine arrived last week from the 1st sale, they don't seem to have any sort of procedure for sending out tickets do they?

Got my lot yesterday (from first sale), so anyone waiting for theirs may come today/tomorrow

Waiting on tickets from 3 sales (4 including Newcastle), Leicester LC 2nd sale (1st sale received), Leicester League 1st sale + a single for City away in the 7+ sale which never arrived!

My ticket from the 3 sale last Wednesday arrived this morning to Dublin that's the quickest turn around I've experienced

Shanklygates · « **Reply #75 on:** September 12, 2017, 01:11:37 pm »

Ours ordered Tues came Thurs - much faster than City. So maybe the League ones will come today.... then Newc by the weekend if we are very lucky!

They mucked up Watford for loads - sending them to the wrong address - and rang to say they were sorting it, but as some say, it doesn't look that well sorted yet

Hij · « **Reply #76 on:** September 12, 2017, 01:26:26 pm »

Postman just dropped off two to work and my house is literally round the corner so probably dropped off the other one as well.

Limited returns available at 2pm for those on 1. Sold out before I could even get onto seat selection page.

anfieldash · « **Reply #79 on:** September 12, 2017, 02:10:41 pm »

Bit of chaos at 2pm for returns.
Looked like it was just a row of ten.
Missed out first time on the dot, but after refreshing for a couple of minutes got two together
