Perhaps this is something Shrimps Trust could take up with the club?

Don't we have to wait for the actual tickets not the numbers

Chelsea s/t holders could purchase from yesterday with a sliding scale till Monday.
Just hope those of us that are going to Cheltenham for the weekend get a chance of purchase in the window

Carlisle tickets going on sale today so it could be a very expensive week for Morecambe fans just before Xmas.

Has anyone got any info on how many tickets season ticket holders can purchase, I called the ticket office on Monday and was told it'll be 2 per season ticket holder. I'm sure it was only 1 per season ticket holder for spurs.

Club shop staff have said that Chelsea are providing further details to us on Friday, so not really up to us to be able to do anything until then.

Really hope it is two per season ticket holder. We need another two for family down country so our two season tickets would suffice for that!

Just watching Chelsea in Europe. Playing on a frozen pitch at Astana but far too good for them! Currently 2-0 to Chelsea and Astana can’t get the ball off Chelsea! Several youngsters in the Chelsea team including first goal scorer Guiu an 18 year old signed from Barcelona.

I reckon a 0-5 handicap might give us a bit of a sniff. :?

The Chelsea team that's just beaten Astana will be close to the team that plays against us in the Fa Cup

Fair play to Accy

But it's much cheaper than our tickets plus it's only about an hour down the road

Still great effort

Why should ST holders be allowed two tickets? Priority should be given to Morecambe fans, not family of ST holders who don't attend games :evil:

They now live near London and follow us at southern games. Obviously a tad too far to buy a season ticket. On that basis I think season ticket holders should have first dibs on tickets for the likes of them rather than locals who only become interested every blue moon when we have a big cup game!

There's 2 genuine sides to this story, I think if we crack the 3000, then Chelsea will give us more tickets in the Shed

Speaking to a young lad over here who is a Liverpool fan but can never get tickets for their games. His partner tried to get him resale tickets as a present for a Premier League game but was quoted over 200 quid per ticket. He was going to try and get Accy tickets as the only way to watch Liverpool live. I would imagine there will be many more Liverpool fans jumping on that particular bandwagon.

I've been a Morecambe fan for 34 years, and been a season ticket holder for many of them, including the previous 3 seasons, but due to working alot of weekends this season I didn't get one this year, me and my 2 sons are both Morecambe and Chelsea mad, we can't miss this game. Honestly feel sick at the thought of not getting tickets for it.

I'm similar to you CFCJon

Not had season ticket for a couple of years but supported Morecambe since 1979

If I don't get a ticket then so be it.. If I do that's cool

Hopefully when we’ve sold 3,000 Chelsea will have some in reserve to give us extra.Trouble is I guess Chelsea will sell out every game and there’s are already on sale so will they have any extra to give us if required?

Just been looking at Accy forum... Some fans been to the ground today and got 3 or 4 tickets each

So maybe their limit is 4 tickets each

Competition rules state a 15% allocation or 9000, whichever is the lower number. They'd have to give us 6000 tickets if we requested them so we've probably started with 3000 and if we hit that number then they'll release more. They'll keep those subsequent blocks reserved for us but it's unlikely we sell 6000 so they'll then release those areas for sale to their home fans. I'd be incredibly surprised if everyone who wants to go doesn't get sorted.

To have not heard anything about tickets when Chelsea's have already gone on sale is a bit of a joke now. Accy and Bromley (just to name two) have started to sell theirs. Oh and Harrogate

They went on sale to Chelsea season ticket holders on Tuesday whereas Chelsea told MFC that it would be today before MFC heard anything further from Chelsea. No joke. Don't blame MFC. Sit tight...
