Subject: [LU] number of tickets
If the Millennium holds 72,500 is there any chance of LUFC getting any
more tickets ?
As I understand it we asked for and received the maximum allowed which is
35,000. Watford (I have heard) have asked for 28,000- if true will we be able
to obtain the other 7,000 they have not asked for or will they keep parts of
the ground empty ?
My mate is going tomorrow for our tickets but now I am beginning to
worry. Have Leeds got their sums correct especially with the fact they were
allowing people to join the membership today and then buy Final tickets - did
they stop it in time, had they worked out how many they could sell
and still have enough for all ST holders x2 plus all members !!
Will all tickets be gone tomorrow or is it just the fact they have so few
staff which has led to the 5 hour queues.
I find it strange that 'fans' have stopped going to ER allegedly because
of the price of tickets yet are prepared to pay £30 (or is it still £45) to
become members then pay a minimum of £32 (max £66) for a trip to Cardiff but
£20 is too much for a normal league game !! Even stranger when you consider,
at least for Leeds based fans, how much it costs to go to Cardiff compared to
a trip to ER.(£30 on the coach from ER)
Whilst I am glad that we are raking the money in, I just hope no ST
holder or member misses out to one of these glory hunters (especially not me
and mine !!)
