Burnley Tickets

[BeHereNow]

We had almost all of S1E for the Wolves game on 4th May 2013. I wonder how many away fans there were, must've been atleast 1,400.

 

[SurreySeagulls]

The ticket office disagrees.

I give up on the website then No more sad counting for me. Must go back to bed.

 

[Hotchilidog]

104 left. 32 left in S1A the biggest block of seats left 12 in E1A other than only single figures left in a handful of blocks.

Surely they'll open S1E? It doesn't make sense to have two entire blocks for segregation, especially as S1E is in a prime position right behind one of the goals. We're not playing Millwall FFS.

2,000 Wolves. Minimum segregation.

Never understood why the club installed gates to segregate halfway across e1h which would have put the away fans in the corner allowing BHA behind the goal, but instead leave prime seats either empty, or given to the away support.

There might be empty seats in the away end. I think the allocation could be tweaked a bit in the future.

S1A is not very good for home fans when they can watch it on TV.

Highest attendance v Burnley at the Goldstone was 28,762. We might very well exceed that! That was half a century ago.

GREAT stat.

S1D will be part of the Burnley allocation, won't it? So it makes S1E the single segragation block.

It is odd though, why do they need a whole block of segregation? I can think of numerous grounds where two or three rows are used for segregation.

Well, apparently they won't. There will be a whole empty block behind the goal for segregation, unless they've put the Burnley fans in S1E. Mad.

Think we've used about a minimum of 6 rows before, and that was with big away followings. Wolves, Norwich and Arsenal to name a few.

Ours v Brentford last season 4 rows of seats and a strip of our well hard netting .

Thanks for that. Just proves that we can have home fans in S1E, even though if there is a large away following. Bit disappointing really, would've been nice to see the block filled with Albion fans.

Is it not more a case of the concourses not having the segregation rather than outside with the seats

 

[LamieRobertson]

Starting to get a tad excited about this game

Bums on Seats

I knew the crowd was understated 30,003 + at least 20 boys in blue and I bet they did not pay for their tickets!

 

[perseus]

Well, apparently they won't. There will be a whole empty block behind the goal for segregation, unless they've put the Burnley fans in S1E. Mad.

S1C D & E hold about 600 each. If they bring 1400 they would not fit in two blocks, but too many for three blocks? Allows segregation zone.

Paul Barber dropped me a quick email on this to try and help the debate:

- we’ve minimised segregation to allow as many Albion fans as possible to attend Saturday’s game
- we are now all but sold out (there are now only a few doubles and a few single tickets available)
- around 29,300 tickets have been sold (Burnley will bring around 1500 fans)
- section S1E is not “all segregation” as some people seem to think; it’s 50% segregation
- Burnley fans will also be in B,C,D with Brighton fans and segregation occupying A
- we can’t compare our segregation levels to other stadia where there may be "just a line of stewards” as they’ve been operating for decades; we haven’t even held our safety certificate for 5 years yet!
- finally, segregation isn’t just about seating; it’s about services and facilities behind the seating (which will always limit flexibility. By comparison, however, we have some of the most flexible behind the scenes segregation in the UK).
