Home Grand Final - how to get early access member tickets!

[turbo]

Okay. Who should get them?

IMO it has to be a case of first in best dressed. The logistics of holding those seats is a problem - how long for? if they're not taken up are you offering better seats to the public than members who jumped on the presale? Does it stop people around them bringing someone extra? In your situation from what I can understand you wouldn't be getting your usual seats anyway with those extra people.

I get what you're saying and the impact on some people personally sucks but I'm not sure it's practical to do things differently.

scalpers paradise

Do you really think tickets are being scalped? This isnt Taylor Swift with a rabid fan base and months to sell them, it's an A league grand final in Gosford with less than a weeks notice. And they would have needed a member code.

Another thing I want to know is where are the Victory fans going before the match?
So this Gosford virgin knows where to avoid.
I know here in Adelaide the area gets a huge police influence in the area every time the Victory play as they went on a destruction spree a few times.

Not sure that has been determined but in the past they don't behave to us like they do with Sydney or Adelaide
However, there will be a few dickheads.

Anyone know if there will be a live site (or sites) on the coast other than the stadium? That would be a way of sharing the experienc.

As Pete said, one in Gosford is in the works, Leagues Club Park.

Personally, I think this is a great option and next best to being inside the stadium. Still share in the atmosphere etc.. pretty certain you should still hear ground announcer Pete!! 😀🙏 (@priorpeter .. do you still get the gig???)

Good place for ticketless Vuck fans to let off flares

Would be cool to have them spread across the coast at like the entrance memorial park and terrigal etc, for all those fans, especially families that can’t get to the game/afford tickets

Great idea. I have friends who have membership but can’t afford tickets for the Grand Final. An option to watch and be close to the atmosphere would be a nice option for them

Good that you get to enjoy the game but it won't be the same with some rando ground announcer

Cue chants whenever rando starts chirping..........."You're just a shit Pete Prior, you're just a shit Pete Prior etc etc"

Yeah i feel conflicted, but I probably made my bed when I turned down the gig last year. In a way, glad the decision was taken out of my hands as my heart is absolutely in the bay regardless!

Would have loved to have helped you cuz but I got royally shafted as well. I sponsor these clowns and didn't get looked after at all.

But you said you were never drinking again?

Once more into the fray,
Into the last good fight I’ll ever know.
Live and die on this day,
Live and die on this day.

We few, we happy few, we band of brothers;
For he to-day that sheds his blood with me
and drinks his dreadful stadium beers
God's peace! I would not lose so great an honour

 

[Corsair]

Only able to buy one ticket. Trying for the extra ticket saye my code is invalid - allowance exhausted!

Did you share it previously and someone reused it?

 

[Forum Phoenix]

And how do you square these thoughts with you also wanting to buy extra tix for non members, who in theory could chew up and take member seats which surround yours?

Serious question.

Easily squared. Would have no expectation to be able to buy other allocated members seats either and would tell family or friends have to sit elsewhere. Have done so before.

This
APL have no interest in members feelings or enjoyment of the day.
They just want people's money

I agree with both this and Dianod's post. And think I'm under few illusions as to why.
