My mate went to The Valley early afternoon today and was told we'd sold out.
I’d strongly suggest this was false mate
Not false. Went there myself and this is what I was told. Family Stand only. Took my phone number as club was asking for more.
Unless this is another example of club staff’s incompetence.
Fair enough @Tom_Hovi but it doesn’t really add up to me. So are you saying you tried to buy a ticket and was refused?
We had 600 left yesterday. If numbers were dwindling I would have expected them to have put out some notification via the various comms outlets. Have you been advised of anything @Ollywozere ?
Yes, I went into the Club Shop around 2:30 today, asked for a ticket and was told none available. Only Family Stand and as I don’t possess any children was told I couldn’t have one. She took my number as “We’ve asked for more tickets but won’t know until morning if they’re letting us have any.”
Silly when you think not too many taking young kids away.
Even sillier when I think I am taking my son and they never mentioned a family stand!
'Arry Addick I will take one of your spares. Please call me to arrange or let me know if they have already been snaffled. Thanks. Colin on 07421 458142.
I've got an adult & an U18's in the away end behind the goal & will gladly swap / buy 2 of the same in the Family Stand. I don't know if I can give back the U18's ticket & someone just buys the adult from me. All a bit daft really.
any particular pubs to aim for haven't been before so don't know where to head.
It's my favourite away day, living in Northampton... in terms of pubs, depends what you're after, turn right out of the station and you've got: - The Thomas A Becket - The Foundry Tavern - Working Mens Club - Sevens - probably the best of the bunch here
In that order within a 10 minute walk of the station, from Sevens you're looking at a 20 minute walk up the hill to the Sixfields complex which has got a couple of pubs, fast food, etc.
Left out of the station and you're heading back towards town where there are a number of pubs, and various taxi ranks.
If you were after real ale, the Albion Brewery is a 10-15 minute walk from the station, and The Malt Shovel offers a 6-10 real ales five minutes further along.
Enjoy.
just to mention that the albion brewery and malt shovel are in the opposite direction to the ground when you come out of the station main entrance (if you care!)
Only recently learnt about Walter Tull so hoping to visit his statue before the match, a really incredible story worth reading up on if you aren't aware already.
Tickets behind the goal have all gone. There are tickets on sale in the East Stand still on sale, either on-line or phone (but for collection) or from the ticket office before 1pm. You do NOT need to have a child. Phone orders, and presumably on-line, can be collected up to 5pm from the club shop.
Driving to this one from Gloucester, the club website mentions parking on site, is this the best to head towards or does it fill early? Anyone got any advice/local info re parking?

I went last season mate and parked in this area. No restrictions and about a mile from the ground.

Still not convinced that our Ticket Office staff know what they are doing but just had a phone call from them to say that they now have East Stand (ie non-Family area) tickets available again!!

I parked on site last year, massive field next to the ground, very easy. Think it was about £3.50 or may have been a fiver.

Ed - please amend title of thread
currently 1100 sold - which i don't think is that bad tbh, new ground for me.
NB the title needs correcting as it's not only family tickets.
That’s been said before and been untrue
