Saturday's Game!
 

Plenty of interest, according to Twitter, a few Bury and Blackburn fans want tickets.

The club are asking everyone to try and buy tickets before Saturday to avoid long queues...Supporters Club shop is open tomorrow at 9am and also extended office hours at the ground are going to be released tomorrow!

Let's get everyone from Accrington up to The Wham on Saturday and give the boys what they deserve, Surely every fan could encourage a newbie to come!

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Should be open today with it been bank holiday!! With most people off would make more sense :)

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Fantastic and best of luck . Should be a cracker and especially with Blackburn fans and even some from Manchester ( Bury ) wanting tickets. Hyndburn & district needs the feel good factor and you lads are doing just that !

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Mab great idea; but there are only 5 members of full time staff. Are they not entitled to a day off like most on here?? Even Coley's given the players the day off!!

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Yes course you are mark and I wasn't having a dig or owt mate. I think in the past the ticket office was opened for a couple of hours just in case :)

Glad to see the BBC website's headline on League 2 is "all across" the drama as it reaches its final week.

Well done to neighbours Burnley on gaining promotion today.......
Let's make it an 'EAST LANCS DOUBLE' on Saturday...:jimbo::mosher:

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Yeh well done dingles, now lets us do it.

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Congrats to the Clarets and their fans.
It's a long way down to Charlton (as I hope we'll discover next season) so come on down to The Crown this Saturday.

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

people with flexi tickets, will there be a facility this week to exchange tickets before saturday's game to avoid long queues?

lancs dave, will you have flags on sale for saturday?

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Well, they've sold their full allocation of tickets for The Valley. Is it still The Valley these days?

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

The Valley of Doom this season.

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

With regards to flexi tickets. These do not guarantee you entry into the match. Please take your flexi ticket to the club to be exchanged for a match ticket as soon as possible.
Also we are encouraging fans to buy tickets before Saturday, not to avoid queues but because we believe they will sell out before Saturday.

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Gutted that the Jack Barrett stand is sold out. Is it only standing tickets left? I won't be able to stand for a full game, especially with a 3 year old. :-(

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

McKayz you need to PM stanleyhouse ASP

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Have done. Thanks!

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

There are seats in the Clayton End available. Contact the club tomorrow to avoid disappointment.

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Will ring tomorrow morning and keep everything crossed.

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

What time does the club open to buy tickets?

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

:) Here you go Tickets for Saturday’s home clash with Stevenage will be on sale from Tuesday to Friday between 10am-7pm and from 8am on Saturday – subject to availability – from the club offices.

They will also be available from 8am daily from the supporters shop in Accrington market.

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Got tickets. YES!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Mr.T as a former Stanley fan of the year runner up and a elite contributor to accyweb, can you put 4 aside please and I will be up for them this afternoon?

Thank you

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

only 4 days 5 hours and 8 mins to go.

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Could Saturday be our attendance record beating (correct me if I,m wrong) 4368 v Colchester 2004.

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Clayton End sold out !!!

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Aaarghh! Has anyone got through to a human at the club on the phone this morning? I e-mailed yesterday and put a message on the answerphone at 10-01 this morning, I wonder how they are dealing with these various advertised ways of getting tickets?

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Mother in law has just been down and said it was absolute mayhem. We e-mailed to reserve tickets and have been ringing since before 10am this morning but again to no avail, think they've probably taken them off of the hook. Apparently no e-mails or voice mails have been replied too and only tickets left now are on The Coppice End, so looks like we're going to have to stand on there:mad:

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

I doubt it! ......................not very many seats in 2004, mostly standing on the far side, both ends and over half of what is currently the main stand ......perhaps just under/over 4,000?

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Concerned both my friends and I who have been to 10 plus games could miss out because we don't live local and can't get through to the club.

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

I know what it was like in 2004 but the capacity is still 5057 unless reduced on police advice and way sales are going I think this could be a record crowd.

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

How many you need my big lad ?

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

I finally got through at about 1230 and am on a list to be rung back for payment details - so not going anywhere for a while. I hope this means I'm guaranteed my 2 tickets - Mrs Chimer not thrilled at prospect of standing in the rain on the Coppice End though :D

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Nothing's going to rain on our parade mate, I bloody hope not anyway cos that's where me and Ange have got to stand:)

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Ah, maybe I'll get to meet our champion before she's deposed - and you too of course :D. I suspect I'll be wearing a Viking helmet with pigtails and a St George's cross :rolleyes:, as it seemed to do the trick at Wycombe :eek:

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

You were sat next to Ange at Wycombe and spoke to us in the concourse, I had the stupid flowery hat on whilst Ange is the pretty one ;)

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

See you there, was sat next to you at Wycombe.. make sure you wear your Viking hat, good value. We had a nightmare getting tickets after reserving on e-mail yesterday.

