Ticket sales above 2000 as of Wednesday apparently according to the website! I assume that means just home tickets.

SO with away tickets I think plus 3000 is certainly on the cards

The figure of above 2000 as of Wednesday includes sales made by Barnsley.

When is the last chance to get tickets? are they from the Sports Hall?

Bloody hell, that is poor. Need pay entry at the turnstiles on the day if we are to get anywhere near 3300, but that brings with it its own problems.

".....I believe if we play like we did at  Coventry we will win" says Barnsley's manager.

If they're two down inside 10 minutes again tomorrow he's being wildly optimistic.

[wellingboroughALTY]

If only 2000 have been sold, we need to have on the day sales of some sort for those who only decide to turn up tomorrow. Under 2500 attendance would be a big disappointment IMO.

Don't know how this would work security wise though

Don't know what else the club could have done to be fair. The game has been all over social media this week and tickets have been on sale since last Friday. The information about the game is out there and not hard to find. No doubt some will kick off about pay on the day but people have had 8 days to buy tickets now.

[Jenga]

I agree Sarf.

The problem maybe is that the people on social media are perhaps posting to those that already go to the games. Will it reach those floating fans.

I dont know as i dont get the papers but was information released in LAST weeks local rag, this weeks would be leaving it late. Have there been adverts up in the town center and on local radio (i dont go to Alty usually and listen to radio 1).

Of course everything needs volunteers, but it also appears that some predictions of 500 barnsley fans is more on the button that Barnsley saying they will bring boat loads.

2000 would be a disappointment, 3000 would be where i was hoping it would be.

Sorry, but to have pay on the day would destroy the whole point of ticketing. Once you decide to ticket the away end you simply have to do the same for the rest of the ground, and to have a cash turnstile on the day would invite troublemakers. People have known about the game for long enough & the info has been available.

there will be atleast 3 grand so many people have friends of friends of friends the word on social media will be well spread

[Ballers]

It is still a relatively new phenomenon for us and I don't know what effect it has.

I'm willing to bet that we wouldn't have got 4,632 v Guiseley without it.

They are on sale at the club office in the CSH until 7pm tonight.

[Paul Cain's Chip Pan]

Barnsley ticket office indicating that they have now sold around 800 tickets in total.

Are they coming in black coaches or on a skateboard.

so less than Grimsby and Tranmere and only marinally better than Chester. I wonder if the Barnsley forum is laughing at my comments now?
