Leighsterrr Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 For those that travel away regularly and know how the allocations generally go...would I have much chance of getting tickets as a season holder that's not travelled to an away game? I don't usually go to away games as I'm on the island and don't know anyone to travel with generally so just trying to get an idea of my chances...if there are any Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spyinthesky Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Last time I went to watch Saints at Anfield it was a 1-1 draw with Mane scoring our goal. I guess the away end has now been completely remodelled as a consequence of the new stand behind the goal. Anyone got an idea of the views from the different tiers?

Leighsterrr Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 If I get tickets I'm coaching up to London for £10 return, then travelling up with a mate from there. Back to his overnight then head back down to the island on Thurs lunchtime Would love to do the league games but don't know anyone who travels yet. Just always wanted to do a game at Anfield!

Tommy Mulgrew Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 According to LFC, we last beat them in the FA Cup in 1924/25, 1:0 in round 4 at the Dell. We won 4:1 in round 2 in 1902. But we have lost each time more recently. This is our last chance to keep the period of FA Cup losses to LFC below 100 years. Another incentive to add to our present unbeaten run, provided it lasts that long of course. If only! We live in hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint In Cornwall Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 Many memories of my trip to Anfield in 1971 for the identical fixture. A special train ran which I caught from Eastleigh.

One thing i'll find interesting is how many of those that have bought tickets will actually turn up. I've noticed this season when big allocations, or unpopular games are released you get a lot more people buying tickets to immediately move them on on social media. I guess the fact we're getting smaller allocations in the league means it's more incentive to do this so people can qualify for the games it'll be hard to get tickets for. This lad for example bought tickets half an hour after they went on sale and is already trying to shift them, doubt that's travel arrangements or work https://x.com/jchann14/status/1755600557807665154?s=20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't be bothered with the hassle of buying for the sake of it just to sell on though! For this game I'd probably take a couple off someone's hands if I can't get them in my time slot tomorrow though. But will be p*ssed off if I can't get them but see loads of spare seats 🙄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of the regular away travellers I know are going, we’re far more interested in Birmingham, Blackburn etc. Guess it’s a good opportunity for those that don’t normally travel to get to Anfield, which is a depressingly shit place to watch football. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

franniesTache Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 It's really weird how popular this game is, we've played at Anfield loads in my lifetime (usually losing) and didn't even sell out our allocation for the league cup semi final there. But a fifth round FA cup fixture, midweek, in a game we'll probably get tonked and everyone's losing their mind trying to get tickets to. I genuinely don't understand the mad rush, it's not even like it's a novelty for us. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richie Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 (edited) with demand very high I hope the club will take up the offer of a second allocation which is on the table.
