Title: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Matchworn Shirts on Sunday, August 7, 2011, 08:45:02 I am coming over from Hamburg for this, tried to get through to the ticket office on Fri&Sat to buy some tickets - but couldn't get through. Now bloody spold out
So if anybody has two adult tickets spare, PM me. I'd pay above the face value (not stupid price though) Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: wiggy on Sunday, August 7, 2011, 08:53:59 It might be worth contacting the club and see if they can do anything for you. Haven't they been making noises about the equitable redistribution of players complimentary tickets?
Is there even such a thing as players complimentary tickets? I am sure Jeremy Wray alluded to this in one of his recent interviews. Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Nomoreheroes on Sunday, August 7, 2011, 11:42:27 Can you not pay on the day? Is it just all ticket for away fans?
Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Arriba on Sunday, August 7, 2011, 11:54:42 just go in the home end.

Haven't they been making noises about the equitable redistribution of players complimentary tickets? Yep they do exist. We got some at Plymouth in the cup game last year. The players coach driver just came up and gave them to us which was nice.Is there even such a thing as players complimentary tickets? I am sure Jeremy Wray alluded to this in one of his recent interviews. Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Spencer_White on Sunday, August 7, 2011, 12:50:43 Bit different for Cheltenham as this is a genuine all ticket game for our fans, every time.
Hopefully we will get some more relaxed Policing up there this year. We showed a lot of restraint a few years ago in that pub near the ground when they had a big youth mob come in (no Im not taking the piss, there were about 40 of them).

We showed a lot of restraint a few years ago in that pub near the ground when they had a big youth mob come in (no Im not taking the piss, there were about 40 of them). Cat and Fiddle? Taxis refused to pick us up from there after the game Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Spencer_White on Sunday, August 7, 2011, 13:20:17 Yeah. How come the Taxi's wouldnt pick you up? Been told not to by the Police?
Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: ghanimah on Sunday, August 7, 2011, 14:11:19 Yeah. How come the Taxi's wouldnt pick you up? Been told not to by the Police? Not sure. The taxi firms we rung claimed it was company policy not to pick up from that pub. Although it wasn't the most salubrious place in the world it didn't look that bad. It appears via Google street view that the pub is now closed and boarded up. Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Langers on Sunday, August 7, 2011, 14:11:49 Looks like we are going in the home end, plenty of decent seats still avaliable, not quite the same but at least i'll be there!
Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: ChalkyWhiteIsGod on Sunday, August 7, 2011, 15:04:01 I thought there were still about 100 tickets available was the last word?
Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Whits on Sunday, August 7, 2011, 16:35:44 I thought there were still about 100 tickets available was the last word? when was last word?Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Batch on Sunday, August 7, 2011, 16:49:01 when was last word? just before they sold the last 100Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: bobby on Sunday, August 7, 2011, 17:03:14 Does anybody know what our allocation is for this.... have we got the stand along the side as well because everybody i know is in the stand behind the goal so is there the possibility of more tickets for that bit of the stand along the side?
Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Spencer_White on Sunday, August 7, 2011, 17:06:55 Does anybody know what our allocation is for this.... have we got the stand along the side as well because everybody i know is in the stand behind the goal so is there the possibility of more tickets for that bit of the stand along the side? It was 1400, and they gave us the whole lot up front, behind the goal, and on the side. Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Matchworn Shirts on Sunday, August 7, 2011, 17:07:39 Pretty sure we have the first three blocks of the stand on the side as well as behind the goal (as we usually do)
Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: bobby on Sunday, August 7, 2011, 17:09:31 Must be alot of segregation as on the cheltenham site it says away allocation is just under 1800.
Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: The Frog on Sunday, August 7, 2011, 17:10:06 So have we sold our allocation out already?
Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Spencer_White on Sunday, August 7, 2011, 17:13:08 Someone ring up monday morning and find out?
Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Gnasher on Sunday, August 7, 2011, 19:44:49 Pretty sure we have the first three blocks of the stand on the side as well as behind the goal (as we usually do) We do. There will be plenty of room in the Cheltnum end, if you want to take the risk. I can't see us getting any more tickets unless they're willing to move season ticket holders in the In2Print Stand. Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Langers on Monday, August 8, 2011, 06:51:01 Someone ring up monday morning and find out? I'm ringing up this morning, what time does the box office open? Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Bennett on Monday, August 8, 2011, 07:36:31 6 minutes ago!!!
Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Whits on Monday, August 8, 2011, 07:43:44 300-400 left - just got 2 myself
Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Spud on Monday, August 8, 2011, 08:16:31 Just got 3. Nice start to the week!
Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Langers on Monday, August 8, 2011, 08:36:32 Just got 4. Less than 200 left.
Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Langers on Monday, August 8, 2011, 08:51:42 I hope Matchworn shirts has seen that there are still some avaliable, I reckon he will be quite pissed off if he misses out.
Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Coca Fola on Monday, August 8, 2011, 08:54:09 So it will be the usual 1800 allocation then?
Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Matchworn Shirts on Monday, August 8, 2011, 08:58:13 Whats the best number to ring? The 0871 goes to answerphone & my old man left a message , cannot get through. FFS
Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Muffin Man on Monday, August 8, 2011, 08:58:19 Horrible non league standard ground.
Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Rustle on Monday, August 8, 2011, 10:48:15 Just been down the CG and there are still tickets available down the side.
Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: reeves4england on Monday, August 8, 2011, 11:05:00 Whats the best number to ring? The 0871 goes to answerphone & my old man left a message , cannot get through. FFS Last time I left a message nobody got back to me. Better to keep trying if you can.Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: König on Monday, August 8, 2011, 11:25:28 tempted to go to this now, although i'm short on money and would be going on my todd hmm :hmmm:
Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: slinky on Monday, August 8, 2011, 16:19:18 I've just been down to the ticket office and got mine. There's still a few left.
Does anyone know what pub the away fans usually go to? Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Ctfc Robin on Monday, August 8, 2011, 20:35:48 Horrible non league standard ground. :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick: :clap: if you think our ground is a standard non league ground you will get a shock when you go to accrington d&r crawley Wimbledon barnet Bristol rovers Macclesfield Torquay Hereford Aldershot. You might find Whaddon road is one of the better grounds in the league with probably the best playing surface in the division apart from last season we have won the best pitch award two years running. Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Benzel on Monday, August 8, 2011, 20:36:51 Good pitch? That'll suit us then.
Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Spencer_White on Monday, August 8, 2011, 20:40:22 Accrington's pitch looked like a cabbage patch alotment when we went there 4 years ago.

