Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: Samdy Gray on Monday, February 23, 2009, 21:19:15 Are we all going to try and get seats together?
Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: pumbaa on Monday, February 23, 2009, 21:23:55 I was actually going to ask if it was specified seating......I'm guessing it is then......
Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: axs on Monday, February 23, 2009, 21:36:44 Are we all going to try and get seats together? Could we do it tomorrow night? Meet at the ticket office then go the merlin. Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: Samdy Gray on Monday, February 23, 2009, 21:39:46 I'm a bit skint until Friday.
Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: Samdy Gray on Friday, February 27, 2009, 10:32:46 So are we going down on Tuesday people?
Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: herthab on Friday, February 27, 2009, 11:16:34 It would make sense to get as many as possible sitting together. At least we could generate some noise.
I'm up for it. Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: reeves4england on Friday, February 27, 2009, 12:07:28 Have people bought tickets yet?
Would be good to get a group together incase they enforce allocated seating Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: Sippo on Friday, February 27, 2009, 12:11:11 Allocated seating for away games really pisses me off...
'excuse me...you're in my seat'............fuck off, there's loads go over there. Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: Samdy Gray on Friday, February 27, 2009, 12:44:02 Have people bought tickets yet?

On call now all weekend Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: Luci on Monday, March 2, 2009, 19:46:13 Oh thats rubbish :(
Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: Samdy Gray on Tuesday, March 3, 2009, 10:08:55 I had an idea to save me having to leave the pub later (:D) I phoned the ticket office and they will allow me to book 8 tickets because we're going in a group.
So those who've shown an interest in going down this evening to collect tickets, I can book them today and pick them up on my way to The Merlin and you can pay me back. They are: Me The wife Herthab Herthab's son R4E axs Luci Luci's other half (is he coming Luci?) If anyone else is buying tickets, I'll let you know our seat numbers and you can get seats around us. That ok with everyone? Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: LucienSanchez on Tuesday, March 3, 2009, 10:14:55 I'll be ordering mine today on the phone, so a rough idea of your are would be cool as my missus is going shopping while i go to the game
Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: Samdy Gray on Tuesday, March 3, 2009, 10:16:29 I'll try and tag on another one if you like?
Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: LucienSanchez on Tuesday, March 3, 2009, 10:18:40 thats okay, having thought about it for a second i think i'm getting one for Randall also.
Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: pumbaa on Tuesday, March 3, 2009, 10:34:37 That would be great Sam. I'll be phoning the ticket office tomorrow morning.

Post by: Samdy Gray on Tuesday, March 3, 2009, 10:54:51 And I haven't got seat numbers yet because they couldn't find 10 together whilst I was on the phone. I'll have them this evening so I'll let people know then.

Post by: Jamiesfuturewife on Tuesday, March 3, 2009, 11:05:19 I'll be ordering mine today on the phone, so a rough idea of your are would be cool as my missus is going shopping while i go to the game OOOH she will love the shopping - tell her the Zara in Leeds is SO nice Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: LucienSanchez on Tuesday, March 3, 2009, 11:09:16 I'd rather hope she'd be shopping for gifts for me, seeing as it's my birthday!

Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: Samdy Gray on Tuesday, March 3, 2009, 11:48:54 Luci's just informed me she's already bought her and Joe's tickets, so I have two going if you and Randall want them, Alex?
Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: Luci on Tuesday, March 3, 2009, 11:58:32 Sorry dude, had to get them early due to financing - however if anyone doesn't want to sit with you rabble then Ill swap and come sit near you.
I had to transfer some money between accounts so had to sort outgoings in advance otherwise I would have got them same time as you lot :( Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: LucienSanchez on Tuesday, March 3, 2009, 12:08:10 Oh go on then! Cheers!
Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: jayohaitchenn on Tuesday, March 3, 2009, 14:55:50 Is there one for me? If not, what numbers are the tickets? I'll be getting mine tonight.
Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: Samdy Gray on Tuesday, March 3, 2009, 15:03:33 Sorry mate, all accounted for as long as axs and R4E haven't gone and already bought theirs as well. I don't know the seat numbers yet, I will do by about 5.15. Are you coming to The Merlin before you get your ticket?
Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: jayohaitchenn on Tuesday, March 3, 2009, 15:16:54 Yes I suppose so. Also got a spare season ticket in the town end for tonight if anyone wants it?
Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: Samdy Gray on Tuesday, March 3, 2009, 15:25:09 I'll be picking up the tickets en-route to The Merlin so I'll know the seat numbers then.
And Sonic was looking for a ticket. Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: LucienSanchez on Tuesday, March 3, 2009, 15:27:44 Shall i come to the Merlin then, or just pay you at the CG?
Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: Simon Pieman on Tuesday, March 3, 2009, 15:27:55 Chubbs will no doubt want a ticket if he's not at work. He's always asking around.
Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: Samdy Gray on Tuesday, March 3, 2009, 15:38:33 Shall i come to the Merlin then, or just pay you at the CG? Merlin will probably be easiest. Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: Luci on Tuesday, March 3, 2009, 16:35:10 Sorry mate, all accounted for as long as axs and R4E haven't gone and already bought theirs as well. I don't know the seat numbers yet, I will do by about 5.15. Are you coming to The Merlin before you get your ticket? Oi - you didn't give me time to reply to your message! >:( Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: Samdy Gray on Tuesday, March 3, 2009, 16:41:21 I gave you a full hour and a half.
I wasn't having a dig in my post above anyway. It's my fault for not waiting for you to reply first before I went and bought them. Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: jayohaitchenn on Tuesday, March 3, 2009, 18:33:01 Well i'll be in the Merlin at some point. The first to come up to me with a pint gets the ticket for today.

Post by: reeves4england on Tuesday, March 3, 2009, 21:06:53 Sorry mate, all accounted for as long as axs and R4E haven't gone and already bought theirs as well.

Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: Luci on Wednesday, March 11, 2009, 14:16:46 Any suggestions for pre match pubbage? The one last time was horrid not to mention the gang of 15 year old pikeys pelting the window with beer cans.
Unless drinkage in hotel bar pre match is still an option? Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: axs on Wednesday, March 11, 2009, 18:35:24 I vote take over the hotel bar, there's enough of us and they had a skysports screen.
Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: Simon Pieman on Wednesday, March 11, 2009, 19:00:41 That pub was bloody cheap.
Those pikeys made me wait ages for my pint though :( Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: Fred Elliot on Thursday, March 12, 2009, 12:05:11 I was scared
:D Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: reeves4england on Thursday, March 12, 2009, 17:47:13 So what's it going to be?
I still need to get my ticket off Sam (and pay him for it!) Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: Samdy Gray on Thursday, March 12, 2009, 18:59:52 I think we're planning on taking over the hotel bar and then just get taxis to the ground.
Are you driving Alex? If so, you can park at the hotel for £1 an hour. Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: STFC_Gazza on Thursday, March 12, 2009, 19:21:09 Those kids loved Bennett!
Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds.

Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: Luci on Thursday, March 12, 2009, 22:18:42 Oh and for those who want to join its Bewleys Hotel in Leeds and short taxi ride from the ground...
Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: STFC_Gazza on Thursday, March 12, 2009, 22:23:16 Have a good time up there folks! Please bring back 3 points with you :D

Fred or the pikeys? Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: Miss Angry on Thursday, March 12, 2009, 22:58:31 right... i know this is a bit late and cheeky BUT can anyone offer me a spare bed in thier room if i throw you a bit of cash...? Im still not sure if im going yet or not. I have a lift on saturday morning and know if i go to the game i will wanna stay... I also have been offered a lift on Sunday home but couldnt afford to get a room by myself....
Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: Samdy Gray on Thursday, March 12, 2009, 23:10:20 I'm sure herthab will offer you a bed ;)
Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: Samdy Gray on Friday, March 13, 2009, 00:00:21 Only sold 687 tickets. That's a bit disappointing.
Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: jayohaitchenn on Friday, March 13, 2009, 00:02:48 That's shite.
Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: Nemo on Friday, March 13, 2009, 00:05:29 Really? Even i'm going to this and I'm a lazy tosser.

Hehe Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: Bob's Orange on Friday, March 13, 2009, 09:27:20 Only sold 687 tickets. That's a bit disappointing. Would have thought there would have been at least 1,000 there. The Carling Cup match at Elland Road is (I don't make too many granted) my favourite away trip experience, the feeling when Parkin made it 2-0 was unbelievable. Title: Re: For Those Spending The Weekend At Leeds. Post by: herthab on Friday, March 13, 2009, 09:56:26 Dan demoted to the corridoor then? Hehe Dan who? I have no son.
