Jim Smith 2,314 Posted April 4, 2011 If ballots from previous years are anything to go by anyone in group 3 other than males aged between 18 and 50 probably has a decent chance. The less mobile and likely to have a ruck you are the better your chances! Those who tick the coach travel option on the application form also appear to be particularly "lucky" when this sort of thing is being drawn!For those taking the plunge and going in with the binners I would suggest avoiding the north stand. The south stand has also on occasion had a few lads in it when i''ve been there although not enough to cause concern to a decent sized group. Anywere down the sides is pretty tame.

......and Smith must score. 1,331 Posted April 4, 2011 Agree with Jim.Over the years I''ve been in all four stands at Portman Road and down the sides is safest. The best place I think is the stand where the City fans will be. I had to sit in there with my son and the Ipswich fans when we lost 5-0. It was like Portman Road''s version of the City Stand, all blokes and couples older than me, with lots of tartan blankets and flasks of tea in evidence.When their third goal went in the old chap sitting next to me said, " I reckon you must be Norwich fans ". As we sat there dejected for the third time of what turned out to be five while all around waved their programmes and shouted " Hurrah " we knew we''d have to get up real early to catch him out.Yes, I think it''ll be safe enough in there......

Col Canary 0 Posted April 4, 2011 [quote user="Brighton Yellow"]Can anyone advise as to where is best to sit in the home sections of Portaloo Road as it appears I have been unsuccessful in the ballot? I am considering having to do this despite having been to over 10 away games in the past 12 months, from which I have annoyingly lost most stubs when moving house.[/quote]Lots of City in South Stand (The old Churchman''s adjacent to away fans) and Cobbold block E (next to away fans). Plenty of tickets for South Stand still available online. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Col Canary 0 Posted April 4, 2011 [quote user="CT"]Just rang the ticket office in relation to getting dropped off at Barton Mills on the way back from Swansea...apparently the people in group 3 wont know anything until thursday at the earliest.Hope this helps [:)][/quote]You''ll know because you''ll get a letter from the club either with a ticket or a "bad luck, better luck next time". OR Check your online banking credit card account which will be debited the cash in a few days if you''re successful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

e10_yellow 0 Posted April 5, 2011 Given there''s a message passed on above from the ticket office saying they''re not doing the ballot until they close tonight, what do you expect anyone else to be able to tell you?At least they''ve got their act together to sort it out well ahead of time - for Charlton last year I didn''t even find out I''d been successful until five days before the match.Happily a P2 now with a £34.50 payment to NCFC showing up on my bank account this morning...

@jayncfc 0 Posted April 5, 2011 Sorrry was that P2 meant to mean group 2? As in 10 stubs? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