Wimbledon aside, we've been at all of those grounds in the past 5 years. How fucking depressing does that sound Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Ctfc Robin on Monday, August 8, 2011, 20:48:32 Good pitch? That'll suit us then. It suited us last season up until Xmas. With Gloucester using Whaddon for two season the pitch become worn and are home form suffered. Hope daryl duffy is fit saturday we dominated the game at gillingham but couldn't score.Accrington pitch is stil the same how the fook does the football league let them get away with that. ;DTitle: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: chalkies_shorts on Monday, August 8, 2011, 20:55:37 ctfc robin - on a slightly different tack how easy will it be to get tickets on the day in the home ends. I won't know until Friday night if i can go and we'll have sold out well before then. I enjoy my trips to 'Nam result excepted.
Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Ctfc Robin on Monday, August 8, 2011, 21:02:12 ctfc robin - on a slightly different tack how easy will it be to get tickets on the day in the home ends. I won't know until Friday night if i can go and we'll have sold out well before then. I enjoy my trips to 'Nam result excepted. You could go on line book tickets that way and pick up from ticket office on the day. Your best bet is seating because if you score that's a big if :wink: it's just full of the golden oldies in there.try and avoid the terracing parts of the ground it's a bit like your home end behind the goal.but there will be tickets on turnstiles on the day(don't know about seating parts though).Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Batch on Monday, August 8, 2011, 21:18:40 I really really really try to think of Cheltenham as a local derby and disklike them accordingly, but I can't. Its merely slightly irritating that they seem to beat us more than we do them.
So on that note, welcome Ctfc Robin. Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Notts red on Monday, August 8, 2011, 21:34:32 Thought the Cheltenham pitch was right up there amongst the best the last time we were in div 2. It was one of the 1 st games of the season but still credit to them. Think we were 1-0 up until there lad hit a long range rocket to finish 1-1. Can't remember his name but think he moved on to Colchester . Looking forward to going sat and if the pitch is still as good we should have no excuses and should make the most of playing on the better pitches we have to visit this season.
Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Benzel on Monday, August 8, 2011, 21:38:17 Ashley Vincent wasn't it? Screamer.
Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Notts red on Monday, August 8, 2011, 21:40:31 Yeah thats the man, he turned a great day into a good day.
Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: chalkies_shorts on Monday, August 8, 2011, 21:53:18 You could go on line book tickets that way and pick up from ticket office on the day.

