[Albion] Ajax away allocation

[Hugh Jorgan]

Anyone want to guess how many points for a gauranteed Athens ticket . I'm only 310, gonna be very touch and go I think.

Fascinated to know how many will register ... 2k?

I’ve booked Athens and I’m on 310 which will be fine, one of our group is on 285 which will be tight but think will just be ok. I can’t believe that all the top 1500 on loyalty points will be going given how the cost escalated so quickly. Surely 200-300 at least will be giving that one a miss.

Also for Athens away we could of already qualified for knockout stage

Flights from Bristol to A'dam are still only £140 return but hotels in A'dam are not so cheap......

 

[Is it PotG?]

Also for Athens away we could of already qualified for knockout stage

Or similarly have been eliminated.

Hopefully 2k or less as we’ve booked up on 2 MyAlbion+ and 2 season ticket holders on under 100pts

What’s the guess of the guaranteed ticket for this? Around the 270 mark if Marseille was 230?

Am over 300 so hopefully good for Athens given the crazy itinerary I have booked for it. Will make do with a bar if not lucky. Ajax I am confident i am in.

Category 2: Those who went to Plymouth for the Zenith Data Cup first round tie in 1990.

I was that really pissed one that got removed from the seats and made to stand on the terrace on my own.
Surprisingly I still drink

I think I knew everyone there that night. I'd probably recognise you.

48 of us.

Indeed, likewise. A trip abroad gives us a chance to have a drink and a chat (Le Harve for example)
Normally we just walk past each other in the pub pre match or the half time concourse with a brief
“You alright?”

I'll up the stakes

Middlesbrough v Brighton and Hove Albion, 10 December 1983​

0-0 att. 6037 of which about the odd 37 were Brighton

It was cold, I mean COLD.

Nooo.. 3rd rnd replay away Newcastle Jan 1983.... come on, that has to win.... all the way there and back on the single club chartered coach... only half full.....

 

[heathgate]

If you’re unable to get a ticket for Ajax and still going, one consolation the bars around the red light area are going to be bouncing.

If I don't get a match ticket for Ajax...( unlikely on MA+)... I definitely need to find a decent gathering spot for match viewing and beer consumption.... flights and hotel sorted though.

 

[heathgate]

How many thousands will travel without tickets 5k ?

At least...

Right if we’re talking loyalty points for obscure matches, I’m claiming a home match. On the 26th of January 1979 in the Stop Press of The Evening Argus it was reported that we would be playing a home friendly against QPR the following day (it was FA Cup 4th round day and we were out)
There was about 50 of us on the North end of the west by about 2pm, the gate was wide open.
Then Ron Pavey or someone like that came out and told us QPR had cancelled.
So we all went home

Ajax is going to be more popular and 30%+ less tickets on sale. Would say closer to 300.

Close - it was Chelsea, and the match was postponed due to a frozen pitch:-

Knew Athens would be the tighest one, but was in T1 for both Bournemouth & Brentford last year so hopefully ok. Amsterdam, on par with lots of away games

Remember a lot won’t go to Athens. Last game, December and lots in the top tiers will have done one / two already.

 

[sully]

Enough of that, let’s talk Ron Challis

No doubt you thought he had a good game

In my mind the attendance that night was really low.

I’ll never forgive Challis for that one.

Ah yes, actually I have that programme somewhere, I wonder if it’s worth anything.
What I do remember was it was a nice winters sunny day. Bloody cold though!
