    Ps. I meant Saturdays Game (why can't we edit thread titles)

    Just received an email from the club stating the following:

    "Tickets remain on sale for Saturday's Emirates FA Cup fixture with Notts County and if you want to attend, it's an all ticket affair, meaning you can't use your season ticket to gain entry! "

    Now is that just a badly worded email that is trying to point out only that you can't get in without paying because your ST card doesn't cover it.

    Or does it really mean that it is all ticket, as the email says, which to most people means that you can only get tickets in advance of the day. Surely not, for heaven's sake?

    Tickets are available on the day. It says so on the eticketibg site. £2 increase on the day

    You can . Above your first post there’s a pull down option called ‘Thread Tools’ - In there you have ‘Edit Title’

    I read the same email this morning and puzzled over it. Then saw on BFC site you can pay on the day for £6 or £12 instead of £5 or £10 advance.
    Anyroadon, I did mine online for five quid, print at home.
    So to answer your question, it's a poor choice of words on the email. No, it's not all ticket !

    There doesn't seem to be the add to season ticket option as we've had in the past.

    Probably why it was a free for all without season pass holders being given a day or two to guarantee their usual seat.

    I've got my usual seat, but bought mine in person at the club shop.
