Tickets (News and Issues)

[Gash]

Just out atm so cant check, are they £70 or any less? x

Just looked, first two I checked were Upper South, £62 for an adult. They're normal tickets, not resale but there's lots of resale all over the ground which I would imagine are a similar price.

I can't wait till we've got our first visit out the way as I see plenty of resale single tickets for virtually every game but trying to get tickets together once I've had my inevitable ballot failure is like finding hen's teeth.

You can chose the the option of seats together when you're looking, there's a few together for tomorrow. Maybe even get 2x2 if there's 4 of you?

Tomorrow is too short notice now. It's me, little un and my sister so all our ballot apps have been for three together. A 2 and a single might work realistically and I have high hopes for the Wolves fixture in January on an evening, but the other games setting parameters for two together so far has been hopeless.

Even for the Newcastle match I was wondering whether to the bother with the ballot for a single ticket when I could probably wait and have my pick of seats in the stadium on resale.

Think the ballot might only really be worth it for the likes of the shite, Man City, Man United, etc.

Agreed. These games and games where you want to sit together are the only sense I can see in the ballot now. £160 on two adult and one junior plus membership to be 0/5 has been pretty frustrating.
If I had it in me to lie to a six year old and tell her I was going to work all day, I could have probably been to 4 out of the 5 games I applied for so far.

What do you mean?

Watching Everton *is* work.

I come back from that place well worse off than I do my actual office

Forest tickets on sale today but I'm not bothering with the ballot. There are going to be tickets for it on the resale and I'd rather have my choice of where to sit rather than it being based on a random spot in 2 stands.

Got a ticket for Forest through the ballot. Has anyone done the walk from Limestreet to HD and back straight after the game.

What's the timing like on a brisk walk back?

Looking at 30/40 minutes.

Right down the waterfront is starting to get "future wembley way" vibes.
But imagine it's pretty grim of the weather is against you in December though

Should take you no longer than 40mins.

Even straight after the game the crowd moves pretty quickly.

[Mouse]

Yep, allow 40 mins each way and you'll be fine.

If time's an issue I think that cutting straight over to Great Howard Street from the stadium (even if it means initially walking north if you exit at the south of the stadium) is going to save you a few minutes. It avoids the bottleneck at the little bridge on the dock road which can be pretty slow to get through, basically you can walk at your own pace the whole way if you cut over to Great Howard Street.

That advice only applies to the way back btw, nicer to walk down the dock road on your way to the ground for sure.
