Colchester Ticket Thread

dont think they will just over a 100 left and a lot would have left it til today? but if they did you would have to be there bloody early.....
 
u do know that it says sold out because they sold it to our ticket office!!!
there are loads left!!!

im going to try and get my tickets on monday
 
So why did they not put the article up on the site until this am. I went to the ticket office at 09.00 this morning hoping to get a couple of tickets as there was nothing on the OS or on here to say we had officially sold out only to find a note on the door saying sold out.

Would have been nice to know that before I made my wasted journey :headbang:
 
mab> good point i bet you wernt the only 1,i would be well p off if i had taken the morning off to go to the TO why not put it on the OS sat night?

Maybe because we fort we were getting more tickets but ever the Police or Colchester United or Our Club said no to it

according to a scum fan more available on request on their site,surley if available we would take some?

and why would they not want as much money as possible,with a new ground and upto this game very poor attendances?
 
About 7000 tickets in total sold now so it will be the biggest attendance for a league game so far at the WHCS, there will be a lot more sold this week and on the day so I expect a crowd of over 8000.

well there will be now we are sold out!


8000 so that leaves 2000 empty seats,they should have give us the north stand aswell then they might of sold out(seregation would have also been good),6000 home fans could have fitted in the east and west,instead theres a lot of our lot in home ends and a lot that havent bothered due to tickets,and 2000 empty seats?because you couldnt sell them,CUFC and police really didnt think this through...

Hopefully no trouble then, its not worth it these days you can get a ban just by giving someone a dirty look!
I think if the game is high scoring and a bit volatile like the one at your place earlier in the season things could kick off, and I dont mean the game ;)

I hope you boys enjoy your day, support your team 100% and give the plod a wide berth.

surlely better to give enough tickets initially if they wernt getting sold anyway?
now theres the problem of away fans in the wrong end.
plus 2000 fans at average 22 quid ahead could have meant an extra
40000 + quid for doing nothing extra(maybe a few extra stewards)?

Yes I get your point hindle but I suppose if they gave your lot 4000 tickets and then we needed more than 6000, they would be accused of ignoring their own fans. They could not split a stand easily because of the concourse areas below are all open to both sides of the stand, the only one that can be split is the away stand. I think they will be looking out for away fans in the home areas on Saturday, if they behave themseves I think it will be ok, but if there is any trouble they will be chucked out. We had a similar problem at Ipswich as we filled the away stand and had fans in the home areas as well, Ipswich fans were doing their best to get Colchester fans ejected resulting in some pretty dodgy moments for the stewards.
