natncfc 0 Posted March 3, 2011 Morning all,Never been to porta-loo road for EED before, how hard is it to get a ticket?Not a season ticket holder what are my chances?Your input would be appreciated! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alysha 0 Posted March 3, 2011 Yeah I''d like to know this too. I''m a season ticket holder; been to 3 away matches, anyone know what my chances are? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paul 0 Posted March 3, 2011 It will be done by ballot and we normally get around 3,00 tickets.All away season ticket holders and people who have 10 away stubs in the last year will get tickets the rest will go to a ballot and it''s pot luck.I got one 2 years ago but last year didn''t for the Colchester or Charlton game (although i got in a Charlton in the home fans end and nearly got kicked out as I was celebrating promotion at the end lol) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

"""""""""Ben """"""""""" 0 Posted March 3, 2011 I went a few years ago (the season after we were relegated from the Prem) and wasn''t a season ticket holder but was a member and got 2 tickets in the ballot, was very surprised to get them though. I very much doubt you would get one this year though espeically as we''re doing so well in the league. Also as we''ve had quite a big away following in most games this year i''d imagin there will be quite a lot of people applying in priority group 2 (season ticket holders with 10 away match stubs in the last 12 months). It''s worth a try though, never know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
e10_yellow 0 Posted March 3, 2011 Tickets almost certainly won''t go to those below group 3 this year. Worth a try if you are in group 3 though, I was lucky for both Colchester and Charlton last year. Got my ten stubs now so bring it on... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Smith 2,610 Posted March 3, 2011 It will be hard to get tickets this year as people who haven''t bothered going because of the stupid kick off times will be up for it this time. If you are not even a season ticket holder then I suspect you won''t get one unless a mate can get one for you. Hopefully with it being an evening game and everyone on the beers for the afternoon there will be a more lairy atmosphere and less of a happy clappy, "family" dynamic than in recent years!

Pinks 0 Posted March 3, 2011 I''ve been to most in recent years but in the home end. Perhaps I could book 3,000 tickets this year and get a few more City fans in Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now if it was an afternoon kick off I would normally only have a couple. Stupid to change the game to an evening it''s asking for trouble, but I love it and can even hit Ipwich town centre after the game if we win. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ellis206 0 Posted March 3, 2011 ok do you need 10 away stubbs for this season? or for the previous 12 months, and is that the previous 12 months from the day of the Ipswich game? or 12 months from when the tickets go on sale? I''ve done about 7 away games this year, though going to Leicester next week so I should easily make the 10 stubbs but if not I have loads from last season. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

e10_yellow 0 Posted March 3, 2011 ellis206 - It''s the previous 12 months from the date when you submit your stubs, so you could register them before the Ipswich applications open if the dates work out better depending on what games you''ve been to. So guessing that the Ipswich applications might be open around the 1st April (3 weeks before the game), if you wait until then a speculative guess is that the only stubs you could use from last season would be from Tranmere, Orient, Charlton and Bristol Rovers.

Bradwell Yellow 0 Posted March 3, 2011 I can''t make many away games due to work, so i''m always placed in group 3 which i believe is Season Ticket Holders with no away stubs. Out of the two times i''ve been there, i have been successful with the club once, and that was the season before relegation. So the chances are usually pretty slim considering our away form this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

beaver 0 Posted March 3, 2011 i would be very surprised if they gave us that many tickets but you never know . will be there anyway 1 way or another .have always found you can tickets if you try hard enough and try any avenue . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alysha 0 Posted March 3, 2011 I take it stubs are the amount of away games you have made in a year, but what is this about registering them? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
e10_yellow 0 Posted March 3, 2011 You have to take the actual ticket stubs to the ticket office (or I think you can post them) to get it registered on the system that you have 10 - the club don''t have a computer record of what you''ve bought. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bradwell Yellow 0 Posted March 4, 2011 I reckon you could possibly expect more of the same Yellow Blood if you do it again this year. I think a few City fans might take over and help them out with their attendance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My friend works in the ticket office and assures me that Portsmouth were actually allocated 1500 tickets and only sold 900 of them. For our game at PR we will be allocated 2200 tickets, 1700 in the upper tier and 500 in the family area lower tier.They can''t allocate anymore than that as it would mean having to move their season ticket holders which no club would do.
