    I'll go for 8am in the morning. I'm not sure if it automatically happens when a block is a certain % full. If it relies on someone clicking a mouse, the call centre staff knocked off at 8pm.

    Yet Oxford have released 60% of the upper tier blocks all at the same time, and each block (except the two behind the goal) are about 50% full.

    Re: Get ready for block 551

    Looking at the latest seating plan and counting all the green dots, which indicate empty seats.
    Bottom tier has 279 green dots.
    Middle tier has 96 green dots.
    That's a total of 375 empty seat in the first two tiers.
    According to this we've sold more than the club are letting on.

    Before anyone sez owt, I know I'm sad. lol

    I reckon they read the report from Ticketmaster wrong and have just given out the lower tier sales.

    I understand what you are saying but this is the first time since 1912 that we've been in a Cup final , so no living Barnsley fan has seen us play in a Cup final , tin pot or not

    The club appear to have more control than they've let on. I tweeted the box office saying isn't it about time another upper tier block was opened, as it was now impossible to get two category 4 or 5 seats together in there. They tweeted back 'done' and hey presto Block 551 opened.

    i'm guessing they'll be a dot-to-dot puzzle in the program to keep us busy?

    Looks as though we've sold 1100 + tickets in the last 7 hours (501 + 502)

    They opened up a new block , and then there was a jump for tickets at the front (understandably). Cracking view.

    Why don't they open a few blocks and let the tickets sell from front to back... would make for a much better atmosphere in a stadium that won't sell out.
