I'm not intending to say "I told you so", I only posted that there would be no problem at all in anyone who wanted a ticket getting a ticket, because many (too many) years of experience made it bleedin obvious.

On that basis I called in on my way home for lunch at 1pm and was the only person at the counter. Got 2 stand tickets, in out, job done. We still have half our allocation which means on a rough approximation, nearly 2000 or so have gone.

Now to me, that's a great response. I know most season ticket holders won't bebothered with the game, and think 2K for an away CC tie against a lower div club is actually pretty decent going. But given there are loads of tickets left - and given we can have more from Fax if these all go - there really is no issue.

Moral - listen to your local Aardvark more.

I sent the Mrs who waited for 1 1/2 hours this morning with the young uns!

I'm not Mr popular at the minute!!

Ha, sackcloth and ashes time for me. Consolation is I was still in bed while fellow panickers were queuing in the cold at Odsal.

our allocation was 30% of 9000, so about 2700. Still going well to shift 1300+ in 1st morning.

[uTicket update:[/u

I have just ventured up to Odsal for my Halifax tickets, picked them up around 1.00pm.

The nice aussie lady (or Sheila in the aussie term) told me that the Bulls still have over half of their original allocation and that the person who is saying there were only 200 left at 10.30am is talking absolute rubbish! (why say there is only a few left and potentially put people off making the effort to go up and collect them)

She also said people had been cueing since 6.30am this morning, I strolled in at 1pm and there wasnt even a cue.

All in all, it seems another mountain out a molehill situation with enough tickets for all that have tried to get them so far!

Dont shoot the messenger D**K!

Did you try the gardens?

If he's a crap messenger, shoot him twice.

No problem getting mine at about 12ish either. No queue or indeed any cues.

Any need for that language?

Your comment of " my friend says there is only 200 left" could well and truely have prevented somebody going to cllect their tickets, I know I had second thoughts about making the journey (telephones were not being answered).

You "friend" really should find out their facts before spreading absolute tosh around!

Dislexica is nott a mater to laf aboot!

I have mine but rang in someone elses behalf as they can't get there until later and they said there were around 1500 left.

From what I'm hearing Fax gave us 3500/3700 but that's not gospel

I don't mind pointing out that I also stated on here my belief that every season ticket holder who wanted a free ticket, would get one.

Not that it was stopping me going up early and not risking it, but I still think that'll be the case.

First person in queue had been there since 7..i askd him as he came out since i know him..i work nights so got there for 8.15..got tickets home and in bed for 10.30..didnt want to take risk.

They took couple of photos first thing..before there was a masive queue...most people turned up at about 9.15..wind was a bit nippy..but hey ho got them now..

Here's an interesting thing with the debate around the ground and the health and safety issues of certain stands, on the ticket it states "ticket valid if fixture rearranged. Issued subject to ground safety and stadium regulations with the right to refuse admission reserved"

Is that standard or something to do with trying to get a stand opened up which has been closed for a while?

Just got mine, plenty left and no queue. Get up there, lets sell this allocation out sharpish, then hopefully we'll be allocated some more and make it a cracking day out!

going once i finish work about 6pm so hope theres tickets left as think will be a fantastic day out hope the bulls fans out shout the fax fans

I will be there in roughly 2 hour

think the queues could build up again as people are finishing work

Anyone know what the safety issue was with the stand? I plan to kick off about it, and claim some compo

Just been to get a ticket they have 1500 left sold 2000.

Personally, think the folk who cba making the trip to Fax when it's free and there'll be a massive Bulls away support there are crackers.

I find this unlikely. The only cracker I know of is Robbie Coltrane, and then I don't think he's a real one. Surely, Bradford police wouldn't employ more than one or two at most? And anyway, why couldn't they get the afternoon off?

Robbie Coltrane - tipped to play Ian Van Bellen in [iBradford Northern: The Movie[/i.

Not free for me but I should be there.
