    Hi there

    I am a football fan from Germany, I'll be in the Sheffield area on next weekend and on that occasion was hoping to be able to visit some grounds...

    the Barnsley-Leeds game would have fit perfectly into my schedule, only problem being the ticket sale restrictions imposed by the club.

    I still wanted to ask though how in your opinion this will work out in practice (or has worked out in the past) - because I can't really imagine that they won't sell me a ticket if I present myself at box office on match day, as it's pretty obvious that I'm not a Leeds supporter......?!

    or will the tickets be sold out before next saturday anyway?

    thanks in advance for all kind of advice, much appreciated!!

    best regards from Germany!

    Good morning - email boxoffice@barnsleyfc.co.uk directly and they may be able to help you out - I imagine you'd have to register for a ticket but not sure. Hopefully they'll show some common sense and sort you out.

    Good luck !

    I think the game will be all ticket so you will have to get your ticket sorted prior to Saturday.

    I'd agree with this. Hopefully the club can help you out. It would be possible for a season ticket holder to get you a ticket if you can arrange to transfer funds to them. I appreciate there is a risk involved when you're talking about strangers on the internet.

    Wie Conan Troutman schon vorgeschlagen hat, vielleicht kann ich Ihnen helfen? Ich hab eine Saisonkarte und ich wäre bereit, ein Ticket für Sie zu kaufen. Natürlich nur dann, wenn Barnsley FC damit einverstanden ist. Bitte melden Sie sich per PN. Viel Glück, You Reds!

    I’m sure the club will be able to accommodate you. It won’t be close to a sell out - in the home areas at least.

    Leeds will sell out I reckon.

    thank you all for your replies!

    as to writing to the club: I already had done this prior to writing here but they answered the expected: "strict policy guidlines" etc, ticket offices would be open on 25th but with the same restrictions... I just wonder how they want to control that? do they know all their previous fans/"customers" by name?

    anyway, I might try to just show up and ask somebody

    You can't pay on day, tickets have to be pre purchased by Friday

    You can pay by debit/credit card on phone or by internet but you can collect ticket before game, that's what I do anyway.

    It's on TV so if ya can't get in watch it in pubs in Barnsley

    Someone may be willing to get you a ticket if you send them the money first. I would but I've already helped someone out.

    The only way you might get one on the day is if someone is selling one outside the ground (I've seen this a couple of times) but with it being Leeds it's probably unlikely.

    Ich habe eine Bank-Verbindung in Norderstedt, bei Hamburg, also eine Überweisung wäre einfacher für Sie. Nicht günstig aber, wäre ungefähr €40!!!! Bin gerne bereit, Ihnen zu helfen.

    Think he's telling him to get in early, buy a pint & pie before the start cos they have sold out before half time

    Nope, I told him to steer clear of Conan and Redstar if he does manage to get a ticket. I'll try to sort him out!

    You should feel honoured you got a reply from the club, most people don’t!

    Who do you support in Germany?

    My local-ish Bundesliga team then.

    Gute Idee Stahlrost und sehr gut von dir zu ehrenamtlich. Für die Zwecke dieses Threads verweise ich auf Conan Trautmann. Dies wird von Google Translate kopiert, also bitte tadeln Sie mich nicht, wenn es grammatikalisch nicht korrekt ist. Vielen Dank.
