Bodo Away

I'm not looking for a row, but I would respectfully suggest that until the club becomes more transparent and publishes the exact number of supporters in each points category, then we have no idea whether 70-80 "big hitters" buying a ticket for Bodo, dispels any perpetuated myth, or on the contrary just proves that some of them took one look at CL draw last September and opted for a January trip to Norway over yet another trip to Madrid etc.

Otherwise the highest 3,000 would have been in the Bernabeu last fortnight and the tickets would have sold out at around 26,000 points

Meanwhile I've travelled to all the European games this season and am stupid enough to be currently considering paying £500 for a Bodo ticket from a dodgy internet ticket agency
I’ll be in Bodo with the only way of getting a ticket being luck or charity.

I have the means to get a £500 quid ticket, but unfortunately I can’t get my head around that much. The most I’ve ever paid was for the Porto CL final (250 Euro).

no chance would I pay £500 for a ticket
 
I class the bit hitters as the supporters over the 31000 loyalty points mark and these are the people who go to virtually every match.
Also by the sales criteria for Bodo and the amount sold in each window up to now ,you can see how many supporters approx are in each bracket.
33500 plus including superbia,approx 55 supporters purchased tickets
33000 plus ,approx 40 supporters purchased tickets
32000 plus, approx 40 tickets sold
31500 plus,approx 13 tickets sold.
At 11am 72 tickets remain.
Be interesting to see if this drops below the 30,500 criteria mark. If it does, it might go down a bit further if, as you've stated, the real die hard fans who do pretty much every away game have all snapped up tickets already

Good chance it will go too 30000
Sold 19 in this window at present and I would assume anyone who could purchase a ticket at 1pm would be on the ball.
Presently 53 left
 
So I've bought a ticket, and then I filled out the form to tell city my Hotel and Flight plans.

When I filled out the form and pressed submit, it just went to a screen that said "Thank you". I haven't received any kind of email or confirmation to say that I've filled the form out. Has anyone received anything?

It’s very vague but I’d guess that the ‘Thank you’ screen is your confirmation for now. If you’d made any errors, it would presumably have said something to that effect.
And I’d imagine that the forms will now have to be looked at individually so even with just a few hundred that may take a while, especially at this time of year.
 
Definitely going to a new criteria
At the 30500 window, 4pm they have sold 8 tickets.
There are 46 tickets left ,going of sales, it may get down to 28500 points.
Just checked again now 50 tickets available 1612pm

I just got one at 16.00. It is strange that so few are going as the criteria drops. I had always thought of it as a pyramid getting wider the further it dropped, but possibly the very top bands are wider than the ones just below. Either way I’m relieved.

This is why I was surprised so many went in the first window as I expected it to more and more in each window.

A nervous next 24 hours for me on 29,730.

The top bands will probably be people that pretty much go to every game. Slightly lower down may well be people who are more selective - some of them won't go to certain 'less convenient' games these days for all sorts of reasons but have their places in the hierarchy protected now that points aren't awarded for away tickets.
 
A lot probably thought they’d no hope and didn’t book and with having to show proof of travel and the expense have probably just decided it’s not worth the hassle
 
Can’t imagine many people would say it was the worst but burton away in the cup was absolutely freezing
Absolutely perishing that night, and we parked a long walk from the ground.
A shout for Stoke away FA Cup about 50 years ago. The wind had blown the roof off the stand to our left a week or so earlier so there was no protection in the open end as even more bitterly cold wind blew across from the east.
