Cambridge Tickets Sell Out in Minutes
Monday, 9th Jan 2023 11:10

Tickets to Town’s away game at Cambridge United on Saturday 4th February sold out in minutes after going on sale this morning.

The Blues have been allocated 1,473 tickets for the visit to the Abbey Stadium, the shortest away trip of the League One campaign.

The entire allocation sold out within half an hour of going on sale to Gold members at 10am this morning.

Meanwhile, Town have been given 1,190 tickets for the visit to Bristol Rovers on Tuesday 14th February, which will go on sale to Gold members from Wednesday 11th January. Full details on the club website.

I logged on at 9:58am to get 4 tickets for me and 3 friends who are gold card members. I was unsuccessful, so I would suggest it was sold out before 10am

Presumably the reason we've got such a smaller allocation this year with no standing tickets on half the west terrace is because of the minority of morons who went solely to bait the Cambridge fans the other side of the dividing fence. This is the result - a lot of disappointed real fans. :o(

Something dodgy going on here and requires an explanation by the club as the tickets disappeared in seconds NOT minutes

Had the same problem trying to get 5 for gold card members. was randomly punching at seats but by the time I'd hit the fith one one of the others became unavailable.
Would appear trying to get more than one ticket at a time is no longer an option.

I just just just got 2 tickets - after what seemed like an age of refreshing, seeing tickets selecting and then not being able to buy
I've been to 13 out 15 away games this season.
Maybe time for the ticket office to conduct the sales similar to the Bracknell FA Cup game in the future ?

Clearly some people talking rubbish on here. Impossible for tickets to be sold out before 10 am when they didntcgo on sale until that time. Think you'll find it's more a case of, everyone logging in atcsame time knowing there a limited number and then it being a case of who gets lucky and who doesn't. Thats the problem with online ticket sales, and not just for football. Once ur in that queue to get in, it really does seem to be a case of luck as to whether u get them or not.

Cant believe Cambridge wont allocate more, surely there is a way to widen that terrace gap if that's the issue?

Obviously you were'nt on there trying. I was logged in at 9.57 and seats were disappearing like toppling dominoes.

If they gave us the entire stadium it would sell out in minutes. We are Massive COYB

I was on at 9.50 before they appeared as available.

As soon as they became available I selected the 5 tickets i needed but never got the option to add to basket , ( as someone else has said , having 5 tickets increased the chances of them being selected by someone else)

So I then had to reselect tickets which I did 4 times but still hit the same problem of not being able to add to basket as ticket not available despite me having selected it.

I have been to pretty much every away game this season , ad the last 3 seasons yet now we will not be going to the closest one of the season due to no fault of our own .

The club is doing lots of good things but this is not looking after the fans that go all over the country every weekend and on cold Tuesday nights.

I'm disappointed not to get tickets, but I'm a fair weather away fan. Only usually go to nearby away games, London games, Cambridge, MK Dons, Peterboro. I do feel sorry for those fans who go all over the country following us, but failed to get tickets today. When the allocation is so small, the club should find a way of rewarding those fans who travel the most, and give them priority.

Time to invest in an Away Match Passport for those going to most aways methinks. Mind you - hopefully next season we will back in a league with away allocations which can mostly accommodate our level of away support.

Just a question as I'm not sure how it works but how many tickets can gold members buy

Sydneytown. Only one per card so that was not th problem.
The shop only had 50 physical tickets which were sold out to the first ten people in the queue.

Interested to know how many hold card members there are? Away tickets have never run out before to gold card holders on the first day of sale.

Think there's way more gold card members now than at the start of the season, probably more than there was a week ago. Perhaps they should only be available to purchase pre season. Also I know of people borrowing them from members who aren't going that have managed to get tickets which I find a bit galling.

Whosroundisitnyway. No, I wasn't. My mate was tho, and he got lucky. Literally he just got 4 tickets and it immediately said sold out. My point is, that's what it's like on ticket sites, whether for concerts, shows, but especially for football tickets, with a very limited number available. Feel for those who've missed out but the only other way of selling tickets would be only to sell in the shop, meaning fans would have to queue to buy them. But even then, thered be people who miss out.

They were sold out by 10.01 and lots of people like myself who have been to most away games were unsuccessful. Rubbish from the club how this was handled.

1473 tickets? Allocation by telephone code?

More gold members than tickets available.. people blaming the club for that just because they missed out shows people just like a moan for no reason!

Stop moaning about people moaning!

Was in the ticket office queue at 9.45 with about 25 people, only the first 10 people got tickets.
Only go to 5/6 games a season but know supporters in that queue who go to the majority of away games and failed to get tickets. What's the odds on these supporters going to Bristol away on a Tuesday night

The tickets for sale did appear at 9.59 and were most definitely sold out in 1.5 minutes. Like others I clicked on one available and thought yippee only to find that putting it in the basket delivered a not available message presumably because the sale to someone else was pending. There are indeed far more gold members than the allocation so looks like Derby away is likely to be the only away game that has a sporting chance of getting a ticket. I cannot see that the club can do this differently other than not selling a minute before the due time. Perhaps it was Norfolk time !
