P**s poor attendance in there tonight.

To be fair most of them couldn't buy a seat in there. In my opinion very poor decision making by the Club.

One was sat next to me in the NU3 area

Probably because he wasn't allowed to buy a seat in the CFS.

Exactly that Leisure not happy but I think he enjoyed it as best you can

The Burnley FC Supporters Groups have contacted the Club to express our concern that the Club didn't put out any information as to what the ticketing situation was going to be in the CF. A very poor way to treat fans.

[Loyalclaret]

Another CFS season ticket holder in the Longside Upper last night.

[insert joke about it being louder in there last night than normal]

[bobinho]

What on earth were they hoping to achieve by only allowing the three end blocks to be used by home supporters?

Surely a better decision would have been to close it to home supporters entirely?

Sometimes our club is so tin pot it beggars belief.

[jrgbfc]

Was completely pointless opening that tiny section for Burnley fans.

This is the very reason three of us boycotted the game because of the lack of respect in not putting any information out about us not being able to pick our normal season ticket seat's, even the fact the small amount of ticket's available in there wasn't put out you had to buy inperson or over the phone, people only found out through forums like this via word of mouth.

Fleetwood fan's shouldn't be put in there for the game with all the fans behind the goal and the best acoustics they should go in the Bob Lord or the James Hargreaves lower

Away fans in the Bob Lord. Can you imagine


Completely agree about the lack of communication. Poor.

When Steve Cotterell was manager he couldn't understand why the club didn't dedicated the whole goal stand to home fans
We should be using the JHL or whatever its called now for away fans

Stan used to say the same but that was when the whole stand was given to the away fans. Looked hideous last night with so few in.

[AGENT_CLARET]

Bob Lord holds around 4k the Fleetwood fans will be offered 15% so about 3.3k, just stick them all in the Bob Lord with no acoustics for the away fans to be heard

I can see why you didn't get a Blackpool ticket with that kind of attitude

So you object to not being able to take your seat in the CF stand last night but are happy to kick out all the ST holders in the BL! Beggers belief!!

Haven't we not got a choice, we have to offer most of the CF to Fleetwood due to FA Cup rules?

[Leisure]

Yes, we have to offer them 3000 but the point I was making was that he's happy for all the BL ST holders to be kicked out of their seats, when at the same time objecting to CF stand ST holders being kicked out of theirs.

[ICL]

To be fair most of them couldn't buy a seat in there. In my opinion very poor decision making by the Club.

The ticket office staff said, the decision was taken following problem at the Crawley match? No further info.

Yeah, that is more than a little out of order

[bfcjg]

Poor decision, consequently had the feel of a pre season friendly to me.

But there isn't anything we can do

We have to give up a certain % and the away end is the CF so.....

Best bet would be to make the tickets for this one as cheap as chips, so Turf Moor is as full as it can be (you'd hope we'd be able to sell out and they should)

[Squazo]

20230207_194915.jpg

pathetic keeping rival fans so far apart, no banter no atmosphere.

should of been a fiver a ticket, quid for kids and filled the ground. this would made it a proper cup tie atmosphere

I think that last nights prices were the minimum amount that can be charged according to FA Cup rules, although I stand to be corrected?

[wilks_bfc]

I think both teams have to agree on the prices as well

We may have offered cheaper prices but Ipswich refused

Bob Lord holds around 4k the Fleetwood fans will be offered 15% so about 3.3k, just stick them all in the Bob Lord with no acoustics for the away fans to be heard

The BLS holds considerably less than 4k. I think it holds under 3k believe it or not.

[Stalbansclaret]

Dies it really matter that much ! We are top of the league and in the FA Cup 5th round. Logistically there is no way the club are going to do something as radical as changing the away end and evicting the BL fans . We’re obliged to give Fleetwood their 3.3k or whatever so let’s just get on with it and beat them .

[gawthorpe_view]

If it was as a result of what happened at the Crawley match, I'd consider it a warning about future behaviour.

[AGENT_CLARET]

So you object to not being able to take your seat in the CF stand last night but are happy to kick out all the ST holders in the BL! Beggers belief!!

I didn't object to my seat being taken I objected to not being informed about it by the club, two totally different things

[taio]

Aye, use the BL stand for away supporters

[IanMcL]

There are certain rules for pricing, I am sure.
The match was very cheap for fans.

[fidelcastro]

Yeah, just stick the old codgers who have ST's in there into the CFS... They'll love it!

[Leisure]

I didn't object to my seat being taken I objected to not being informed about it by the club, two totally different things

And you boycotted the game just because of that! Wow!

[fidelcastro]

I didn't object to my seat being taken I objected to not being informed about it by the club, two totally different things

Wouldn't you have been informed when you tried to purchase it?

[Rick_Muller]

Ok, just so we’re clear. It’s ok to turf out season ticket holders in the CFS but not anywhere else in the ground? Is that what people think?

It’s wrong to not inform any fans they can’t have their seat for cup games, but just because CFS is cheap seats - don’t treat us as second rate fans

Poor description, I should have verified poor decision re not notifying the supporters.

[Wokingclaret]

The BLS holds considerably less than 4k. I think it holds under 3k believe it or not.

Think it used to be 3125, but that was before the extra executive seats were put in

[AGENT_CLARET]

Same thing happened to all the people that have st and normally go in the cfs but that's okay is it

[fidelcastro]

Plenty of other seats to choose from last night from what I saw, even in the CFS.

[AGENT_CLARET]

Wouldn't you have been informed when you tried to purchase it?

No it just wouldn't allow you to click your seating area, it was shaded out, that could of meant anything

[fidelcastro]

The fact it was shaded out rather gives you a clue.

[AGENT_CLARET]

Please explain to me why you think its not right to move people out of the Bob Lond but it's okay in the cfs

[AGENT_CLARET]

Well done in pointing that out, my point is nothing was announced from the club, I don't expect you to get it because its not you that was inconvenienced

[fidelcastro]

Please explain to me why you think its not right to move people out of the Bob Lond but it's okay in the cfs

Because someone suggested giving the whole of the BL stand to away fans, which is totally unrealistic. In the CFS however, which is partly the away end anyway, the FA rules stated that a per centage had to be given over which meant some people would be inconvenienced. Plenty of folk did get a seat in the CFS last night, even if it wasn't their regular one. I'm sure you could have done too, if you were that bothered about seeing the game.

[taio]

Entering and exiting would be problematic for a start. Our manager, coaching staff and players on the bench would get plenty of verbal abuse. Away supporters shouldn't get the best view.

"Plenty of folk did get a seat" there was around 500 Burnley fan's in there last night and that tells you everything
