Club announce ticketing: Ticket Details: Play-Off Semi-Final Second Leg

NOt clear from the face of the announcement exactly how many tickets are allowed to be sold. There is a lot of different figures banding about but i think 25% is 4250 or something similar to that. We sold just over 4000 season tickets so, with comps and player tickets etc, there might be a few on general sale but wouldn't expect a great deal.
 
Gonna have to see if I can remember how to assign tickets to my lad through my eticketing. Last time I tried it wouldn't work then I missed out on Fleetwood away cos I was faffing so much
 
Just had to spend 10 minutes trying to explain how print at home ticketing works to my old man and trying to make him understand I’ll be buying them and printing them off at home and that he doesn’t need to go to the club shop... I then also had to explain he can’t necessarily have his usual seat... if it’s that hard for just my dad I really DO NOT envy the staff at the ticket office tomorrow morning 😬

But I’ll be there alongside the stupid old fool and I’m absolutely delighted to say that !! ⚽🧡🤞

My technically incompetent* brother is same LA1

*in his defence he doesn’t have a computer or even broadband so he might be an evil genius at it for all we know! But then its me who has messed with computers and earned a living from them for the last 25 years who might muck it up - who’s incompetent now eh!
 
‘The Club would also like to remind all supporters that the use of any pyrotechnic device (flares, smoke bombs and fireworks) is strictly prohibited within the stadium and strong action will be taken in the event of any such devices being found on any person inside the stadium.’

Not quite the statement I was anticipating but, hey

In the light of a recent serious incident I think it’s a very wise comment.
And if anyone is caught with one inside the ground for me they should be banned from the ground for good.
 
There should maybe be a few tickets left after STH have took theirs....didn’t Approx 50 STH ask for a refund a few weeks ago...so hopefully some there.

..... if only the club had started their reminder with your, ‘In the light of a recent serious incident ...’

No acknowledgement whatsoever is poor. This is a Football Club first and a business second.

Possibly waiting for the conclusion of any investigations. The club will want to know the full facts before it distances itself / acknowledges it in case any response comes back to bite them. A sensible approach in reality.

You really do not know how lucky you are mate, or maybe you do 👍

Cherish every moment - my old man didn’t make the end of the boycott - and I hate those scum for denying me and him many a special BFC moment.

I absolutely do cherish it ! It’s honestly the happiest times of my life watching the footy with my dad and I despise the Oystons for taking a massive chunk of that away from me. I’m very fortunate to still have him around (and hopefully will do for many years to come yet) but I do wonder what i’ll do when he is gone and whether I’ll still go on my own. It just won’t be the same.

I’m sure your dad would be delighted to see where we are now as a club. Those NAPM sacrifices we all made will pay dividends to the fans of the future long after we’re all gone IMO. Seasiders like your dad are heroes. 🙌
 
Can I just check - we have 4 tickets together but aren't in a family or bubble - just 4 mates - will they separate us?

The facts as we know them are that a Blackpool supporter had his hand blown apart by an explosive device on the concourse outside the ground whilst celebrating, along with other fans, the success of Blackpool’s season so far.

What further facts do the club need to say that they were horrified to hear about this, to sympathise with the victim and his family, to say that anyone with information should contact Blackpool Police on xyz number and then to ram home the message that these things are dangerous

Weak not sensible in my opinion so I guess we don’t agree

Meanwhile do the police have a name yet?

Club could be liable given it possibly occurred on their property... and liable as in a fan was seriously injured, fireworks used on their property (something the club has previous for with the FA) and anything else that goes with it.

It may be black and white to you but I’m sure there are sharper minds than you who make decisions and know what they can and can’t do regarding such matters like this.
