If any Ayr fans purchase before cob Wednesday over phone I can bring them up , the reason for Wednesday is that I am away Thursday and Friday and would need to take tickets with me when finishing on Wednesday 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would expect us to probably be allowed 6-7,000 max, if the Duffy train continues full steam ahead demand will probably be even greater for a home ticket 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also like the old school house on woodlands road as the have live sports on all day. byres road is also close or you can get a bus from the city centre 7 60 60a and 61 all take you within 5 minutes walk to the ground 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No_Problemo Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 I have absolutely no idea why we would be “allowed” any number for the derby. Stadiums across the country have been at full capacity for months... as should ours if we can sell that many. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would imagine legal action would be possible if it was denied too, given the precedent set by every single other council area. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South Lanarkshire Jag Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 13 hours ago, Finlay21 said: Don’t know if we are getting more tickets or if that’s all the section we are in can hold , hopefully Partick can clear that up , you would think there must be another way to get tickets , surprised at them selling tickets like this as they have an online ticket sales system Ayr will get as many tickets as they request up to the capacity of the stand(around 2,000). They were asked how many tickets they want and informed Thistle they would only bring 400 fans to Firhill so got 400 tickets to start with the option for more when required. 11 hours ago, ayrunitedfw said: Also worth mentioning that the social club at Firhill is getting used by the players to change so won’t be able to get in there.

Ayr will be changing elsewhere within the Colin Weir Stand. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hursty Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 Is that tweet from VoR suggesting that Thistle are saying its Ayrs choice to only sell tickets that way? Doesn't seem likely if Killie had to do the same. Or maybe I'm just reading it wrong and they can't be arsed giving a reason 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
