    ......... cos that means the first 4,000+ through the box office will get ALL the home tickets and 2,000 season ticket holders will get shafted again ............. got to restrict it to one per season ticket holder or 2 at the most.

    Mr Rowing, get your calculator out before you make any decisions on this game

    They couldn't do that

    With the season ticket you are guaranteed the opportunity to have your seat, so at most it will be 2 per ST holder.

    They need to chill out

    And as has been said, realise that we don't need to sell the tickets in one day.</p>

    One per St holder, then categorise by posession of tickets to either the Southend game or certain home league games. Perhaps give a voucher to pay on the gate at the QPR game ? Owt to avoid a scramble.</p>

    How many season ticket holders want to get more than 1 ticket? All I'm bothered about is getting my seat, the same one I have every single week.

    Make it one per season ticket holder (telephone sales welcome aswell), and then filter it down by Number of homes games attended.

    They should also put a limit on how many ST vouchers can be handed in at one transaction.

    Give the guys who have jobs who can't queue up a 5am a chance to buy theirs.

    that was irony wasn't it?

    Errr, they did that for the Colchester game, and we got screwed. I don't think they'd get believed this time.

    Should be no queues or panic mate ....................

    ........... if they give a few days to claim your own seat, think it will be 2 per S/T holder, that clears out 12,000+ straightaway

    One more untruth to go.

    just like all the furore over the Liverpool tickets

    you assume that the 4,000 ST holders wouldn't actually be buying tickets for other ST holders.

    Still be panic with people wanting to sit their extra person with themselves so slow down the process.

    I think

    Don Rowing said at the Trust Meeting that in the eventuality of a home tie in the next round it would be 2 per season ticket holder which I think is fair enough.

    The question is do they give the whole of the North Stand to Chelsea or segregate it? (Thus losing revenue?)

    RE: I think

    If you can pick your seat with spare ticket everyone will go on the first day of sale and the choosing of non ST seats will slow down the process leaving lengthy queues. ONE TICKET PER ST.

    RE: I think

    Aye Rowing has the right way of thinking there. Segregation would be pointless in the North Stand. If we can't stick Chelski on the side, it would be a shame, as there will be empty seats in the away end.
