Excited Canary 19 Posted January 20, 2010 Hey there, just entered myself into the ballet and it turns out I am a grade C applicant. They said they have yet to recieve 892 applications, but there will be more to come, I''m sure.So just posting to ask what do you think the chances of me getting a ticket are and how do you know if you have a ticket or not?Thanks.

Col Canary 0 Posted January 21, 2010 I think you will be very lucky to get one.Consider that ColU was 1900 tickets and there were still people in Grade C (season tickets only & members with 10 stubs) that didnt get tickets (I was one).With our current form I expect this one to be heavily oversubscribed.

Captain Holt 580 Posted January 21, 2010 Don''t forget Col Who was a massive game, and pretty local. Brighton is further away so you have more chance IMO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Slob 0 Posted January 21, 2010 Ye but people in group 2, are people who go to alot of games, hence why they have 10 stubs, i expect about 50-100 tickets for group 3, you might be lucky in the fact that alot in group 3 wont apply thinking they haven''t got a chance of getting one Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Woman in the Stands (WITS) 0 Posted January 21, 2010 This is a big tie for Brighton. I have a mate who''s a Brighton fan and it''s being billed as a biggie. He couldn''t get tickets for his class for this game whereas last season he was able to take a coach load from his school. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
