New Stadium Details And Discussions

Not sure all ST holders will pay for City tickets. Will be more available imo. I know of 2 people already not going/taking them up.

I was hoping for both as they're both before my surgery. Really wanted to experience a proper first team game before then otherwise can't get to one until next season. Desperate for City now.

I still think they won't look seriously at this until they have extracted the potential profits from Phase 3 and used it to reduce debt. With that still unresolved, it reduces the sale value of the enterprise.

You've mentioned this a number of times before; it sounds interesting.

I'm sure you've already got a post that explains the location, time to completion and potential profits generated from this phase of the development.

Any chance of linking to that post? Thanks.

I wonder how many full capacity events Wembley stages in a year. The only sports events it gets full gate receipts is England which must be about 5 or 6 games a year. Everything is shared receipts.

I have vague memories of a few years ago where their accounts reporting said the biggest money spinner was concerts. They made something like £250 million from 32 concerts.
So it was only around £100 million from all the other events put together.

But I also believe they are pretty much a non-profit organisation whereas we can target the biggest payers.

£8m per concert seems a lot . Unless that figure is before the promoters cut which it probably is.

Since we our debt currently stands at £637m and we had already paid hundreds of millions on the stadium it is understandable why they quote £1bn.

I know why they do it, but it’s wrong.

Yeah ONE BILLION POUNDS is more dramatic than 637m for headlines.

Actually completely forgot about the Huddersfield game on 13th April. Although it's the first first team Saturday/weekend game at the new ground, it's also 12.30pm kick off. How likely are people to go for that?

 

[CarrickSpurgus]

There's also the chance to get a ticket on the club's ticket exchange, probably not many but I'm sure out of 42000 ST some can't make it .

I think it’s pretty likely everyone will go for every game this season mate

It does seem silly that Hotspur + members didn't get all the allocated tickets yesterday. You should get that priority that is advertised with the membership. It still would have sold out and I'm sure some Hotspur + members would have missed out too. At least they would go to the higher paying members which seems only fair. One of the main reasons I went for the top membership was to stand a better chance of getting to the new stadium this season. Of course it's a lot harder now that it opens with only a handful of games left. I can't make the Palace game and not going to try for City as I am going to New York next Weds and get back Tues morning (think I'll be too knackered for the City game). So with only really 4 games left (maybe a CL semi but highly unlikey) I am just going to have to try for each of them in order.

I like the USA ticketmaster queue much better than the donut. When I ordered my Wrestlemania ticket it showed a little dude on screen walking along. At least with that one it shows how many people are in front of you like this one below;

I understand the complaints that the website can be a **** a lot of the time. But what the fuck were people expecting? It's the first ever first team match at the new stadium...

If you want a guaranteed seat, get a season ticket. Unfortunately everything else is a lottery.

 

[KingKay]

Managed to get a ticket for the Palace game through the Thomas Cook packages.

£329 ...

Still less than my right bollock, which i would have quite happily traded

They shouldn't be charging £45-50 for a membership when only 7000 tickets per game are going to be available to members.
There's a pretty good chance you could go a whole season as a member and not be able to get a ticket.

I was caught in two minds with the membership. Not going to pay £45 for what is effectively 5 home games, but I was guaranteed a Palace ticket via my brother in the US if I did take up the membership.

I missed out on getting ticket yesterday as a Plus member , did more tickets got sold this morning.? If so , i thought plus members has priorities over ordinary members.

Yeah the likelyhood of getting a 'cheap' ticket was always going to be difficult unless you got lucky.

Good grief. What do you get with that?
