Home leg on sale tomorrow to STH's with the same prices as the City game. Hopefully the 'general sale' is restricted to those with a purchase history. I think we also find out away leg details tomorrow? Really interesting to see what the club take but I really hope it's more than the normal 1000 or so as don't think I'll get one if that's the case. Really hard one for the club to judge though in fairness as not a lot to compare to. Will get stick no matter what. Think we took about 4k to Anfield so so would like to think we could do 2k for this as long as we're not trounced in the first leg. If SR are smart they could get some goodwill back from the fans by laying on some free coaches which would boost numbers significantly Anyone else planning on doing both legs? Absolutely buzzing for this.
They're being given 3,200 apparently so you'd hope we'd get 5,500 offered to us first. Wouldn't happen though.
Think the options would be 1k, 3k or 5k. Hoping we take the middle one. No chance of the last one and we'd never sell that anyway.
If that's an option but it might not be. Tickets will gold dust up there and it's not far away so they may ask us to make a decision and stick. I'd still only go middle though as I can't see us even selling 3k.
Every man and his dog wants a ticket with the saints fans I know. I think a lot could definitely depend on the way the first leg goes.
Agree completely on last point and that's what makes it so difficult for the club to judge. If we lose the first leg by 2/3 goals then for many people the 650 mile round trip will seem less appealing. Would probs see less than a thousand travel then!
If they’re on sale before the first leg then it would force the hand of those 50/50 on making the trip
On sale to STH's from 9:30 today. https://www.southamptonfc.com/matches/2022-23/efl-cup/saints-vs-newcastle-2023-01-24/ticket-info Just seen that STH's get a window for extra tickets too... ffs
Just got mine. I actually purchased them at 9:20 as has a 5 min break. Didn't have an option to electronically deliver, so now at the mercy of the post, though I don't think there are anymore strikes until next month.
Was there a collect option? I had print at home for last two rounds but think I'd prefer actual tickets for this.
No option for print at home - it said online before I bought them that there is a delivery and a print at home and collection option, then when went to purchase only delivery or collection option - collection not viable for me being in Bompey.
There is a collect from St Mary's option, yes. Just bought a ticket for Stamford Bridge in Feb while I was getting the league cup tickets. Amazing what 3 wins on the bounce will make you do
It seems like I am now in the future as managed to purchase 2 Newcastle tickets 10 mins before they went on sale. My 'buying tickets stream' is ahead of all of yours lol.
I've just brought Chelsea tickets too! A nice surprise for Mini Lincolns birthday as he's been a top kid all year, and has far more patience with Saints then me. I'm really looking forward to it.
