I'm guessing the relaxed manner and total silence from the club about details of the tickets for the away leg is to balance out the rushing out of tickets for the home leg.
Train tickets direct from Shipley were £22 return, they are now £35 return or £33 if you don't mind getting back till after 10.30pm.
If its not one clownshow it's another. I mean how hard can it be to say if you have X points you are in the loyalty bracket so go ahead and sort your travel out, with a notice like tickets go on sale after the game Sunday.
I've driven most games this season but if I ran a coach I'd be a bit pissed off that nothing has even been communicated from the club so that I had a bit of confidence I could fill it.
As a club we are still tinpot when it comes to the most basic of tasks.

I don't know if it's Carlisle's fault, ours or both but why am I not surprised.

I don't know if it's Carlisle's fault, ours or both but why am I not surprised. Someone tweeted the official Carlisle account basically having a go at them for not sending us the tickets and they replied to say that they were sent to Bradford on Monday so it’s Citys fault. As others are saying I can understand not putting them on sale yet so as to ease the pressure on the ticket office after the fuck up on Monday but they could easily announce selling arrangements.

I don't know if it's Carlisle's fault, ours or both but why am I not surprised. It appears City have been sat on the tickets since Tuesday. No doubt they are brainstorming some way to flog some more loyalty points via the tea bars, club shop etc to milk the situation.

Well for the complete silence last week until Saturday, buying them this morning was straight forward. It's likely to be a shitshow tomorrow as a handful of tickets remain for the free for all.

This fucking club man So you have some even though it was saying sold out, you just had to know someone in the queue. I guess the hamster for the ticketing website just gave up.

I jumped onto the site at 8:35 and added two tickets to the basket. Kept refreshing the page until the loyalty point requirements were lifted but five minutes to nine I refreshed again and got a sold out message. Kept refeshing and finally was able to buy two tickets a few minutes later. I wasn't too fussed but my dad offered to pay so fuck it. If I go up there and we lose after I've had to listen to two and a half hours of simply red and genesis al fucking slap someone

Yeah I have some now, if you notice the club haven't announced its sold out either but as per usual they haven't bothered to tell people the ticket office still had some. People haven't bothered to queue because they thought they'd all be taken by people at home in their pyjamas and people online are getting the sold out sign when they haven't (hadnt).

Well at least you are sorted, as for others..... £200 quid on memberships and no tickets.

This fucking club man I had a mate who tried to buy them online but just gave up the ghost after refreshing multiple times. City's 'back end' ticketing operation is probably some guy feeding punch cards into BBC micro Just give the queuing fans a 1 or 2 hour window then put any remaining online?

At least if you couldn’t buy online you couldn’t get your bank account emptied by some scammers, unlike in 2013.
