Blackpool H

by Vision » 15 Mar 2024 00:34

Just wanted to ask if tickets for the final game have gone on sale yet ?

Only Hospitality is available but wondered if that’s because they’re sold out (which would be a surprise but not impossible I guess) or if they aren’t on sale yet.

Not on sale yet. Home tickets usually go on sale around four or five weeks prior to the game - so I'd expect them to go on sale next week.

Tickets are now available on the website.

Last game of the season usually gets moved to an early kick off? 12:30?

Really like a half 5 kick off. Go out for a nice lunch, have a few drinks then go to the game. You can really make a day of it.

Reading's Sky Bet League One fixture with Blackpool on Saturday 27th April will now kick off at 12:30pm instead of the previously advertised 3pm.

The showdown with the Tangerines at the Select Car Leasing Stadium has been moved alongside all 11 other league fixtures on the day.

Well that’s my safety net timing for flying in gone.

Might be turning up to the ground with a suitcase ;-)

I'm flying in from Calgary, Canada and land at 11.30am in Heathrow so I'm now buggered!!!! Luckily its a 10 day vacation so not a huge loss but totally gutted!! Only been back 4 times in 16yrs hopefully the club gets new owners and isn't our last ever game!!

Based on my current estimates, we've sold around 11,400 for this. Based on typical trends we're on track for a home turnout of 17,200.

With Blackpool increasingly looking like they'll be in the play-off picture come the final day, they may bring more than they otherwise would. Perhaps over 18,000 total is possible.

Club 1871 now completely sold out and up to around 11,650 sold (home fans).

Seems very likely.

We're heading in the direction of 18k+ home fans, plus Blackpool sold their initial 797 allocation by Sunday. They'll end up bring around 1,500 minimum as they've still got something to play for.

In terms of home tickets, I have us having sold 13,247 (excluding hospitality and disabled); that would already be the seventh highest crowd this season (in terms of home fans). I estimate our ticket sales usually jump about 40% between the start of Monday and a Saturday match* - that sort of rise would put us at 18,500 home tickets sold.

The current situation is: Club 1871 has sold out; the East Stand blocks between Y21 and Y25 (inclusive) are all 85%+ sold; the Lower West blocks between G5 and G8 (inclusive) are all 95%+ sold; the Upper West blocks between GU4 and GU8 are all 90%+ sold; most of the hospitality places have sold out (the area surrounding the director's box).

*That increase will partially be down to hospitality and disabled seats being included in the final total.