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

If I remember right and I'm sure someone will state other wise.... Main stand (jack Barrett stand) holds 1200 Clayton end 1600 combined siting and standing Whinney hill 600 sitting coppice ie away end 1500 standing with 157 standing on whinney terrace. 5057 total.

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

I'm sure police advise was 4500????

The only game I ever remember being an official "sell out" was Satanage in the playoffs???

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

well I sure hope it a better ref than on that day , when he blew for full time he did it in corner of the pitch and then legged it......speaks volumes. Stevenage owe us one.

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Small world, etc, etc!! :D Hopefully will see you both then :)

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Ain't chuffin' buying that:)

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

The dvd I mean, see you Saturday mate, we could both have crap hats :D

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Being down here in t'netherworld I was wonderin' whereabouts they are putting the handful of Stevenage fans and if I'd get away with nipping up the road and buying a few tickets from their allocation?

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Got to be somewhere in Whinney Hill hopefully in the houses, serves the moaning buggers right ;)

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

What about in "The Whinney Hill Quarry" underneath tons of recycling waste!
heh heh!:dflam:

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Got to say I'm not 100% happy with what's happened with mine and my father's tickets. My dad had the forethought to buy them the week before the Morecambe game. He bought the Morecambe, York and Satanage tickets all at the same time. Happy in the thought that we could sit down and be a part of Stanley's history.

Now my father is disabled and I go as his carer and we need to sit to watch the game. This has never been a problem previously, in fact we have our own usual seats. But on Sunday I see something on here about reserved seating (a decision made after we purchased our tickets). So we phoned the club to just make sure we were ok to sit. To be told the tickets say Clayton End Terrace and there's nothing we can do.

Not happy Accy Stanley, if there's anybody from the club reading this can you please try and sort something.

Mr Matthew

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Total sellout just announced. Not sure what they could do but if you can put it out on facebook or twitter I'd bet somebody would swap you for standing

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Are you a season ticket holder???? Obviously the game was going to be a sell out and surely you would have realised all seats would be reserved beforehand?

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Not 4 weeks ago Smudge, there wasn't an option offered for seating at the time.

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Hmm interesting. I got mine I think 2 weeks ago from the Market stall and they had a seating plan etc

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

I bought mine from the club shop after the Morecambe game and, similar situation, I've ended up with standing tickets for me and my 3 (almost 4) yr old. I actually asked about reserved seating a couple of days later at reception and got told they didn't bother with it in the Clayton end.

First I heard about reserved seating was the post over the weekend. I tried calling but by the time I got through the Clayton end had sold out.

It's not ideal as I will now probably have to hold him for the game so he can see. But other people in this situation may not be as lucky.

It is what it is, but I guess it could have been handled a bit better.

I'm sure you'll both accept that, with a sell-out, the 'usual' may not always be possible.
However, I always understood that you could choose to stand or sit on the Clayton End. I'm not sure if Chopper's reference to 'not bothering' means that approach will still apply on Saturday or whether you either stand or you sit where you're allotted a specific seat number (do they even have seat numbers on the Clayton End?).
If that's the case, then get there early to get a seat.
But whatever the arrangements, knowing Stanley fans and Accrington folk, I'm sure there would be someone in a seat who'd be willing to let a disabled chap and/or a small child sit down if they were asked politely.
I'm lucky enough to have secured tickets for the Clayton End but don't know and don't care if I'm standing or sitting. But, if it's the latter, I'll be happy to swap if I see someone who's in more need.

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

I personally believe there will actually be a few seats free on the Clayton End. I assume there'll have been people who wanted Standing but had to make do with seating tickets once the standing section sold out. I doubt those people will stay in their seats and not attempt to get in the crowd.

I've seen them attempt to enforce "You have a standing ticket, you have a seating ticket" in the past and it didn't seem to work that well - and there wasn't as many people then!

Regardless, as Exile said, I don't think you'd struggle to find anyone willing to give up their seat to someone more in need.

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Yes, of course I accept that.

I assumed that I would just have to get there early to get a seat. Because there isn't normally reserved seating on the clayton end.

My only (minor) gripe is that the reserved seating was only mentioned for the first time this weekend (that I'm aware of?), when tickets have been on sale for a few weeks.

A bit of forethought and it could have been avoided.

But I'm not complaining, I've got tickets, we'll be there, that's the main thing! A sore back and arms is a small price to pay to see Stanley in league one. [emoji16]

If we'd all had a bit of forethought, we'd have had a few quid on Leicester and Stanley :o :)

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

I don't think anybody ever thought this would happen, definately not 4 weeks ago.

Blame Trevor Kettle, Stanley would have been up now had he not screwed up :)

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Managed to get 4 tickets from the market hall shop after pulling up at the club shop and seeing a long queue out of the door!

It's the first time I have visited the store in the market hall and it's a real credit to the club.
Great staff, good stock and competitive prices.

Thanks again to the staff who were still on site at 4.30pm and selling tickets, much appreciated.

