I havent sen any confirmation that tomorrows sold out completely.
The Sold out signs for Spurs were up a few days before the game and that was on Sky.
Seems strange.

I think that the multi-buy is to blame. There are still tickets left.

as if it hasn't sold out.
though you'd think the multi-game system would of got more people in for tottenham, as when you had to buy a chelsea ticket it was a tottenham ticket or sunderland to go with it. so i don't think the multi-game system is to blame.

Arsenal Tickets Still Available
Posted on: Fri 31 Oct 2008
Tony Pulis is calling on supporters to once again pack the Britannia Stadium.
Tickets are still available for the Arsenal game tomorrow and the City boss believes another full house will give the Potters a great chance to pull off a result against the Gunners.
Speaking to stokecityfc.com Pulis said: "There are a few tickets left so I urge all supporters who don't have any to buy now.
"I think people thought the game had been sold out but there are tickets available.
"If there are supporters out there who aren't doing anything tomorrow afternoon, please get yourselves down to the Brit.
"It'll be a great occasion, and for those who haven't been to the Britannia before, it'll be smashing for them to come along and just feel the atmosphere that our home supporters generate.
"It's more people that make the atmosphere so great and I think the fans have an understanding at the football club, especially now that they have a big part to play in what we are trying to achieve this year.
"They really have got behind the players and the club and it's a smashing feeling at the moment."
Pulis is hoping that the quality of the opposition will provide a mouth-watering prospect that fans cannot afford to miss.
"It's a smashing game in respect of the size of the club and the way they play their football.
"There is a massive aura about the club and they have fantastic players.
"As I've said before, the opportunity of seeing players like Fabregas tomorrow will be fantastic for the supporters.
"They've got a great team and they've been in the top four of English football for years now.
"They're a fantastic football club and you can't take that away.
"We're at home, we'll hopefully have 28,000 there and we're really looking forward to it."
Tickets can be purchased from the ticket office at the Britannia Stadium or by calling the ticket line on 0871 663 2007.
Supporters are reminded that the match is on the multi-game system and must be purchased along with a ticket for the Hull City match on Saturday, November 29th.

I know a few who aren't going because of the multi-game and money issues.
I would like to see them give you 2 choices as standard for the multi-game. I don't really see the issue with having a choice of west brazil or hull, or any reason for them to want us to go to hull rather than brazil game. I know it was relaxed for chelsea/sunderland because sunderland was mid-week, but if they are wanting as many supporters as possible for every game then i think a bit more flexibility would help.

Hull and the West Brom game are more important than the Arsenal game.
I can't understand why people whinge about this multi game system. Most supporters would be able to attend both games as they are on Saturday's anyway. Just manage the cash.

Why not just put the remaining tickets on sale tomorrow for just the Arsenal game if there are issues with the multi-buy. I know if people think that is going to happen then some may hold back until buying until the last minute but they are taking the chance they won't get a ticket at all if it did sell out.

unfuckingbeliveable
"Manage the cash," "anybody not going tomorrow needs a damn good excuse"
Christ how quickly we became premier league supporters.
Some of you don't live in the real world £37 for tomorrow and then £27 for Hull, some people live from week to week and £64 out of it might just might be a little too much for many
That I suppose is no excuse in the greed league and something that Scholes et al have no knowledge or concern of

If there are only 300 left they should find a couple of schools in hard up areas and give some kids the memory of a lifetime. Stoke fans are giving their all this season and its costing alot more than last year. I think it would be a superb advert for the club to be seen giving something back to the community. |

And your point is
This area is one of the lowest paid in in Britain. How come the dullards who run the club don't understand this. I know supporters, supporters who have supported the club through thin and thinner, who simply cannot afford to go.
And to read things like "manage the cash" and "You had better have a good excuse" off dipshits who simply do not live in the real world does not help

Without the multi game arrangement don't you run the risk of genuine week in week out fans missing out on a ticket cause some dad wants to take his Arsenal supporting kid to a game? The club can't really win on this one imo. They're always going to upset someone. Fans know when the big games are and now know to expect this arrangment. Hopefully this gives the guy who lives week in week out time to sort things out so he can pay his 64 quid. |

This shows that our fan base isn't as big as people think , no point filling corners in if we can't fill our own ground against the best footballing side in the world.

What do you want.........................the same 12,000 die hards who have been there since time began or a sellout of 24,500 Stoke fans singing their arses off to let the 3,000 travelling Arsenal fans know they have just entered a place they are not going to enjoy much? The premiership may have bought what you term 'glory hunters' but its also brought back fans who had started to do other things instead. They are all people we want to stay around if we do go back down so that the club can compete financially if the premiership gravy train dries up. Virtually all the ex premiership sides in the Championship now have crowds in the 20k's........when do you think they returned to the fold? |

The lure of the premiership got me back to watching Stoke and has reminded me of what I have been missing all these years. Whilst I doubt whether I will be able to afford a ST next year I will still come back to as many games as I can regardless of what league we are in. |
