NICK07 1 Posted March 22, 2010 Sadly I was unable to get a ticket for the Leeds game on Saturday.I know the club has been appealing to season ticket holders who can''t go to the match to put their seat up for buy-back sale, but if any tickets do go on sale through this method when will the club announce if any buy-back tickets are available? and when will they sell the buy-back tickets? Im guessing both will be sometime on Saturday, but don''t know what times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DDD In The Fine City 1 Posted March 22, 2010 My advice would be get to the club before anyone else, camp out if need be, there aint gonna be many up for grabs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ca 1 Posted March 22, 2010 Best idea would be to ring the club and ask them, they''ll know more than us lot on here.Good Luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
I am a Banana 0 Posted March 22, 2010 all tickets must be sold back to the club by either 12 or 1. can remember the exact time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
e10_yellow 0 Posted March 22, 2010 They normally go on sale at 1pm I think. You''ll want to get down in the morning to start off the queue I reckon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Suffolk exile 0 Posted March 22, 2010 Call the club. I think they go on sale when the office opens - might be 10 or 11am. For best chance get there 2 hours before then recouperate in the pub with your ticket. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rupethebear 0 Posted March 22, 2010 It''s a nightmare, that''s why I advertised my ticket on here.

UEA Canary 0 Posted March 22, 2010 its deemed illegal to want to sell on a ticket face value to a friend or fellow fan if they can no longer make the game. stupid rule which is why the ticket page got removed. wont stop it happening though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rupethebear 0 Posted March 22, 2010 Of course it won''t, they will remove the thread but it may take a while, and it only takes a second to help out another City fan!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NICK07 1 Posted March 23, 2010 I took someone''s advise and phoned the ticket office, but sadly what they told me wasn''t good news.They said that you have to phone the TO at 9am on Saturday to see if there will be any Buy-Back tickets on sale and if there are any tickets available they will go on sale at 1pm on Saturday.The reason that isn''t good news is that I live near to London. If I phone the ticket office at 9am and then leave home, I will be pushing it to get to the ground for 1pm and there will probably be a big queue in front of me. If I leave home before 9am to get to the ground early and then phone the TO at 9am I may find that there are no Buy-Back tickets for sale and that my journey is a waste of time. So either way im stuffed.Oh well, any one got a spare ticket??????? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DDD In The Fine City 1 Posted March 23, 2010 Get to the ticket office first, there will be at least 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can always stop halfway and call the ticket office.Worth risking getting half way and having to turn back I''d say. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lambert is King 0 Posted March 23, 2010 Got to agree there will be at least 1 but problem is what time to get there - could be people there at 6am who knows. The club often put the odd ticket in that they have not used ie FITC coach cant make it. I would also suggest anyone who is going to give a season ticket away tries and gives it to one of those in the quee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Young One 0 Posted March 23, 2010 I need tickets for the Leeds game either 1 Adult or 1 Adult and 1 child or 1 adult and 2 child (I Can take the Children) I am a long term fan but sadly didn''t renew my season ticket this year (Redundancy) please PM mecheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ca 1 Posted March 24, 2010 Think all season ticket holders had an email today asking them to ring the club if we can''t make the game on Sat so there will hopefully be some for sale Sat for the people who still need one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canary Wanderer 0 Posted March 25, 2010 My Subtle request has been bumped off the Noticeboard - A true Canary living out of the City has no chance of getting a ticket . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Irn Bru Canary 0 Posted March 25, 2010 Does anyone else think that the buy-back scheme is too heavily favoured towards the club.£10 for an adult season ticket holder which is then sold on at full price by the club.£3 for a childs season ticket which could be sold on at full adult price.The money is then held by the club potentially for 12 months before it becomes available to use against your next season ticket.I know that it is great to get bums on seats and create atmosphere but it has to be fair to all parties.Wish I could use such a mark up in my own business.Comments?
