Blackpool (A)

[Will95]

Heard rumours just 400-odd tickets sold so far. Back to usual this season already.

^That's better than I was expecting given it's Reading Festival weekend tbh

Bank holiday weekend in Blackpool though.

That's expensive though, and many will already have family commitments.

For example I went to Bolton yesterday, and will be doing pretty much every away game this season, but it's looking unlikely I'll be able to do Blackpool so any ticket I do get will be bought on the day.

[Will95]

I'm actually not keen on going to Blackpool, can't drink, been told it's a crap away end, but the fact it's a new ground for me is dragging me in.

Tis the reason I'm not going. I was planning on making this one of the away games I would go to, but I'd rather go to Reading Festival.

[PieEater]

Was planning to go but the online ticketing is fooked.

[Will95]

Got tickets now, row V seats 91-94. How far back does the stand go?

[Will95]

Also, when I bought my tickets today we had 74 tickets left for the executive area, so that is 529 tickets sold so far.

Tickets bought, and hotel booked. Rather spontaneous decision!

Where are people drinking before hand? Would be good to see a few fellow fans. Also bloke said only had a couple of hundred tickets left so I reckon we can get to around 700 or so!

[Will95]

I won't be there (generic grumble about not being 18 yet) but apparently the Old Bridge House is decent for away fans.

[PieEater]

My 3rd visit and yet to see us win. We'll be living it up at the Auctioneers - Wetherspoons pre match.

[Will95]

I got bored and looked into Blackpool pubs. Think my plan would be get down there earlyish and head into the Auctioneer and then move onto the Old Bridge House.

True, although it's a damnsite better than it was a few years ago before they put the roof on.

I was in the back row, stood up and nearly ended up in some poor bugger's garden behind the stand due to the 'fence' holding you in being pretty crap. Very good day out though, gutted to missing this.

Bank holiday weekend in Scotland < Reading festival though

[26-10-06]

How many tickets have been sold in advance? Does any body know?

Looks like the Weatherspoons for me before hand!
