Hi Steve,
They Europa League is something we have to keep in mind. I think we should wait until it is clear that Tottenham did not reach the 1/4 Final of the Euroleague. The second game is on 19 March 2015.
I have already sent an e-mail to the ticket office. They don't make exceptions. They adviced us to visit a category B or C game because then there will be more tickets available.
Thanks for your advice
Ronald
Underneath the mail I received from the ticket office:
Dear Ronald,
Thank you for your e-mail.
Tickets for our home match against Tottenham Hotspur will go on sale around three weeks before the date of the game. As you may be aware, tickets for this match will be placed on a restricted sale and therefore you will need to have purchased at least one home match ticket since the 2012/13 season in order to qualify to purchase tickets for this match.
Whilst we understand that you would be travelling a long way to come and watch us play, we are unable to make any exception, due to the high demand in tickets for this match.
I would suggest planning a trip around one of our Category B or C matches, as tickets for these kind of games will go straight on to General Sale and therefore you should not have a problem at all purchasing tickets for the match.
If you have any further queries, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Kind Regards,
Debbie
