Brentford away tickets on sale

[bainy]

Approx 60 percent of the tickets will be sold through the points system and the club expects it to sell out at 22000 points
60 % of 1750 tickets is roughly 1000 tickets to go onsale to point holders
Good luck

I dont believe that 60 percent go to point holders.
There were less that 500 available on line at 0900 this morning. There's now around 350 as of 15 minutes into the second window. When it sells out online, thats the same for the phone line - the phone line and online must therefore be dipping into the same pot.
Sorry, but i do not believe that city give 60% to point holders. I know that's city's standard message, so no offence to you chappie.
Ive been monitoring sales last few away games and on no occasion have more tickets been added as sales have nearly sold out.

Can we get an update on tickets available?

Cheers

355 left as of 1215, second window

Less than 500 out of an allocation of 1725 represents less than 30% of the total allocation. In percentage terms, that's an even bigger piss take than what went on sale to points holders for the derby ffs!

City state that they often hold tiks back as part of agreement with the home club. Therefore the online availability is misleading. For the last 3 games this has not been the case. No further tickets have been added. They also state that the true figure for each window is not seen by those online as supporters have tiks in their basket. You cannot have a ticket in your basket on the first window as it strictly opens at 0900. You can fairly accurately see the number sold each window. The number of tiks dropping each window is in keeping with the derby and other games. Something doesnt stack up and i cannot see anywhere that city are making 60% available. Im happy to be proved wrong!!

Presumably we're still giving the under 25s a chunk of tickets too (which I'm broadly supportive of). Is it a set number or a % of the allocation?

We are because my mate's 19yo son was lucky enough to bag a derby ticket via that route. I could be mistaken but I think it's only 5% of the overall allocation though which would account for less than 90 tickets for Brentford

Under 25s and child pull through all come out of those available visible online. They are not top sliced like the requests from club employees, hospitality sections, former employees and supporters clubs.

They used to stipulate how many it was (5%) but now it doesn't say specifically how much goes to 18-25. Going off the old 5% I make it 86 tickets for Brentford away. Allocation went by 9:01 this morning

Was just trying to think of reasons why it would be so low. Quite a poor do for less than 30% of available tickets to be distributed correctly. 60% is barely acceptable - this is a slap in the face.

I think I might still get one but mates not far behind me have got no chance.
