Hi chaps
I am also looking for a homeleg ticket.
Absolutely gutted at the moment, been working on call since monday and simply havnt had the time to get my ticket.
I really cant miss the last game at christie park, ive been going since ive been 5 years old and to miss the last game.. i would never be able to forgive myself!
Anyone who can help, or knows of anyone selling ticket preferably north stand, please do not hesitate to ring me. I will also be down at dagenham on sunday if someone is going and is willing to sell.

07540249822

Cheers Chris

Good luck Chris. Doubt if anyone going on Sunday will not go to the last game but you never know, someone's plans might change before Thursday?

just curious say if you got a junior ticket as a adult could you not go in with that and pay the difference on the day ?

Its a good question is that , the answer will almost certainly be NO , the capacity will be made up of a proportion of junior / adult mix [H & S]. But.... I'd pop into the ticket office or phone up and ask them very nicely ; I wouldn't wait till match night you'll definately get a NO at the turnstile.

i suppose if you went to the club shop saying theres been a misunderstanding and your prepared to pay the difference to have the ticket amended. cant see there then being a problem


this is just a option some desperate people might not have thought of when searching for tickets

Surely this cant be correct

This type of scenario would make the task of arriving at a safe capacity for any venue impossible to calculate, how on earth can they decide on any relevant proportions in the first place and then sell to that capacity, ie sorry no senior tickets available but we have 250 junior ones to sell

Re: Surely this cant be correct - No I don't think it is !

No I thought about that after I'd posted it !

The capacity is the capacity regardless of proportions Junior/Adults/Concessions - this should increase the chance of an upgrade I would of thought , infact the more that upgrade Juniors to Adults the better for revenue !!!

A slightly different problem to Blackburn Rovers with their automated ticketing system and 'certain' away supporters who are made up of VERY large proportions of juniors !!!! They then have to put people on the turnstiles to check whether they are all juniors - allegedly !!!!! ????

No ... We may have given you false hope I'm afraid - the thread has turned into a bit of a discussion about somebody who already had a Junior ticket and wanted to 'change it' into an Adult ticket - would it be feasible to do it on the night or at the club shop OR would the club not allow it full stop ????????
