Carabao Cup Third Round

Thought the club might have subsidised the coaches

I've looked at the trains and it's a journey down to Euston, across to Liverpool Street and on to Ipswich.
Add ticket, overnight accommodation etc , its going to be an expensive jaunt if I decide to do it.

Think the last time I went there we drew 0-0 which came after a previous away game at Newcastle which was also ended 0-0.
We did both trips in my mates XR3i. He certainly bumped up his annual mileage that season, I recall.

How many tickets do we have for this?

2,900 got mine this morning
Tickets went on sale at 9am today, received an email at 9.50 this morning to say they are going on sale LOL

I'm a little surprised Big Jeff hasn't sold them, to be honest.

My last trip to Portman Road 1994 replay. Lee Mill, Andy Thompson winning 2-1.
Scenes after the final whistle chanting Jack Haywards Barmy Army for an age after the match ended. Stewards ended up asking us to leave as think they wanted to lock up and go home

John Wark played for Ipswich that night if I recall and the state of the pitch was awful.

Sounds like it was a Wark in the park?

It's 2,300 not 2,900.

I'd make your own way there mate... apparently the club only hires **** coaches these days!!!

Thats pretty poor, not even 10%,
I thought cup games was 15% of ground capacity.

Wolves probably thought the max we'd sell is that amount - no point them buying 2,900 tickets for Ipswich on a Tuesday night in the Carabao Cup, would be shocked if we shifted that many.

Im a member as are others who would love to watch wolves away i dont care what day it is on or what time.

Then you've probably been around the block long enough to know we won't have a 3,000-ish demand for a Tuesday night early round cup tie in Ipswich.

Would be a great effort if we shift the 2,300.

Do you reckon it will get to members then mate?

15% is for FA cup games

I’d be amazed if it doesn’t go to general sale! It’s a long trek, stopped over last time, got a speeding ticket on the way home! A14 has to be the worst “main” road outside of Wales, it’s garbage to drive on. Unless they’ve improved it in the last decade massively

 

[Mile End Wanderer]

Cba for this one fair play to anyone who goes

That’s FA cup only

So we accept a lower allocation and still get the 140 restricted view tickets. Can we just open the section at the top of the North Bank, where you can only see the Steve Bull roof, to away fans for every club that sells us tickets like this!

Mind you there's a few home fans who would probably buy them given recent experience!

 

[S G Wolves]

I'm going. Do like a cup game with an end result.

Looking forward to this.. no idea why..

Don't remember many over 1k

When In the Championship we usually got no many more than 1k or less on a Tuesday night, not sure now we are premier lg if that changes anything. have always paid on the night, anyone remember the FA Cup tie when we had 5k tickets for behind the goal. must have been double that on that terrace, Packed in like Sardines that day .

Yep I was at that game we won the replay on the Tuesday night

They`ve cut down on everything, even cancelling the seasonal hotel contract that they signed up to

Only been to Ipswich twice, this being my first visit, Paul Mariner the best header of the ball I have ever seen. Great days, people refer to us thes days as a pack, back then we were a tribe.

I do remember that. It was packed. For the only time watching Wolves I got in without paying as I queues up at the adults turnstile rather than the kid do I was allowed to climb over. Ipswich were top of the league I recall and had just put 7 past Albion. Heartbreaking not to win that day but the Tuesday night replay was excellent.

 

[WickedWolfie]

£20 a ticket + £36.50 coach. Wow!

Anyone going to that on a Tuesday night deserves a medal

I was tempted to do so from the Smoke but the trains are crap!

I was criticized for my tone about Shi. Let's just say that Pinnochio is equally plausible....

Second year in a row we beat Ipswich after a replay in the FA cup
Gould scored with imo was a mis hit cross
