Seat Counters 25/26

[James2401125]

Why have they put Everton away on sale 10am same time as Southampton extra.
Should of moved everton to 9am or 11am

I've asked quite a few blues who went to the Caraboa final and hardly any of them are bothering with the semi. Most of them are absolutely convinced we're goimg to make the final, must be collective amnesia eg Wigan, Palace, rags etc. Could be a real struggle this one. Once the criteria is set I assume the club have to stick to it, but it may need '3 additional (4 Total)' to shift these. Could be a great chance for family groups to have a day out ?. I thought the same re the boycotted community shield but it sold. My guess is around 30K.

Southampton are on a 17 game unbeaten run. Am definitely not convinced of reaching the final.
Buzzing i got our 3 tickets in block 116 earlier.
When were Eastside it's best to avoid the sun in your eyes. CTID

So a day 1 seat count analysis from back in the studio: the day started on a wave of optimism with sales predictions ranging from 25 to 35k based on recent results. Worrying news from the supporters clubs coupled with a low queue for the first sales window triggered a growing wave of pessimism with some experienced counters immediately revising their predictions. The negativity was offset by the great elephant in the room: the sale of extra tickets on day two. How many have held back from buying? Will we see a surge of buyers tomorrow morning? The first massive sign, like the exit poll at a general election, will by the queue at 10am. If this is in the 25k+ range then that will signify a late sales surge. If it’s much lower than that then we are in for a disappointing day where the “open sale now!” calls get louder by mid afternoon.

Tune in tomorrow. It’s all still to play for here.

Will Jessica and Chester confront Mary about Burts behaviour? Does Chuck really fancy Benson? Will the Tates send Dutch back to the penitentiary?

For the answers to these questions, and many more...tune in next time for another thrilling episode of The Seat Counters.

that was worth the license fee alone, fantastic breakdown of todays events at ticket HQ. Personally the criteria has upskittled me, so much to take in in one day, not many users on here showing their cards as to whether they have purchased, going to purchase, going to purchase extra or werenever bothering. Today is going to be some day

Leeds and Southampton are charging a booking fee on top of the ticket price for Wembley.

Robbing fuckers but, I suppose maybe they've not got a regular system to shift so many tickets like we have.

Fantastic work, confusion will be the order of the day when Everton go on sale at 10

After last nights results, given they play Ipswich on the Tuesday after the SF, I very much doubt it’ll be anything like their strongest team at Wembley…

 

[glenowen]

i agree, i bet we sell another 3/4000 tomorrow tops, also there is a pattern emerging with the sales, the 30/45 go ok, the 70 quid tickets up top are a slow burner, they should open up the whole allocation and let people get at all the cheaper tickets

Absolutely agree about opening up all blocks. Why do they "grey out" loads of blocks, preventing fans from buying seats anywhere they like? I bought seats yesterday in a different area, when I wanted them in the same block as we sat in for the League Cup Final - which was one of the greyed out blocks. What's the logic behind this?

Train ticket prices getting back from London to Leeds after their game are astronomical too.

Championship players are used to playing twice a season. If they do anything but pick their best team, Saints’ manager needs to give his head a wobble

You'd do well to get the same block as you sat in for the League Cup Final as were in the opposite end of Wembley for this one :)

I still stand by my 25k prediction, in my opinion there are plenty swerving this one (there are plenty still going aswell) in order to go to the final instead, im not counting any chickens yet though we all know there is still a propensity for the old school 'typical City' to pop its head up every now and then.

As an aside supporters clubs could purchase from 10am yesterday not 4pm but they had to go in and choose their own seats

Seriously?

 

[flapjack]

early morning count: 10217 left.....so over a thousand gone over night, so they are ticking away, impossible to call this one

*edited as block 519 is now on sale*

How much are they getting paid for playing twice a season? Sounds like a decent job if you can get it!

If I wasn’t past it, I’d fancy. A bit of that myself.

Kalvin Phillips can beat that. £8m a year for not playing at all!

 

[Lee the Blue]

The mathematic ability of these seat counters is amazing. They could be working for NASA planning the next moon trip they are that clever!!

Its not their first rodeo. They are experts in the field, tried and tested over course and distance.

As Southampton are doing exactly the same, I assume they are under instructions from Wembley.
