Whoops, should have checked that before typing like a prat! So you are keeping the lower tier empty again I guess? When is it ever used?
Connor, as long as you have your membership number, which should be in brackets under the Customer Name product Description Quantity bit on the confirmation e-mail, you should be able to do it online tomorrow.
Yeah thai, the bottom tier is being left empty. It gets used when teams sell their allocation for the top tier and the police allow them to sell more tickets for the lower tier.
ok, that then begs the question........................... Who do the police allow in there? (I cannot recall ever seeing away fans in the lower tier). I am sure we have filled up the upper tier before now and the lower tier was not opened to take more. I mean! Little old Norwich are not exactly top of the hooligan list or even a Cat A for you guys.
Connor, if you buy your membership online it registers you as a member immediately so no need to wait for a card meaning you can buy a ticket tomorrow.
The last team I can remember in the lower tier were Wimbledon in the cup, think they brought about 4000
Correct me if i'm wrong Millwall, but the last time it was used for a league game was our visit in 2004 ?
Loving it Jimmy!! In the league since 2004 game V W**t H*m (Mother's Day Massacre I) we have had QPR (04/05), Crystal Palace (05/06) and Charlton (09/10; Mother's Day Massacre II) in the lower tier. I swear I can remember Leicester being given the lower tier when they visited us the season they got promoted from League 1. or maybe it was just a sell out in our end. Also, sometime around 2005 I thought I could remember WBA being given the lower tier also. we was gonna open it last season for the visit of QPR, but because of the whole non-event against Middlesborough the club didnt allow it.
I want to take this a step further then.................................... Why the hell do they not open it more often when demand requires it. As I said above, the likes of Norwich are not on your radar but when we are having a good season in the lower leagues (as we have done with you for some time now) we take a big following everywhere and could easily generate more revenue. Do the OB believe that having more than 2000 away fans = major disturbances outside the ground, regardless of who those fans are?
oh another question can someone buy me a ticket on my behalf if i give them my membership number at the office, because me and my bro want to sit together and if i buy online and he buys his in person it wud be hard to be together,. i cant get to the ticket office because its a-level results and by the time i finish and get to the den they will prob be sold out or queued to sell out
Get your brother to register his card online and then link the 2 together, can then buy 2 seats together
Connor - Yes. As long as they have your membership number and know your name, it should not be a problem. Thai - we have all been saying for a long time that it is wasted revenue having that part of the stadium empty, for both big games and not so big games. I am sure they could create some sort of barrier between away fans and Millwall fans for the smaller teams who only bring around 500/1000, if they both sat in the North stand. That will in turn create an even more electric atmosphere in that stand but the police costs would probably outweigh the ticket revenue. There is a way around it, but it is a nice "safety net" to have that gap between opposing fans at The Den. Also, I think nearly every time a team goes into that bottom tier, the robocops and horses are called in to stop fans clashing.
oh , what is my membership number because the only numbers i got is payment/recipt# and client ref number