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Most of he seats on the left of the Altham End seem to be taken up by those coming to watch the half time kick-a-bout. My Season Ticket has a seat number on even though I ticked standing, not sure if many others are like this or if it means anything?

Does the Whinney Hill stand have seat numbers and will it be open? I tend to go there if there is a big crowd as access to the Altham End standing is a right ball ache if it is busy and too many people are penned in between the bars.

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Thanks to the couple of accy webbers who have offered me the option to swap tickets. Much appreciated, I will be in touch at a more decent hour.

Now all I need is to get in my lucky seat B25. 2 games not in it and 2 losses against Pompey and Wimbledon (missed the Oxford game).

Does anyone know if the tickets/seats are numbered?

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Seats in the Jack Barrett stand are most definitely numbered, cannot say for sure about the seats in the Clayton End or Whinney Hill.

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

I would think Clayton End are or you wouldn't be able to allocate season tickets

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Are there any tickets left I was going to take my Daughter again after going to the last 2 home games. Someone at work said they had 2 tickets from someone at Whatmores for free not that I minded paying £15 quid for the pair of us as she's under 12 however these don't seem to have materialised :( wish I'd just bought them now.

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Don't forget to be on the wham for 2:30 sat!!

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Is there any other place to be pal :D

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

I'm getting nervous now(Like i haven't been nervous all week:rolleyes:) Would we all settle for draws all around..i would! I hope the new fans who're making this a sell out don't get on our boys backs if things aren't going our way. Patience and tactics will see us over the line.

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Need to get behind the boys from the start, like at Wycombe, The last thing they'll need is more pressure from the stands!

We've got this! Believe!!

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

I imagine we will be nervous but so will oxford and Bristol rovers. they have to better our result whatever it may be. plenty of twists and turns through the game. hope that all the turnstiles at the jack barrett stand will be open. only 2 recently and this will not be sufficient.

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

If I could send a message to our lads I would say ." to the world you are just Accrington Stanley but to your fans Accrington Stanley you are our world. Good luck for tomorrow , you are almost there.

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Stevenages recent results combined with a hard bobbly pitch,am I the only one who's twitching??,this ain't going to be easy :(

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Last time we were this confident for a game was Morecombe....

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

You're definitely not the only one F19, only just recovered from last week's game & the dread felt until that goal went in, hope it's not as nervy as that tomorrow but it probably will be - shows how far we've come when we'd be disappointed to be in the play-offs! :o

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Hard pitch?;). Have faith, i bet those sprinklers have been getting some serious use these last few days!

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Like others have said, the team needs to have 100% support from the moment fans arrive at the ground. I can't wait.

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

This is like our cup final.

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Looks like a few of us got tickets for each other and now have some adult spares for the coppice end

Anyone interested in buying one or more face value , please get in touch

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

I'm twitching and I won't be there to enjoy the sensation of being untwitched ( Is that a word Exile ?) by the Reds in whom I and Alfred.E have supreme confidence !.

All the best to our Team and every one of their fans !.

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

C'mon, admit it, how many of us breathed a sigh of relief when the Wimbledon manager was awarded manager of the month? I know I did, at least that is one monkey not hanging over us tomorrow afternoon. However, like most (if not all), I have had the pre-match nerves all week. Will be glad for the final whistle tomorrow afternoon, regardless of the result, to know whether we will be play-offs (which I hope not) or in League 1 (which I hope we are).

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

I am really nervous. Looking forward to it though. Just wish we had seats in the main stand as my 3 year old daughter does not understand that we won't be sitting near "Football Grandad" aka RevivedRed :D

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

On TV in Serbia/Slovenia/croatia! Sportklub2 can often be accessed thru semi-legal streaming sites, if you Guys in Germany, Kiwiland etc cannot find other means!

Message for Kiwi John and Dave in Germany.........
You can get really cheap flight tickets to SERBIA but they are only ONE WAY tickets!:D

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Yeah! Thanks for that, but I think I'll pass on that one Choirboy. :D

That said, I could probably drive there from here but I don't fancy coming back with a car full of gimmegrants. ;)

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Having a panic. Although I bought a ticket for my friend for match tomorrow a couple of weeks ago and stipulated Clayton end (wasn't sold out then either) I stupidly didn't look at it properly. Just got my season ticket out and ticket ready and noticed its for the coppice grrrrr. Anyone willing to swap a Clayton end ticket for a coppice end one?? Pleeeeaaassseeeeeee

I am so annoyed with myself for not checking at time but didn't think I needed to!!

Re: Saturday's Game!
 

Under11 hours till k/o and history. I can't wait. Off for an afternoon snooze so as I can get through whats gonna be a long,boozy night.
C'mon you REDS

Re: Saturday's Game!

Re: Saturday's Game!

Re: Saturday's Game!

Re: Saturday's Game!

Re: Saturday's Game!