[/quote I'm quite happy to stand as I have fuck all expectation of us scoring, drawing or winning. Regardless of how good / bad we are or how well / bad we play my expectation os a good day out and defeat. Even the 1-1 draw we got there we absolutely slaughtered you. the other two times we were just shite. I can't dislike you guys. You're our nearest rivals but I actually have a grudging respect for CTFC. Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Christy on Monday, August 8, 2011, 21:58:18 I've stood on the side bit of terracing before. Plenty of other Swindon in there, and no hassle at all. I'm pretty sure it's pay on the day as well.
Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Jimmy Glass is an Alien on Tuesday, August 9, 2011, 07:49:48 30 Cheltenham tickets left as per my HP.
Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Dozno9 on Tuesday, August 9, 2011, 08:25:32 Just phoned up, all sold out with the exception of 'family' tickets; attending with juniors or oap's.
Guess it'll be the wireless for me. Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: slinky on Tuesday, August 9, 2011, 09:22:35 Looking forward to this. If we have now sold our full allocation and based on their last seasons average attendance of 3000 it should be quite an atmosphere and lots of noise coming from the away fans.
Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Paolo69 on Tuesday, August 9, 2011, 09:23:57 Just phoned up, all sold out with the exception of 'family' tickets; attending with juniors or oap's. Guess it'll be the wireless for me. Just buy a kids ticket too then. It'll probably still be cheaper than our match tickets.

Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Spencer_White on Tuesday, August 9, 2011, 18:56:00 If the rioting isnt brought under control tonight then every game in the country will be in doubt for saturday. If this escalates any more they will want every available officer on the streets of the big cities, and smaller forces like Glos and Wilts will be expected to send maximum resources.
Fingers crossed the country finally gets on top of the scum tonight. Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Batch on Tuesday, August 9, 2011, 19:00:17 Indeed Spenser, sport would be under threat due to resourcing. Can games legally be marshalled without a Police presence.
The looting by Cheltenham natives will be limited to mixed olives (Waitrose finest) and Perrier. Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Summerof69 on Tuesday, August 9, 2011, 19:50:38 Indeed Spenser, sport would be under threat due to resourcing. Can games legally be marshalled without a Police presence. Yes, I remember Swindon holding games with just stewards, but for local derby's..forget it. Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Batch on Tuesday, August 9, 2011, 20:03:27 but for local derby's..forget it. Cheltenham maybe local, but this ain't no local derby. Has there ever been trouble between us? Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: slinky on Tuesday, August 9, 2011, 22:16:49 By all accounts it has been quieter tonight. Trouble in Manchester and Birmingham but London much less. Hopefully the test match will start tomorrow and all of this nonsense will be over to allow a full schedule of games on Saturday up and down the country.
Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: cheltred69 on Tuesday, August 9, 2011, 23:19:55 Cheltenham maybe local, but this ain't no local derby. Has there ever been trouble between us? I'm certainly not aware of any - there's typically not much trouble at many Cheltenham games. I do believe though that they share our dislike for Oxford :clap: Title: Re: Cheltenham tickets Post by: Batch on Wednesday, August 10, 2011, 06:44:24 I do believe though that they share our dislike for Oxford :clap: My enemy's enemy....

The term 'sold out' does tend to suggest in itselt that we have sold precisely the number of tickets that were available for sale. The silly cunt.
