question from a lancastrian bantam

[marti]

hi guys

the tickets for the bradford end on new years day only went on general sale on boxing day and when i rang up to order one they said they couldnt send me one in the post cos it wouldnt get here in time for the game-is there any way i can get a accy ticket and theyll let me in the bradford end.

im not trying to cause trouble-im just a bloke who wants to watch a football match and cant get hold of a ticket in time to watch it from the correct part of the ground...your thoughts please...

[K.S.H]

Can you not collect one from the club?

[harwood red]

I haven't heard the accy end being ticket only but rather pay on the gate. I think the Bradford game is ticket only for away fans is so they have an idea of numbers that are coming and more than likely a request by the police also!

Do you not live in Bradford? Can you not go on your own forum and see if there is a fan going prepared to buy a ticket for you and meet you in accy??

[marti]

live in lancaster and have tried our own forum but it appears to have fallen upon deaf ears-theyve been as helpfull as a stick...a very unhelpfull one at that...

They are friendly enough in the home end as long as you behave

[harwood red]

yeah but can you imagine standing in the opposing sides end knowing you can't make any comment about your team, wouldn't be much fun would it!!!???

Me and junior dingle had to do it at Leciester a couple of seasons ago. We fastened our coats to cover our shirts, won 1-0 and madam was so pleased she took her coat off at the final whistle whilst filing out of the ground with all the Leicester fans

well I admire you for doing it but no it would be an impossibility for me to do it

Try ringing stanley Mon am to explain the problem and see if they can help, maybe if they find out Bradford have not sold out they may be prepared to sell you a ticket before the match tues!!

Can't think why

Your'e right it's not as much fun as being in your own end.

Way back in '76 on my big OE, I took this bloke along to a Chelsea game vs Portsmouth. He wasn't a footy fan but was from Portsmouth.Well I soon descovered my error. We were in the 'Shed' (I always stood there) and the friggan drongo yells out "C'mon POMPEY". As quick as a flash I put distance between us. All I could see were all these faces peering down at him. Thank god nothing happened.The lights came on at halftime and who's standing just a couple of paces away from him??? -only his brother whom he hasn't seen for 11 years!!.He was a footy supporter and had entered the wrong end.They chatted for about 1 minute and that was that.Clearly a close family. The game was dull but I'll never ever forget it.

[marti]

thanks guys-hope its a great game!!

[shillelagh]
